    Savory Pancakes with scrambled eggs and bacon. A new take on an old classic.
    D Maurice M.

    First time in Barcelona and no matter what time I wake up (today it was 1:30pm due to the time difference, lol), I always want a good breakfast/brunch. Well, I opened up Yelp and the first place to come up was Can Dendê. I couldn't even get to any other options because everything looked so good and the reviews were so positive! So, I had to try it out. It went way beyond my expectations. First, we ordered the fried green tomatoes. The salsa alone was incredible! Along with the cheese and the tomatoes, it was sublime and hands down the best fried green tomato I have ever tasted! Next, I had the savory pancakes with scrambled eggs and bacon. I was surprised that all the ingredients were combined together! Topped with arugula and creme fresh mixed within, I poured over some maple syrup and that's all she wrote...heavenly! We also got the Eggs Benedict and again, the fresh ingredients stood out and came through, especially the potatoes. We finished it off with their pink lemonade and a Bloody Mary and I can't say enough of this experience. I will be eating here again before my trip ends...thank you, Can Dendê!!!

    Small little spot found thanks to my fellow Yelpers. Trendy, cute little spot serving up delicious food. I ordered the savory pancakes, they were delicious. The batter was fluffy on the inside with a golden crisp on the outside, topped with over easy eggs and arugula. Hubby had the salmon bagel shown in the picture. And my coffee was perfectly prepared.

    Beautiful spot for brunch. Had the salmon bagel with waffle chips/fries. Made fresh and flavorful. Also had the savory pancakes with bacon. That was tasty too. Good service, prices and food. A great way to start your day in Barca...

    Wonderful hipster place. Incredible coffee and bloody mary's. The egg bendict was fantastic and service was fast and efficient.

    Great breakfast spot in Barcelona. Has some random hours. So be sure to check before you head out. Staff was friendly and they had an English menu. Food was great. Would highly recommend!

    Found this place on Yelp with only 3 reviews but it was a 5min walk from the apartment I'm at so decided to go. It's on the corner - of a not so busy street but neighbor bustling neighborhoods. So it's got kind of a hipster vibe going on- but not subtle. Our waitress was very cool and spoke great English. Menu items looked great and the specials of the day were on an index card. It's a small but open space and constantly full. You can see all that's happening in the kitchen. The staff as whole is eager to help, friendly and suggestive. The Jack Russell mascot who meanders around waiting for someone to drop something is probably one of the funnier parts. No one is annoyed by him and he doesn't annoy anyone. The food was incredible - I haven't had a good brunch in a while. Balanced flavors that can fit any of your cravings-- savory or sweet. Can't remember the names of our meals, but I'll post pics.

    Food was absolutely delicious. Went with my wife and we ordered 3 mains in order to try some variety. Ana had the Eggs Benedict and I had the Pulled Pork Pancakes. The extra plate was the Crispy Chicken Burger. The three of them were awesome, I fully endorse them. Went on a Sunday morning. There was a line and we queued for about 20 mins. The place is really small so not much seating available. The usual tip: Get there early or be ready to wait on busy Brunch hours. We are eager to return and try some other items on the menu. If the quality of the food is replayed and the other items are as good as the ones we had, I will gladly upgrade them to 5 stars.

    Can Dendê is spectacularly good! I came here 3 times while in Barcelona. Everything is fresh and very original. The baristas are superb, mixing delicious drinks and coffees with a lot of flare. The food is scrumptious. I went for the simple pancakes with fruit and 2 fried eggs - both are great - and then finished it off with an amazing cappuccino. The sangria and other drinks are also incredible. I will miss this place when I leave!

    There was a long wait but it was definitely worth it. I got a burger and the vodka lemonade. Both were delicious and the service was very good and pretty fast. We went on a Sunday at 2 and it was packed. I think the weekend are pretty crazy. Very worth it!

    Missed my breakfast at the hotel and went there for brunch. Jerked pork benedict was amazing! The food overall is very good, but the place is too small, so the line is quite impressive. It is one of the few brunch places open on Sunday, so prepare to wait in the queue for a while.. Also, if you are a single person, you'll be seated at the counter, not the most pleasant place to sit. Even though, I give it 5 stars.

    I loved it oh so much! Service,food,ambiance - it has this amazing vibe, when you don't quite know what is it,but you feel so comfortable that you never want to leave. I have ordered poached eggs with salmon on English muffin, and these were the best poached eggs I had in Barcelona! I also really need to find out the recipe for their hollandaise sauce- it was sooo good, I almost ordered the second serving of it! I have also seen their burgers (with fried chicken or veal)- they did look good. And of course, like any place specialized in brunch, they have pancakes and french toasts - kitchen space is opened to public so you can see a cook grilling these beauties, and the smell of freshly baked pancakes dusted with sugar overfills the cafe and makes it even dreamier:-)) Take in mind - they are closed in August,so plan your visit in September.

    Very flavorful & reasonably priced brunch food options! Helpful (multi lingual) and happy staff! Found it nearby our hotel on first morning here & it was an easy decision to return the next day! Could likely be our favorite part of visiting Barcelona! Wanting to have stayed for longer to get the crispy chicken sandwich!

    Arrived early on our trip to Barcelona and yelped places to grab brunch. Immediately Can Dendê came up as the closest restaurant. We decided to walk from our hotel & it was definitely worth the wait! The restaurant is small & cozy so they had a bit of a wait but the food was incredible! The hostess kept us informed of our turn in the line & once we sat down to eat, our food was brought out fast. So happy I found this little gem. My husband and I got omelettes with salad and shared the hand cut fries and plank cakes! They were truly divine. Highly recommended for fresh food with amazing taste. The staff is very warm and welcoming which just makes the experience worth the wait.

    Best French toast in the world. Second best is in Tel Aviv, so go to Can Dende if you're in Spain

    Healthy, Hearty, and Huge Portions in Barcelona!…read more Been craving something on the healthier side while in Barcelona and came across this spot on Google with tons of high ratings -- and now I see why! Key thing to remember: this place is CASH ONLY, so come prepared. The workers (or maybe the owners) were super, super friendly and very welcoming from the moment we walked in. We decided to eat inside, and wow -- the portions were absolutely ginormous! I ordered the chicken plate, and hubby got the beef and chicken plate, and both were delicious. Each plate came loaded with rice, lentils, red cabbage, tomato salad, lettuce, avocado sauce, plus a spicy hot sauce on the side. We also ordered fries, and it even came with bread to scoop everything up -- such a satisfying meal. All this for 24€. Definitely a must-try if you're looking for something filling but still feels a bit lighter on the tummy while exploring Barcelona. Happy eats in Barcelona!

All sandwiches were 5 euros but some went up to 6. I got the steak with tomato, feta, cucumber, lettuce, avocado and 3 house sauces. My steak was juicy and cooked once I ordered. Everything was flavorful and fresh but wish there was a little more meat. The staff is friendly. Don't plan on eating inside as it is very tiny with 4 tables (they don't let you eat inside if you bring outside drinks) and CASH ONLY.

Not one bit disappointed that this place ended up being our alternative choice, OMG the burgers. Have to say, that was the best burger I've tasted ever and I come from the land of burgers. AKA: America. Come to find out these were Argentinian beef burgers. They were so juicy, yet so lean and well executed. The steak fries/chips were also good, especially with the aioli sauce. Also had a 1551 cava brut, not dry at all and hit the spot with the meal. At the end of our meal, the staff were so hospitable (not sure if it's just a Spain thing because it occurred elsewhere as well), but they offered some complimentary shots for our table. (see the attached photo) - such a delight and if by any chance I happen to be around this part of Spain again, I'd go here in a heartbeat.
