  • Bar Ra

    This trendy spot serves up organic goodies, from yogurt shakes to vegetarian burritos.

  • Picasso, Tapiès and even Woody Allen have dined on Catalan fare at this long-time artists’ hang-out.

  • Dig into superb mar i mun-tanya fare (combining meat and fish) at this friendly, family-run restaurant. Try the meatballs with cuttlefish and shrimp.

  • Boisterous diners pack this Modernista restaurant. Take your pick from a bewildering 60 Catalan and Mediterranean dishes.

  • There’s no better spot in El Raval for an entrepà (sandwich) than this old, lowceilinged bar – opt for one with sausage and Manchego cheese.

  • Dine on fine Catalan cuisine under a Modernista mosaic and dark-wood ceiling by Domènech i Montaner. Try the filet of sole flavoured with orange.

  • In an old warehouse, this café-restaurant, owned (and decorated) by Catalan artists, offers a global menu.

  • Organic Mediterranean dishes (many vegetarian) are served in this airy café-restaurant, which is popular with artists. Contemporary art is projected onto the wall.

  • Tuck into Mediterranean food in a lofty space hung with local artists’ work. Try the ostrich.

  • Vegetarian dishes are served in the Royal Shipyards of the Museu Maritim, to the accompaniment of music and storytelling. There’s a lovely outdoor terrace with live music in summer (Sat).
