Apparently its an inexpensive restaurant to enjoy really fresh seafood -- crabs, prawns. You pick out what you want at the counter, it's weighed up and heaved away, and you pick it up crisp and steaming on a platter. I have never been there but everyone says its a really charming and good restaurant. One day I will go...

I love this place!!! Its a little stall-tiny restaurant in the middle of the chaotic Boqueria Market. The owner is very friendly and the food is so good! Its traditional spanish dishes, try "las alubias". Its a bit expensive, so check the prices, but definitely its worth to eat at Pinotxos bar!

Its a humble restaurant where the prices are affordable and cheap in relation to the quality of the food. They have tapas and other dishes. Typical Spanish food. The service sometimes its a bit slow, but last time I went I order Fideua (its similar to paella but instead of rice its noodles) and it was very tasty.

Drinks & Nightlife
This is also one of my favorite places in Barcelona! The main point of this bar is to drink champagne. One glass cost around one euro. And they have a special offer during the day: If you take a bottle of champagne and two tapas it costs around 10 euros. There are not tables, everyone is standing up chitchatting cheerfully. I love the atmosphere, its very lively and to me its very Spanish. Bare in mind that its such a popular bar that you should avoid rush hours on the weekends because sometimes its unbearable how many people there are inside.
