This place is especially great for brunch. I always feel like I'm in Sydney or Brooklyn rather than Barcelona. It's split over three levels and has a roof terrace. Go early, it's popular and busy.

Possibly our favourite tapas restaurant in Barcelona and it's in our neighborhood (el Borne). Unpretentious and reasonably priced. Excellent wine and try the calamari, oxtail, the bravas and the foie.

A cheap, tasty and untouristy little tapas bar/restaurant in the Barceloneta neighborhood - i.e. close to the beach - with a small yard for al fresco eating. Decent gazpacho, tortilla and calamari.

This place is famous as Picasso and Dali used to eat here. It's a great place to go for upscale paella or fideua (the Catalan version of paella). Expect waiters in white coats.

A lovely, tiny place run by relaxed Italians who clearly love food. Think homemade seasonal pastas and desserts. One of the best Italian restaurants in the city, definitely the best in the Born.
