Ever since I first shopping at a MUJI in Japan, I've loved this store! I've since been to MUJI's in…read moreSeoul, Rome, and NYC. I didn't know they had one in Barcelona until I spotted a woman with a MUJI shopping bag on the street! So I finally found it, near Passeig de Gracia metro station. They have so much great stuff here and the prices are quite reasonable. You'll find: - Simple, colourful office supplies - Functional and nicely designed homewares - Travel stuff like mini bottles to put your shampoo etc. in - Toys - Comfy clothing basics (mostly PJ's, loungewear) - Accessories (like socks, umbrellas, bags etc.) Stuff is really well-made with a minimalist aesthetic. It's always fun to browse here and I always find something useful to take home!

I like MUJI. I like it a lot. In Asia, they are fantastic sort of stores. In Europe they have…read morethings I want. In the USA, I don't know why they have different things that are less interesting. So, if you are here at this one and want to cart and ship that nice kitchen table back to California, hit me up on Yelp.

I have a strange obsession with stationery, and am always on the hunt for stationery stores when…read moreI'm travelling. I was lucky to be staying nearby and found Konema on Yelp- I had to make time to stop by. Konema is a very well rounded stationery shop- they offer low, mid, and high end pens along with a large variety of papers, journals, leather office goods, and random other knick knacks you'd expect from a stationery/gift shop. I picked up some stationery as souvenirs to bring home for my friends. They carry a great selection of adorable stamps and washi tapes for a very reasonable price. I was mainly attracted to the wall of pens- when you first walk in, the entire left wall is just pens. The sales lady was very patient as we looked at several pens and let us test whatever we wanted. As we paid, the cashier (different than the floor saleslady) was even friendlier and chatted with us about pens. She even recommended me a brand I had never tried before, and had the floor saleslady take out a pen for me to test- knowing that we already bought what we wanted and the odds of us buying more pens were very low. I tried the pen (and I loved it) but couldn't bring myself to spend more money at that time. The staff were so friendly, I'd go back just to chat with them about pens. My experience was very good here- it felt personal. I'd definitely recommend stopping by if you want to pick up any small (or not so small) pens/stationery/gifts.

Konema is a well located stationery shop just off the Rambla de Catalunya. It features a wide and…read moreinteresting array of products, ranging from quality pens and trendy reading glasses to beautiful, locally made notebooks. The only negative aspect about Konema is that its store manager is without doubt the rudest, most disdainful woman I have come across during my frequent visits to Barcelona. Thank goodness for the kind and professional saleslady, who made the effort to help me find the items I specifically came for!

It was our last day in Barcelona and we were on a mission to find cool gifts to bring back home…read more Las Ramblas is lined with many souvenir shops with neon coloured tshirts, magnets, and mugs. But we were looking for something more local that captured the chic and super creative vibes of this amazing city. We were so happy to have stumbled into this wonderful shop right off Las Ramblas. Think Muji (the Japense chain) with a classy, sassy edge. Beautiful watercolor prints of Barcelona landmarks, catchy, clever wordplay on canvas totes, pencil cases, coasters, cups and more. A must visit if you're looking for unique, affordable gifts to bring back home with local Barcelona flair.

What an awesome store! This is the walk-in version of Etsy (only cooler and more eclectic). My wife…read moreand I were wandering through the streets and alleys near La Ramblas and we're stoked to find it. We bought three small prints, a little fabric cactus and a shirt of the street grid of BCN. Cool music plays in the background while you shop. They have kids stuff, games and clothes. They have a bunch of home decor stuff as well. Won't regret stopping in!
