La Tertulia is a small, neighborhood tavern with amazing food. I was clearly the only tourist…read morethere. The other customers were locals and judging by their interactions with the staff, plainly regulars. There was a small bar and about a dozen tables with a mix of Spanish and English music playing. The selection of liquor was good, and beer and wine choices weee excellent. The fresh meat and fish food ingredients were on display in refrigerated, glass cases on the bar top. The bartender was personable and went out of her way to connect me to the internet and a menu in English. I ordered the fried squid tentacles with a liter of the local draft beer, Estrella Damm, and finished with a Jack Daniels on the rocks. The price was very reasonable and much less than I would have expected. It was a great experience!

Our last moments in Spain were spent here because hell, it was the airport, and we were catching a…read moreflight to Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport at 7AM. Of course, that meant arriving at the terminal by the ungodly hour of 5AM. Security and passport check was a breeze at Barcelona El Prat, so we had time to kill before getting to the gate. No doubt of its prime location, this was the first sign of coffee anyone saw coming out of the security zone, which meant almost everyone made a pit stop here to refuel. Jamie W. and I certainly did as we needed a bit of Café con Leche to get our engines going for the flight ahead of us. The space was surprisingly expansive, accommodating a large influx of people easily even if the staff didn't display as much flexibility. There is an element of Scandinavian ship design given the free-form cabling and wooden ceiling boxes that marked the open space. Not that we appreciated the architectural detail since we were near-zombies at that hour. I did manage to order an exorbitantly priced fruit cup (6.50€) to go with the 3€ Café con Leche (photo: http://bit.ly/2DOrX7p). It held me over until we received our snack boxes on the plane. The meh-ness of the experience lingered after we started homeward bound. COFFEE - 2 stars...somewhat burnt flavor for so early in the morning AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...actually more spacious than most kiosks SERVICE - 2 stars...not stellar at this hour TOTAL - 2 stars...coffee in the morning if you are in desperate need...and who isn't?

Its convenient place to grab quick snacks or meal. Lots of seating next to it. It has 3 cashiers…read morewho also does barista work. Both side offers similar stuff but the right side moves lot faster if manned 100%. Reasonable price considering its airport but definitely lot higher than the outside. 750cc of Vittel is at wopping 3.65€ but also has cheaper alternatives. Considering 10€ for double whopper meal nearby at the Burger King, its the luxury? They have limited croissants and slices of cakes, simple sandwiches. Wine and beer too.
