Unfortunately, they weren't really that good. There was more cream than waffle, and the waffle itself didn't taste like anything. The cream had a weird taste; the only thing that was really delicious about it were the Oreos and Oreo bits on top. I also tried my friend's spirulina smoothie bowl, which she liked, but I didn't much. For drinks, I wanted to try the tiramisu coffee, but they were out, so I just had the hot chocolate. It was rich and sweet; I enjoyed it, but it wasn't exceptional. My friends had the Oreo vodka milkshake and the strawberry cheesecake vodka, which were, according to them, absolutely incredible. Unfortunately, the food and drinks I got weren't anything special. However, the vibe of this place is so cute and the service is very friendly!

TLDR: Solid breakfast! ___…read more I had a craving for eggs and this place hit the spot. Shout out to the server because I almost ordered a small breakfast that sounded great till he showed me a pic. I went with the Bagel breakfast with Eggs and ham on top. The bagel was thick and fluffy, not too doughy. They also add some crispy things to the top that added a nice texture and crunch. The coffee was good. Solid. Not excellent. But good. Service was a bit slow overall. Took a while to get our order in, then a really long time to get the food.

It turns out it was a chocolate factory eons ago. Now it's a restaurant run by the same family that used to make chocolates. The decor inside is a mixture of traditional old fashioned and some new. It's a good mix. The service is friendly and attentive. The staff speak English as well as Español and Català. We had a leisurely, late, typical Catalan lunch. We were there almost 2 hours and enjoyed every minute of it. To drink we had a pitcher of sangria (26€), which was a perfect accompaniment to our lunch. The starters were pa amb tomàquet i oli (4.90€) (lightly toasted bread rubbed with tomatoes and oil), and ensalata burrata (16.9€) (burrata soft cheese over thinly sliced tomatoes accompanied with rocket lettuce, sun-dried tomatoes and olives). For the main course we had fidueà negra amb langostino (40.20€) (a black paella but with noodles instead of rice, with seafood). Delicious! For dessert we had yummy Crema de Catalunya (8.5€) (this is like a creme brulee, but a slightly different taste and texture). We recommend this restaurant. You will enjoy it.

I don't even like most olives I've eaten in the US, but I couldn't get enough of Rene's olives. Apparently, we couldn't get enough of Rene's adorable Bartender, Stefano, because we made a point of stopping in to visit and eat Tapas every night. The entire Staff was so nice. The interior is bright, warm and welcoming with beautiful character. The signature dessert is amazing. It is a combination of a flat flaky, but not dry pastry that is topped with a delicious Liqueur. We conducted our own research project to find the best Sangria in Barcelona... I have to say Rene Cafe's was the winner of this quest for the best!

On a recent visit to Barcelona, I visited Velódromo both for a solo dinner as well as breakfast the following day. I loved the food and found the Velódromo Pastrami sandwich, made in homage to Katz in NYC, both humorous in its weird interpretation of the original, and also completely delicious. They DO have an English menu available but do not expect all of the staff to understand you. Please be kind and have your google translate ready. It's worth it just so you can blend in, lay back, and enjoy this classic neighborhood gem.

My husband had the eggs Benedict with ham, which he said was cooked perfectly and was one of the best breakfasts he has had. Our friend had the GF crepe with chocolate and bananas, which was huge. It was very filling and was so delicious. Reservations are recommended here and it's a bit off the beaten path but you absolutely need to go here.
