Tapas Guide
As many of you ask where asking for the best tapas in Barcelona, this guide will help you !!
There is a great variety of tapas, some gastronomic and others to attract tourists; It is good to know the places before going to a restaurant and more in a tourist district so these are one of the best restaurant near the most visited places in Barcelona, since the tapas are a symbol of Barcelona, they are very good reputation among citizens, tourists and especially when there is good weather ideal to be in a terrace.
One of my favorites is in the Barrio de Gracia; It is perfect to eat something after visiting the Park Güell, it is called “La Pollería Fontana” is a small and typical restaurant that offers quality products but not at an excessive price since the tapas are at prices between 3 and 7 euros and also they have very good wine.
To visit Barcelona you need to walk and try the different flavors of “La Boqueria”, but in this market it is very difficult to choose a restaurant and I will help you. My favorite is “El quim de la boqueria“, the tapas are prepared with fresh products, such as fish or seafood; the prices here are a little more expensive, between 5 and 7 euros, the only problem is that it is difficult to find a seat. If this is the case there is another bar called the “Pinotxo Bar“.
Very close to the boquería is the Plaza Reial, a tourist plaza with lots of atmosphere, bars and restaurants. Close this place is a restaurant “la bodega de Biarritz 1881“, tapas are very good products, people are very kind, And the prices are not excessive for example 20 euros for a person with a glass of wine.
In the Barceloneta neighborhood I really like the “Meson Barceloneta” to eat it is very good, it is opposite the port so you can see the boats, the prices are accessible and going to this place is better to order a Paella, typical food of Spain. Also and here they sell a lot of variety of this, the prices go between 7 euros the tapas and 16 euros a paella per person.
Finally, in the neighborhood of Paseo de Gracia, it is difficult to find a tapas restaurant with good tapas quality and with a good price, there is one called “La cuina d’en Garriga“, it is a bit expensive but it is very good because offers quality products, they are simple and traditional tapas that everyone likes.
