Cute and cozy! Stopped by on our way back to the airport for breakfast! Coffee was delicious as well as the breakfast croissant. A little pricy compared to others that taste the same but atmosphere was nice. read more

Awesome churros & chocolate. The chocolate is thicker and darker than most, almost like a melted chocolate bar. They also has good crepes and other pastries. We went back to this cafe a few times during our stay in the Boqueria district which is a five minute walk. read more

Great coffee and churros with chocolate! Everything is organic there. I had cafe con leche (you should ask for extra hot), american, churros with chocolate and cheesecake. You should try them! And also very nice servers! But it is a small size spot. read more

Solid 4 stars and a good spot for coffee, ice cream or dessert. We had churros and hot chocolate and ice creams from here and both were nice but not amazing. It's the location and environment inside that make this place and, if you're looking for a little pit stop, it's worth trying. read more

I will admit my heart sunk a little when I ordered churros y chocolate and some pre-made churros were taken out of a tupperware container and re-toasted. Why weren't they fried to order?! I was so looking forward to hot, sizzling churros with soft granules of sugar sprinkled throughout, but this was not the place where that would be happening. I digress. Even though the churros were pre-made, they were hot and crispy and the perfect vehicle in which to dip in thick, rich, hot chocolate. The hot chocolate saved this place and has by far been my favorite hot chocolate in Madrid and Barcelona! read more

Wonderful location next to lively, beautiful Plaça Real. The hot chocolate was very good--but hot. And the servers were kind and friendly.

Came here for breakfast on a Wednesday. Had the latte which was more like milkshake than anything. Coffee was not strong. Turkey with olive paste panini was served cold. It was dry and not fresh. Also had the chicken crepe where the crepe was very thick and chewy. Tried the churros with chocolate and it was not soft and fresh. Won't be returning again. read more

Our first day in Barcelona we did a lot exploring down Las Ramblas, the main street in Barcelona where you can find great restaurants, souvenir shops, clothing shops, flower shops, and so much more. Right off Las Ramblas is the Gothic Quarter (Bario Gathica) which is the oldest part of the city. It has amazing narrow winding streets, beautiful squares, shops and amazing restaurants. While strolling through the Gothic Quarter we stumbled upon ARTiSA an amazing little shop that had everything from gelato to saffron. You can get a sandwich or crepe as well as dessert and a cafe con leche and all in a beautiful and friendly environment. Our first stop we had chocolate gelato. It was the best we had in Europe, hands down. It was rich and creamy but not overly sweet. It was just pure decadence which had us coming back again and again. Our second trip I got a cafe latte and Todd got more gelato. The latte was so good and it even came with a square of dark chocolate which was divine. While we were there we sat down and finally got to take in how cute and eclectic this place really was. The decor was homey, yet it had a country outdoor living twist. They used canning jars with stringed lights for lighting, wooden tables and chairs, silver and cold accents, everything was just neat. We also took a look at the menu and realized they also sold crepes and small deserts which looked great. On our third and final visit to ARTiSA, I had another latte and Todd and I shared another cone of gelato. This time we got chocolate and vanilla. It was just as I remembered it a few days ago but this time we realized that they had gifts, wine, chocolates, spices, olive oils and more that you could buy. I couldn't believe how many things this little shop sold, no wonder we kept coming back. We purchased some saffron for my mother-in-law because it was so much less expensive there than here in the states, and as you know, she is the original foodie. Words can not describe just how great this place really was. I miss it and Barcelona in general. The people, atmosphere, food, markets, and of course... gelato. Make sure you check out this place if you get the pleasure of visiting Barcelona, you won't be disappointed! read more

Awesome place. The service is a bit slow, but I guess that's to be expected since we're in Spain. Besides that the food was pretty good, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I'd say more 3.5 than 4. Reservations are necessary. read more

We went the Artisa in the morning. Around 9-10am. The cafe was full of tourists eating breakfast. The food looked excellent but since we had breakfast already, we just had ice-cream. The ice-cream was yummy. I just wish that we have more time in Barcelona so we can come back again. read more

The best spot in Barcelona, couldn't get enough of it, nice atomosphere, great coffee and sweets. Friendly staff, and in the middle of Las Ramblas area. read more

Found this darling place on yelp and so glad I did! Had the Nutella crêpe with a scoop of tiramisu. It was made to perfection, but I recommend accompanying it with a coffee to balance the sweetness. My friend and I stayed for an extra 30 mins checking out all the cute souvenirs and taking pics. The guy who initially helped us was really nice despite the line of people but the girl who rang us up was a tad unpleasant (but didn't ruin the experience). Check this place out! read more

We came here the day after New Years 2015 because we were craving churros, and Xurreria had been closed for the past of couple nights during our stay in Barcelona. I had bookmarked this place within walking distance from Xurreria, and hooray, we finally found our fix at Artisa! For 4 euro, we got 4 churros and a cup of chocolate. We watched the barista make the chocolate from scratch using coco and milk. The churros were freshly made and served piping hot with crystalline sugar sprinkled on top. Needless to say, I was one happy camper as I walked out of Artisa and enjoyed my treat in the open plaza outside! read more

Another tourist trap on las ramblas. Churros con chocolate were below mediocre. The dipping chocolate was Tasteless and tasted like something from a mix? The churros were SOGGY and droopy with oil, and not sweet. They aren't fried to order, they're heated up and you can tell they're not fresh. I did not try anything else so I won't give it 1 star but don't come here for churros if you like yourself read more

Nice place to chill. Their gelato selction was okay. Illy coffee. Fast wifi. Cool interiors. read more

Too expensive for what they serve. The portions are tiny for the amount you pay, even though the desserts were tasty. We had the churros con chocolat, which was a small cup of hot chocolate with 4 thin and short sticks of churros. Definitely did not satisfy my churros craving and hardly the quantity I usually get in Spain! The brownie was nice but again tiny, and more of a dry cake than a gooey one, and not rich or chocolatey enough for a real chocolate-lover. When we were placing our orders, there was a lady at the counter asking for a refund on her carrot cake as it was not good. I gathered from the exchange that the cream cheese frosting has gone sour as the cake display is not refrigerated. Not really sure why there is so much hype about this place, possibly because it's centrally located. read more

The baby churros with hot chocolate was wonderful and super delicious. Great location off La Rambla was a great plus too

Adorable desdert place in the heart of gothic quarter. I wanted to order the entire menu including the apricot/strawberry cheesecake, helado, croissants, banana/Carmel cheesecake, other delicious pastries but I needed to restrain myself. I had the churros with the dark chocolate dip. Soooo good. Delicious. Heartwarming place. And! They reposted my churro instagram picture ;) nice of them. 5-stars! All the way around. We will be going back. read more

This place was amazing! I came here looking for dessert and it did not disappoint. I got the passion fruit tart and it was so light and sweet. There was also a caramel banana cake/pie that was also very very good! I would absolutely recommend. read more

Bakery right by the cathedral - had the churros and chocolate which was delicious! they have a ton of things which looked appetizing but one can only eat so much the churros were not fresh or else id give them 4 stars read more

I can't really tell for sure why, but this place gives me Starbucks vibes. The range of products is practically the same - pastries, sandwiches, and well, they also have crepes - the quality is okay. Coffee was fine, nothing on top of the world. The worst thing is the service, which is slow, especially during breakfast time. And as much as I loved their decoration, they have very poor air conditioning, too few tables, and sitting inside is not pleasant at all. So honestly, the place is not really bad, and certainly one of the safest places to have breakfast/ snack on La Rambla, but I'd say for what it really is, Artisa is slightly overpriced and does not worth the special attention. read more

This place is a surprising value for a small shop right on La Rambla. A good option for a quick breakfast. The quiche and crepes we had were delicious. read more

This place was great. Really nice staff and cool decor. It's in the middle of all the tourist trap restaurants but is far from it. Simple cafe with free wifi and ice cream. read more

Came specifically for the churros and chocolate because of yelp reviews and while the ambiance is great, the location awesome, and the food delightful, it was all ruined by the server who was extremely RUDE. read more

Waited 20 minutes for two coffees and then left cause we were tired of waiting. The two girls serving there seem to be way too busy talking and dropping plates rather than serving customers. McDonalds has better service than that read more

My family and I stopped here for baked treats and ice cream and were not disappointed. It's a small place with a lovely atmosphere, worth a try if you are looking for something quick and delicious. Plus it's located right off Las Ramblas and Placa Reial so it's right on the main tourist path. read more

If you're a local, come to get served. If you're a tourist, expect them to forget about you. Went here three times because I was staying nearby. They get very busy, which is not a problem. But all three times I visited, I order, pay and wait only to have my order completely forgotten about. So tourists, it is up to you to put pressure on them to in order to get served. The smoothies are very expensive for what they are. I ordered one, they forgot, and what they hastily made was a watery juice. More expensive and worse quality than the fresh juice/smoothies at La Boqueria just down the Rambla, which sell for 1-2 euro. Maybe this is an anomaly, because when I returned the next day, local customers who ordered a smoothie got a thicker drink. Come here if you're not in a rush or don't mind being aggressive for service if you're a tourist. read more

i've had a lot of chocolate croissants in my life and i rate artisa's in the top 5. the place is pricy and the latte was average but the pastries are on fleeeeeek! read more

ya know, I was expecting a little more coming here after seeing all of the 5-star reviews. my husband & I came here to try some gelato- I had the pistachio (quite tasty) while he had the Catalan (he enjoyed it). not much seating space and the place was filled with tourists (which was fine by me- just made it difficult to find a place to sit). I don't know what it was that we should have done differently in order to have a better experience. maybe we should have tried a different dessert? the servers were friendly but nothing out of the norm for Barcelona. they did have a cool little gift shop downstairs that was fun to look at- definitely a good place to get souvenirs for friends + family back at home. don't think I would try again, but I am probably off, seeing as everyone else highly enjoys this place. read more

Went here on a Saturday night and the place was busy. A lot of customers buy to go. The cafe area is a nice set up tho quite small. They could have staffed more workers to keep up with customer traffic and cleaning. Food and drinks were about average. read more

This is one of many reasons why I'd move to Barcelona. Great selection of olive oil, local wine, morning pastries, gelato, and coffee. Truly an artisan approach to everything sold inside! We were lucky enough to live right across from it in Plaza Reial and ate breakfast here every morning and had late night gelato here every evening. Definitely a gem amid all the tourist traps on Las Ramblas! read more

Great fresh Gelato! During my three days in Barcelona, I came here twice. It's just plain good and fresh.

I rented a place from airbnb right near here, and this was my morning stop for coffee and breakfast. Everything I had was amazing, and the location is great. They also had menus in English which were helpful. Their chocolate is absolute heaven. I highly recommend this place to any weary travelers looking for a mellow place to relax. read more

This place is a joke. If you like microwaved churro that is soggy, this is the place for you. Utterly ridiculous. Don't waste your time.

What a great little coffee shop. Right off the Las Ramblas. We went here every morning for breakfast. Great service and a an even better cup of coffee. read more

I stumbled upon this place. The decor looks really amazing. Very popular. I ordered the melon gelato. It wasn't that good to be honest, and the price ($2.80 E) is much higher than elsewhere in Barcelona. read more

This place is amazing! My family and I were so glad we found it. We will probably go back again tonight after dinner...yeah, it's worth it. You will not be disappointed! read more

I should have followed the wise saying, "stay away from the tourist areas". But my craving for churros and thick hot chocolate overcame my usual cautions. The staff was friendly and the place was quaint but the hot chocolate and churros were awful. The hot chocolate was very thin and had a slight chocolate taste to it, first disappointment. The churros were cold pre-made oily mushy things, they should not even be served. I'm very disappointed that I got my hopes so high. At least it was only a waste of 4€. If hot chocolate is what you want, keep looking. read more
