But first, coffee. Obviously.

Yes, the specialty coffee scene is big here too. But as a plus I included some low key less basic betch coffee places, that make you feel like a local, too.

Syra has stores all over town, check the closest one to you and get your flat white with oat milk to start the day right.

365 is a franchise and has a very basic menu - with coffees starting around 1 EUR. I love getting my cafe con leche here in the morning.

Food & Snacks

Of course tapas are a must. However, there is much more to Barcelona’s culinary scene.

These pizzas are my absolute favorite. Each one has a different kind of tomato sauce, I think the Straciatella de Burrata is the best one they have!

There are several Oakberry’s around town, in my opinion it’s the best Açai in Bcn.

This pizzeria is in my neighborhood Clot, and I love it because you can just get a slice as opposed to an entire pizza. The perfect snack.

This gym used to be a Crossfit box. They still offer various WOD classes daily and have fantastic equipment for open training.

The famous US Barry’s bootcamp is available in Barcelona too! Get in the red room and start sweating during one of their classes. I love it, it’s like clubbing but better because you are actually doing something for your body 🥰

This city is full of beautiful and cozy bars for an afterwork drink or a weekend aperol!

It’s in a rather touristy part of town, but I still love the vibe here and the cocktails are great.
