    Eggs Benedict
    PT S.

    Deliciós. Simply delicious. We weren't thinking brunch, but here we are after so many other lower rated restaurants were full up. Variety of offerings for Sunday brunch aka something for everyone. Fast service. The chorizo hash was stellar sensation for the tongue. The Eggs Benedict sauces also very delectable. Outdoor patio on the street. But like many streets in Barcelona, the sun is not able to reach the ground through the surrounding buildings.

    Burger with Foie and caramelized onions!
    Lisa M.

    If I could give six stars I would! We've been in Spain for a few weeks and I've been craving a burger. Arrived in Barcelona late last night and this place is around the corner from my hotel. We chose to sit inside away from the smokers. The vibe was chill and all three servers were friendly and spoke English. The menu is full of options but I went for the burger. It was amazing! Super juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly! The grilled foie gras was a decadent topper and coupled with the caramelized onions and warmed bun, I was in burger heaven! I opted for no Parmesan shavings and would have loved to see a nice briny pickle on the side to balance the rich and savory sandwich. Service was attentive and music was at a great level. We are here for a week and I'm already looking at the menu for my next meals there! A must visit!

    Charcuterie
    Rise G.

    Had a great experience at Firebug; the service and food were great. We ordered the gyoza, charcuterie, and patatas bravas. The outside seating area is large, has a great vibe and is good for people watching. Everyone that worked there were happy and really seemed to enjoy what they do.

    Vanilla iced latte and Shakshuka
    Christine F.

    The food here was so delicious, and fueled me for the day. I had a vanilla iced coffee and a shakshuka with gluten free bread. Overall menu was a bit more "American-ish " then other places with hamburgers and pastrami sandwiches. But I was with people who ordered both and they said they both tasted amazing

    Smoked salmon,  chorizo, and pancakes (listed on the menu as "pennyfarthing."
    Mike B.

    The duck is delicious. It is a riff on Peking duck. The meat is tender and shredded (reminded me or barbacuá.) The blueberry sauce is a bit less overwhelming than the traditional plum sauce can be. The charcuterie is also excellent, with jamón ibérico, chorizo and other delicious takes on cured pig I should add that I came back for breakfast the next day. I had the "Pennyfarthing." One suspects the term originated with the British. But for my fellow Yankees, it is a pancake with all the fixins. Bananas, jam, berries, nuts and syrup.

    New York bagel
    Youri Y.

    My mom and I were perusing around after checking out Arc de Triumf and decided to eat here for brunch. They don't have a tapas menu during brunch so we went with the NY bagel and Asian chicken salad lol Surprisingly, the food here was really good. Ingredients tasted fresh and portions were huge. We shared a slice each of the New York bagel and split the Asian chicken salad. We washed it down with mimosas and they even gave us small sampler shots of the bloody mary which was eve more tasty! I wish I ordered the bloody mary but I also knew I did not want to break the seal later on lol The service was solid just as the wifi. Bathrooms are modern and clean located upstairs. For the Aemrican style brunch fare, this place was really good and a nice change actually from tapas lol

    The minute you walk in, and go down the stairs, you are reminded of the wonderful places that used to exist in the early 1990s in Los Angeles, California. Five star food all around. Fully stocked bar for those who are in need. Generous portions of food. Freshly squeezed juices and smoothies. No Almond Milk (just a heads up) and the yelp coupon upon first check-in isn't available any longer. Also the Spanish customary tip isn't automatically included on the bill, you'll have to add that yourself. It's a lovely place for breakfast or brunch.

    Best vacation brunch yet! Brenda is the best server! We enjoyed the nicely shaded outdoor seating. Food and drinks were perfect! We may need to return for dinner service before we head home. Yum!

    brunch!
    Karen L.

    Came in for brunch, they have really nice outdoor seating and you can enjoy some nice people watching. Their coffee is excellent, I ordered a mocha and the whipped cream that came on it was delicious! The pancakes I got were ok, not as fluffy and tasty as they are in the US. Eggs benedict was GREAT, highly recommend getting that if you're a fan of benedict. Pretty well-portioned meals, definitely worth a visit.

    The decor is fun. The bar is made out of stacked suitcases.
    Ty R.

    This restaurant does not disappoint. Everything is good and the service is excellent for Barcelona standards, ha ha Their burgers are yummy and the brunch looks delicious based on what the adjoining table ordered. Check it out!

    Brioche Breakfast
    Sherlyn S.

    The food is so good we ate here 2 days in a row. I highly recommend this place. We will definitely come again.

    Natasha V.

    Ummm! OMG, this Chorizo Hash with Eggs is tasting amazing! My spinach is wonderfully prepared, tasty and a robust flavor. I will get back but YES!

    Shakshuka
    Josh R.

    Everything here is amazing and has so much flavor!!! I ordered the Shakshuka for breakfast, and it tasted great. If I were to order something again, I would order a dish with meat. It didn't take long for the food to come out, and the server was very friendly. This is one of the best breakfast/brunch places in Barcelona!

Very flavorful and fast experience. Oxtail and mashed potatoes 10/10: the oxtail meet is so tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes pair so well with the oxtail. Mushroom, steak, and egg yolk 9/10: soo flavorful and balance of veggies and protein. Amazing textures and flavors. Sparkling sangria: 8/10 I don't normally live the taste of alcohol but this was great. Not tooooo strong and if tastes pretty good if you mix it with the orange juice. Fresh orange juice: 10/10 so tangy and delicious. I can't recommend it enough. Patatas bravas: 9/10 solid no complaints! Dessert Tapas: - bread dessert (Tarija): 11/10 amazing dessert that is creamy, cameralized, and has a mochi like texture. This fried chewy dessert is not too sweet and such an affordable price. - coconut pudding 9/10 solid and refreshing if you like flan - bread, chocolate oil, salt 7/10: I live the complex flavors. The chocolate mousse was light and the bread to mousse ratio was perfect. It's a smaller dessert tho I wouldn't recommend it if ur sharing. Service: amazing! Staff I'm everywhere so it was very easy to order more food. Also we were sitting buy the area where they made dessert and they allowed me to record them making it!! Comfortable ambiance great for date night or casual meals!!!

Not only was his service incredible, but he also gave us amazing recommendations for our upcoming trip to Buenos Aires in two weeks. The food was hands-down our best meal in Barcelona. Every dish felt authentic and full of flavor. Our favorites were the accordion-style baked potato topped with creamy aioli and spicy sauce, and the truffle brie toast, which was completely out of this world. To top it all off, the meal ended with a shot of local acorn liquor as we toasted Jordi, our other server, which also made the whole experience feel so special. And shoutout to Flor behind the bar for the fantastic margaritas and sangria! Thank you, Sabastian, Jordi, and Flor for making our Barcelona trip so unforgettable.

Then the sea bass and prawns in a coconut milk based soup...the star. Reminded me of a Thai Tom Kha soup. Overall would highly recommend. If I ever return to Barcelona, I will stop in.

Alas it was pretty average but you do have a variety of options and it came with wine which was a nice bonus. Started with some fideuá but found this paella noodle dish a little one note.

A simple flan rounds out the meal on a sweet note. Mostly locals inside. Not a destination stop per se but good value at lunch if you happen to be walking by.

(Was absolute rubbish and waste of time) The service: minimal Food: Below average paella Portion: I have had bigger tapas for babies Drinks: I have no idea what was served. Some form of watered down alco that's neither here nor there All in all, not a good experience at all. Agree I went with Sandeman so part to blame would be them. But my view is that if you love food, care about your customers, love your business; then care for your brand and don't join crappy partnerships. And if you plan to do that; suck it up and serve proper food!
