I asked for a manchego y iberico ham charcuterie that featured three varieties of the cheese. Paired with bread, butter and wine, its a perfect meal.

Food service was slow but we had plenty of time (drank two bottles of great Spanish wine). Great place to get meats, cheeses, bread, etc. if you want to have a picnic or something to snack on in your hotel.

This little shop is literally around the corner from our Air BNB near Sagrada Família. I was on a…read moremission to find more than grocery store wine for our rooftop dinner. It was the perfect spot. The small shop has large shelves of wine from the Spanish regions. In addition to a several different Rioja options which was my main focus, they also had a small section from France so I was able to get some Rhône valley wine. The shop keeper was as helpful as two people that don't speak each other's language can be. When I asked Rioja he confirmed red and took me to the section. Same when I asked for cava (bubbles) he took me right over. If we were here longer I'm sure I would be back. They also have liquor from scotch to gin. It's not a liquor store selection but if you're looking for something simple they probably have it.

First of all it has wine on tap that they sell in growlers and by the liter. All local And fresh wine! So good. Second, they have a huge variety of natural wines and organic wines-- all for reasonable prices. They even have pictures of the wine makers up on the walls with little descriptions. The proprietor of the shop really goes out of his way to choose the right wines. We came in for an English friendly wine tour that we booked on trip advisor. It was a 5 glass of wine sampling with a couple free refills for those who wanted. The sommelier is French trained and has a true appreciation for local wine. The tour was a blast and they even brought out some local light meats and cheeses. I loved the overall experience and the only real down side is that I don't permanently live in Barcelona to take advantage of the refillable wine growlers- the prices are so low but the quality is amazing!!

For just €7 we were able to buy a local organic cab (€3 was for the glass bottle that we can bring back and refill)! They also had a variety of bottled wines and beers. If you come on the right day they have a formal tasting room as well. I'm so glad we stumbled in and out of here.

Pretty good Catalonian food overall. Our favorite is the cannelloni au gratin. It basically has…read moremeat soaked in cream sauce with melted cheese on top. The noodle is also pretty interesting. I hate their bread with tomatoes lol. We need to peel garlic and smash the tomatoes, but like how can you eat a whole garlic like that?! We don't like their dessert as well. The burnt sugar is weirdly thick and the custard below I just don't like its taste.

What bothered me the most is how the waiters always jump down the ramp to the kitchen located in the lower floor. He was so energetic in his jumps, it made such loud noise in the dining area.
