C. Reina Cristina, 7 (C. Llauder), Barcelona, Catalunya
Wine Bar · Sant Pere-Santa Caterina i la Ribera · 398 tips and reviews
Libby Garrett: TAPAS :: Elbow your way through the masses for some down home tapas and €2 bottles of pink cava. The greasy spoon equivalent of tapas fare. Cheap, championed, crowded.
Libby Garrett: SUPPER :: Pakistani food because sometimes we get sick of the local stuff. The Chicken Mughlai is to die for. Pair with a cold Estrella Galicia.
C. del Baluard, 38-40 (C. d'Escuder), Barcelona, Catalunya
Bakery · La Barceloneta · 129 tips and reviews
Libby Garrett: This is an AMAZING bakery especially appreciated in this town of crappy bread. :) Stop by here on your way to or from the beach. Picnic with their sandwiches or flatbreads. Market across the street.
Italian Restaurant · El Barri Gòtic · 112 tips and reviews
Libby Garrett: TAKE AWAY :: Amazing handmade pastas, mostly takeaway with a few awkward seats. Hell. Just go to the park. But don't pass by the brownies.
Paella Restaurant · El Poblenou · 204 tips and reviews
Libby Garrett: LUNCH :: Take a stroll down the beach and plant yourself down for a beachside paella and great service. It's hard to find a beach spot with great food. This is the one (and very excellent) exception.
C. Parlament, 39 (C. del Comte Borrell), Barcelona, Catalunya
Café · Sant Antoni · 560 tips and reviews
Libby Garrett: BRUNCH & TREATS :: Like being in Melbourne, but it's the Barcelona fashion crowd. The espresso is the best in town and the pastry chef is a budding talent! Go eat her cakes! All of them!
Ice Cream Parlor · El Barri Gòtic · 4 tips and reviews
Libby Garrett: TREATS :: I know you want chocolate dipped, but I promise you, the purity of these popsicle flavors shines through the best unadulterated. I like mint. Sam prefers vanilla.
