Really cute coffee place in Terrassa (city center). What makes this place really special is the…read morefact that it's a fusion between a coffee shop and an architecture studio. While you have a cup of coffee you can see the owner working on her blueprints. The space is tiny but well used. You can find fresh pastries and bread and have a cup of coffee, tea, juice or soda. I'm in love with the deco. If you are in Terrassa you can't miss it!

I can't believe I forgot to take pictures in this last trip to my hometown! Definitively one of the…read morebest and oldest coffee shops in town. It used to be a store where you go and buy coffee in bulk to brew at home (back when there were no Starbucks, not that there is one in my native town!). People decades back brew a lot of coffee at home instead of having the cafelito in the terraces in downtown, so this was a classic place to go and get 'Cafe Pont' one of the most beloved brands. With the time the many decades old coffee store has expanded and got hipsterized so to speak. Very lovely and cozy.

I love Art Bo. It's a popular bakery/cafe chain found all throughout the suburbs of Barcelona. My…read morefavorite item from their shop is their filled croissants. Their pistachio croissant in particular is one of the best pistachio croissants I've ever tasted. I highly recommend. The lotus or biscoff croissant is also really good, but it's very sweet and rich. Art Bo has a wide selection of items, ranging from sweet to savory. I heard from locals that they're better for their bakery/sweet items.

The best of the best. Artbo is a chain of bakeries that started in Sabadell and has branched out to…read moreother locations, like this one in Sant Quirze that has been there for some years now. Is one of my favorites because is so big, spacious, very girlfriends gathering oriented and also kinds friendly, so is the perfect place to meet your friends with kids and still have a good time:) I love every single of their pastries, they have excellent quality (especially the ones with 'cabello de angel' = angel hair, so delicious). Their breads are excellent, flaky, fresh from the oven and production is constant. The display of the sweets is so pretty you want to eat them all! You should try their cocas de Sant Joan, in June, they are the best you can get, and a lot of variety. I highly recommend this place both for the quality of you will eat here, as for the mellow ambiance to meet with friends and have a conversation.

What to say about Ibericus! the best jamon ever! Get a flauta (mini sandwich) and a cafe latte (in…read morereal nice cup) and just sit outside at the terrace (who cares if it is winter, everybody gets out to have some fresh air and coffee in Spain even in winter) and enjoy the company of future friends. Here you can have both the coffee shop/patisserie experience plus the mini sandwiches with breads to die for, and also you can buy jamon iberico (ham of very good quality) in different sizes for gift giving or even the full leg for you. It is now a big chain and I like the centric location of this one.
