On our Barceloneta tapas tour, you’ll experience true Mediterranean soul right in the heart of a historic fishing village. And here, soul starts with your stomach!

Enjoy authentic cuisine along with beer and wine at every stop on this Barcelona food tour.

Your guide will lead you through the barrio of Barceloneta or “Little Barcelona” as you learn how this neighborhood evolved from humble fisherman’s village to one of the biggest food hubs in Catalonia.

Step into Bitacora, where it feels like summer at the sea even in winter. Here, you’ll chow down on the famous patatas bravas and Spanish croquettes.

Our next stop is hometown favorite Jai-Ca. For over 60 years, this bar has been serving top quality tapas to the people of Barcelona. We’ll get to try some local fried seafood as well as the world famous tortilla de patatas — a savory Spanish omelet with potato and onion. While here, we’ll even try the legendary padrón peppers. Folklore claims one in 10 is spicy enough to kill!

Finally, we’ll visit L’Ostia, a charming restaurant featuring an outdoor terrace on the square. Enjoy views of the Església de Sant Miquel del Port, a beautiful baroque church, while you splurge on mussels, the Barceloneta “bomb,” and more.

Want to keep exploring the tapas bars of Barcelona’s seaside? Your guide will have plenty of recommendations!
