Best Barcelona Beach Restaurants

DINNING BY THE SEA: BARCELONA BEACHFRONT RESTAURANTS​​

This time of the year, many clients ask me to recommend them good Barcelona beach restaurants. After all, they are a perfect choice for a summer meal. However, there are so many, and so many of them are no more than tourist traps, that visitors need some orientation to choose where to go.

This is why, when today Sally M. wrote me to reconfirm her Gaudi tour and asked me about Barcelona beach restaurants to go with her husband, I thought that it was a great post idea. And no sooner said than done! Good appetite!

These are our favorite beach restaurants in Barcelona:​​

1

Agua​

Located in the Olympic Village,  I love dining at their  outdoor terrace, with the quiet sound of the ways in my ears, to view of the palm trees and the moon,  and a candle on my table  to make the evening even more romantic. And after  dinner, if I feel like dancing, some of my favorite nightclubs  are just next door. This is I chose Agua from all the offer in the area: it’s just next door to the best ones.

Pez Vela

Looking for an informal but cool place to eat? Our Barcelona beach restaurants list has another great choice for you! Pez Vela is located at the foot of the W hotel (a top Barcelona beach hotel, by the way), and I always choose a table  outdoors  when it’s sunny.

Nothing beats the astounding views over the water, while I savor a gourmet rice with my friends. And I can’t resist their lemon pie for dessert either!

La Deliciosa

Hungry at the beach? A “chiringuito” is an informal beach bar serving comfort food and drinks, and there are a few located along the Barcelona beaches.  And most of them, though, the food isn’t great… But this is not the case of this one, where their goal is to serve gourmet beach food.

Either you need breakfast after a night partying, or you want a light meal like a sandwich and a salad, or if you want to seat down and have some tapas… They get you covered! And of course they have an enticing drinks menu with cocktails, gin and tonics, vermouth and more!

Xiringuito Escribà​​

Larger and with more facilities than the average “xiringuito”, in this one you will be able to enjoy a more elaborated meal. paella is their specialty: they have up to 6 different  dry dishes! And their tapas are also great (try their ham “airbags”).

But leave some room for dessert: this venue is run by Christian Escribà, one of the best cake makers in town.

Cal Pinxo Platja​​

This restaurant is run by the 5th generation of the same family devoted for decades to seafood cooking in the Barceloneta (BTW, more Barceloneta restaurants here). Well known by the locals, it features an outdoor terrace overlooking the beach. Head here for great lobster, prawns, shrimp or any kind of shellfish.

Ca la Nuri Platja

Ms. Nuri and her husband started out with a small neighborhood bar in 1962, and little by little, encouraged also by their kids who now run the family business, started growing. It was one of their sons that found the venue during one of his bike strolls along the sea.

And this is how Ca la Nuri Platja has become a local favorite for tapas, fish and rices by the sea. There’s always at least one vegetarian rice available in their menu.
