Cervecería Catalana
Barcelona's legendary tapas counter showcasing the freshest Mediterranean seafood
About Cervecería Catalana
Buzzing with energy day and night in the Eixample, this landmark tapas bar serves mouthwatering gambas al ajillo, jamón ibérico de bellota, patatas bravas, and grilled foie gras montaditos.
Renowned as one of Barcelona's most consistent tapas temples, Cervecería Catalana dazzles with glass display cases brimming with daily seafood arrivals from the Mediterranean. Snagging a stool at the wooden counter is part of the quintessential Barcelona ritual: order freshly fried pimientos de padrón, succulent razor clams (navajas), and montaditos topped with warm solomillo steak and foie gras, washed down with chilled Moritz beer or crisp cava.
