The Best Tapas in Barcelona

One of my favourite seafood tapas bars, without the tourist crowds, in Gracia.Lluritu is that seafood tapas bar we all dream of for our Barcelona trip, with a marble counter, and a menu on the wall with daily specials written on the tiles. Excellent fresh seafood, order the grilled calamar, shrimp, scallops, clams and the tomato and smoked eel salad. Also fish grilled or fried on the plancha. And those olives with anchovy filling with a glass of ice cold sherry, beer or white wine! Nice service, too. The other restaurant, Lluritu 2, is a few blocks away and has a similar menu but a modern interior.

Authentic hole in the wall breakfast and lunch tapas bar in Barceloneta.Wine and tapas for breakfast? Why not, as this place opens at 9 and closes after lunch. No sparkling wine, only cold cheap wine poured from the barrell. A must try is the bomba croquet with beef filling and alioli, the mussels and the calamar. A few tables and a bar. Love this place.

Iconic tapas bar in El Born with great mix of locals and tourists.El Xampanyet is a tapas bar in the El Born district named after the homemade sparkling wine that it serves. Good tapas, both funky and traditional vibes. Great mix of locals and tourist all day long. No reservations.

Fantastic authentic Catalan classic. Not to be missed for tapas and more.A classic institution with a wonderful ambience. From excellent tapas to Catalan dishes both from the sea and land. If you want to choose one casual Catalan restaurant or tapas bar this would be my choice. Very affordable considering what you get.

A cool spot for Natural wine fansThis small bar with a lot of cool energy located in the heart of Gracia neighbourhood has a bunch of different varieties of local natural wine producers. It's perfect to have some glasses there accompanied by some good bites and also for buying bottles to take away.

Explore the origins of Mediterranean cuisineA super restaurant in the Raval that looks to the civilisations that have come and gone in the Mediterranean and what they ate for inspiration. Some interesting use of garums, and nice plays on texture and temperature as you'd expect from ex-elBulli, but also brilliant meat cooking. Take a seat at the counter and marvel at the calmness of the kitchen as you work your way through the tasting menu or a la carte.

Classic - Revisited Tapas Gastro Bar Perfect for sharing as a good Tapas bar, in this case, the atmosphere is quite eclectic Art Deco and modern with a big Bar and open kitchen.

Cool, modern tapas with the best ingredients and a great natural wine selection.An informal place to share dishes and great wines in a cool atmosphere, the 3 partners came from Gresca and opened this new place last December.
