20 Blissful Brunch Spots in Barcelona
The term Brunch was coined in Britain in 1895 to describe a Sunday meal for “Saturday-night carousers” … of which there are of course many in Barcelona.
Brunch
Firebug
Irish couple Rebecca and Paul Coleman, already famous in Barcelona for their popular restaurants Milk and Marmalade, opened Firebug in early 2016. Situated in Eixample, Firebug offers a variety of international tapas sized plates, created with an emphasis on sharing.
La Esquina
La Esquina (“The Corner”) derives its name from its central location on the corner of Bergara and Balmes streets near Plaça de Catalunya. Backed by British chef Alan Stewart and London barista Louis, La Esquina is a “soulful” restaurant with artisanal values and a “Brit” touch.
Alsur Cafe
Alsur Cafe offers a Lo que quieras, cuando quieras (what you want, whenever you want it) service – in other words, you can have breakfast at 11PM or a cocktail at 9AM. This characteristic has been called the “southern” attitude and hence the name Alsur.
Milk Bar & Bistro
Milk was opened by an Irish couple in 2005 and has since grown to be among the most popular restaurants and cocktail bars in the area, frequented by expats and locals alike. The interior is cozy and intimate, with luxurious sofas, gilded frames, antique chandeliers and wallpaper by Australian designer Florence Broadhurst.
