    We were recommended this spot by a local shop employee. We ordered the tiramisu croissant and cappuccino and they were both good.

    We stopped here because of the signage claiming the best croissant! And they were good, but not fresh. Not our favorite pastry of our time in Barcelona!

    Brunells is known for their croissants in Barcelona. We went there and were happy there is no line. You ordered from the front and then you can find the seats in the back to enjoy. The pistachios croissant is good not worth the hype. The fruit tea you can pass.

    No debate. The best croissants in Barcelona!!! Everything here is amazing, but the croissants are worth the trip alone.

    Walked in for brunch on a Saturday when they had just opened, but the place was already full! We were lucky to get bar seating without a wait. It's a small place so it can feel a bit cramped, but that's typical of most places in the area. Best croissant in Barcelona 2020 and their other foods are good too. We got some coffee con leche and a bread with potatoes and bacon, almost like an open faced sandwich. This portion is large enough to share if you want a snack to get you started. Everything tasted delicious. Our waitress was super helpful and welcoming. Don't wait! Make a visit here for a quick meal!

    Strawberry filled croissant was very good not too sweet. Prices are reasonable and service was fine

    **December 2022: Afternoon Visit** My friend and I walked by Brunnells and saw a pastry chef work roll out some delicious croissants. Curious by the baked goods I walked around and saw the store window with lots of tasty treats. I also noticed on the digital promo that it was the 2020 winner for Best Croissant in Spain - well now... I had to test it for myself! When we entered the bakery they asked if I wanted to do takeout or dine-in, when my friend suggested dine-in we were directed next door and saw a cue of people waiting for a seat. Thankfully, we didn't wait long and we sat at a small booth. My friend and I shared the pistachios croissant and the ham/cheese. Pistachio: This is their most popular croissant as I saw multiple tables with it. When I first bit into it it reminded me of a Beard Papa's Cream Puff but with pistachio filling. The cream on the inside had a more frozen cream center versus a soft creamy one and the croissant was nice and buttery. (4/5) Ham/Cheese: Such a simple and classic sando, but done right. Everything paired well and the croissant itself was lightly toasted to give sando a nice crunch. (5/5) My friend and I also ordered beverages which were good (4/5). I think if you're wanting to enjoy a simple cafe style meal with a friend this is a great place to do that! Enjy!

    I was dying because of jet lag, and was revived by a cup of delicious iced latte from Brunells. The inside was modern and neat and staffs were nice and professional. A great place to stop by and take a break.

    Really yummy croissants! This is my first time trying croissants with cream and fruits in the middle and it is pretty amazing though not easy to eat without making your hands dirty. There was a short line when I came at ~3pm and many of the pastry/desserts were gone already so come early!

    Wow! This place is a gem!! I tried several pastry shops around Barcelona and was not impressed. I saw the advertisements on the windows of this pastry shop about being one of the best in the city and I decided to give it a shot. Their pastries are delicious! The filled croissant is one of the best pastries I've had! They have a nice variety of different filling types and fruit inside as well! I also tried the key lime pie and it was aesthetic and so good! They have two sides to the business- one is to go- and the other side is to sit down. If you choose to get it to go note there isn't much seating around this area of town. I'd recommend eating there! The iced matcha latte was delicious and all in all a great value for around 10$ for a croissant and a matcha. The servers were kind and efficient!

    One of the best croissants you'll have, cute shop, and good service. Walked by Brunells after the Picasso Museum. Elegant store and then discovered they have a cute café on the other side. Had a couple sandwiches and dessert consisting of the pistachio and raspberry semifreddo type dish, along with the chocolate and cherry mousse thingy. All was tasty and light. Perfect small and sweet meal. We also ordered three croissants for the next day's breakfast-- pistachio, the chocolate dipped one, and a chestnut/walnut one. They really are superb for their croissants. Supremely light and layers, with a soft and airy bread, and not hard parts. Wow.

    While we were in Barcelona rushing to make an appointment I noticed this shop out of the corner of…read moremy eye.. it looked so good that we decided to come back just to try some of their treats and boy they did not disappoint. We tried one of their chocolate desserts, a chocolate chip cookie and a matcha drink. All of them were great.. so great that I ended up buying a pistachio brookie to go. To this day we regret not buying more stuff to bring back home. The service was great and quick. The place was clean and cute to dine in with a few tables! Overall I'd definitely stop by if I'm in Barcelona again!

    Had to try a gluten free bakery while in Barcelona of course (one of many). Chok is for chocolate…read morebut they didn't sell any actual chocolates... but there was a rotation of special flavored cinnamon rolls, rookies, brownies, mini cakes, cookies, and cheesecakes. There were a few loaves of bread but mostly there were those sweets and it seems they have those all the time. We got a regular cinnamon roll because the flavored ones didn't have as much of the frosting on it which is the best part, and a pistachio cream rookie... no im not sure what a rookie is but it looked like a Levain cookie (the famous one from NY) as it was a mountain of a dessert. We had both treats heated up... although they weren't actually hot lol. The cinnamon roll was on par with others I've had, maybe even slightly drier but the frosting was amazing and I still enjoyed it a lot. The rookie was quite decadent and the inside was an almost cake texture? Still quite tasty but I think both would've knocked it out of the park if they were actually hot and ooey gooey. Five stars because it wasn't bad but I can't say I'm super impressed. I will be going to other gf bakeries over this one
