Whether you’re a Barcelona local or just passing through, here are 10 awesome spots to grab a bite in Poblenou. Each has its own vibe and flavor, so just go with what your cravings demand today.
Ah, Poblenou! Once an industrial district, now one of Barcelona’s coolest neighborhoods. No wonder—between the Bogatell beach just a few steps away, creative studios, coworking spaces, and, of course, a ton of great places to eat, it’s the place to be.
A Poblenou classic. El 58 is perfect when you're in the mood for tapas with a modern twist and reasonable prices. The vibe is always buzzing, and the menu delivers: top-tier patatas bravas, croquettes better than your grandma’s (sorry, abuela), and vegan options that actually taste like real food. Local tip: go early or book ahead—it gets packed fast.
If today calls for something light and nourishing, Sopa is your safe space. Thoughtfully crafted vegetarian and vegan dishes (nothing boring here), with daily specials that change with the season. The cozy Nordic-minimalist decor makes it the perfect spot to enjoy a silky-smooth pumpkin soup and breathe a little slower.
Let’s be real: no foodie list is complete without a proper burger joint.
If you’re the kind of person who dreams of burgers every weekend (and maybe midweek too), Hideout Poblenou is your place. We serve the best smashburgers in Barcelona - you know, the ones where the meat is smashed on the grill for max crispiness and flavor.
Hideout is your guilty-pleasure hideaway: juicy patties, house-made sauces, bold combos, and a delivery service that flies across the neighborhood. Come as you are, leave with sauce on your hands and a big grin on your face.
Breakfast? Lunch? Dinner? Who cares—this is pure happiness on a plate. Can Dendê brings the flavor with spectacular eggs Benedict, outrageous pancakes, and a laid-back vibe that makes you forget you’re not on holiday. Downsides? There’s usually a line. Upside? Totally worth the wait.
In the mood for a no-nonsense, belt-loosening kind of meal? Els Pollos de Llull is your go-to. Juicy, golden roast chickens, crunchy potatoes, and a sauce so good it should be classified as addictive. If you’re into the classics done right, this one’s a must.
Tast-Ller is a cozy little gem serving Basque-Catalan fusion cuisine that looks like art and tastes like a dream. A great pick if you’re looking to level up your lunch or dinner plans without leaving Poblenou. Classy but chill.
Palo Verde is a modern bistro where every dish is a mini work of art. The menu is full of Mediterranean flavors with a creative twist. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming—a peaceful corner in a busy neighborhood, perfect for laid-back foodies with good taste.
If you’re after something more authentic and no-frills, Monopol is your spot. It’s got that timeless local bar feel, with classic Catalan tapas, chilled vermouth, and a vibe that makes you want to linger. Perfect for snacking, chatting, and soaking up the Poblenou spirit.
Xorús is a grillhouse right on Rambla de Poblenou, the beating heart of the neighborhood. Expect generous portions of traditional Catalan and Galician cuisine, grilled to perfection. Even your aunt—the one who usually eats two lettuce leaves and calls it a night—won’t leave hungry here.
For over 30 years, Racó de la Vila has been delighting locals with honest, traditional Catalan and Spanish cooking. Housed in a beautiful old building near the Olympic Village, this place skips the gimmicks and lets the flavor do all the talking. Timeless, tasty, and always satisfying.
Poblenou is packed with great food spots—but if what you’re craving is a smashburger that might just bring tears of joy, we’ve got you.
