    Best to sit outside on the beautiful square. Absolutly great taste combinations. For me the best I had in Barcelona(truth to say I was only 3days there)Quite hidden from main crowded turistic places.

    One of the most beautiful year-round terraces in the town,even though in Born it is hidden away from the heavy tourist-track.Great for daily lunch-menu and "a la carte" for night,great stake and duck

    That’s my second visit to BCN and came to La candela 7 years ago. I liked the place and the atmosphere in this plaza. Despite that, Sangria was not one of the good ones in my current visit in Spain.

    A quirky restaurant in the midst of a generally very streamlined tourist route. The decor has a retro feel to it, and they're vast believers in slow food, sourcing most produce locally and organic. Read more

    Sit outside on the Square and drink wine and eat olives what is not to like ❤️

    A hidden gem. Sit out on the square and enjoy the sun. Great twists on food, amazing flavor combinations! Try, like, EVERYTHING!

    Very good. They are a bit long to serve but It's like a familial cooking. Try the terrace and enjoy the salads or solomillos. The 'postre della abuela' it's just heaven on earth

    Cenar en su terraza con encanto es muy especial, cualquier plato de la carta te sorprende. Las pieles de patatas siempre es un buen plato para compartir y el solomillo es espectacular. Recomiendo 100%

    Wi-Fi disponible a La Candela. La comida es rica y los empleados son hospitalarios; ¡siente en la plaça para ver la gente y los alrededores bonitos también!

    Muy buena comida, estilo medio-gourmet francés. La ensalada se sirve por última. Al cerrar la cocina ya no se sirve postre... así que pidenlo con antelación! Prueben el Ceviche de Salmón!

    Para muchos la mejor plaza del Borne, fielmente vigilada por una gran iglesia románica. Descanso al aire libre mientras se observa a la gente que pasa en un privilegiado puesto de control vecinal.

    Linda terraza sobre Plaza Sant Pere, pero hemos ido varias veces y siempre que nos atendió la rubiecita, estuvo ella de muy mal humor. El resto del staff muy atentos.

    Si hasta la dicha critican, que dirán de la comida? Son raciones comedidas y por ello aún más ricas.
