Best Montjuic Restaurants In Barcelona

NEED IDEAS FOR RESTAURANTS IN MONTJUIC?

Enjoy a meal with Barcelona at your feet: together with the Tibidabo Mountain, the Hill of Montjuic is one of the best high points in Barcelona to admire the city views. It’s an excellent viewpoint, especially at nightfall but you wouldn’t go there at night just because of the views. The good news is that many Montjuic restaurants offer great views as well, and that’s the perfect excuse to head there in the evenings (or stay after you are done with your sightseeing).

Plus even the ones that don’t have views offer great food anyway. Discover here which places are our favorite!

This is our top list of Montjuic Restaurants:

1 El Xalet

An amazing rotating dining area with crystal walls overlooking the city, so all the guests get to enjoy the city views for part of their meal (it completes a whole turn in what takes to eat a full meal, approximately).

Inside Poble Espanyol you will find this cozy restaurant offering Catalan cuisine cooked with local products and an outstanding wine list. TIP: by booking a table in this restaurant in advance, you get free entrance to Poble Espanyol. I recommend their rices, the cod dishes and their grilled meats. They also have vegetarian and gluten free options.

3 Martínez

This is a good choice for a lunch or dinner outdoors with views over the port. They have a set menu that includes vermouth, lunch, drinks and dessert, and you can also eat “à la carte”. We love their patatas bravas and rice dishes. Remember that inside it’s smoking-free, but outside in the terrace people might be smoking,.
