Spain is a FOOD MECCA! However, this girl can't eat spanish tapas for a week straight. I needed to…read morespace out all my paellas and octopuses with some burgers and ramen in between - so hello Bernie's. Bernie's is one of the better options located near the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona. But it really is only one of the better ones because a lot of other "American" establishments are bad. You really make due with what you have. Their milkshakes are good. Nice and creamy but not too heavy. I had the chocolate milkshake and was a fan. My GF had their strawberry cheesecake milkshake and it was good, but tasted more like just strawberry than strawberry cheesecake. T-bone steak tasted similar to a decent american diner and it hit the spot. Their ribs are absolutely horrible though. They were overcooked, dry, bland, and slathered in a bad BBQ sauce. Do come if you miss home, but don't come expecting an amazing meal.

I ordered a Classic burger (cooked medium), fries, patatas bravas, a banana milkshake, a vanilla…read moremilkshake, and a banana split ice cream. All take out. - The burger was raw. We couldn't eat it. - The fries were as bland as fries can be. No seasoning, and like rubber. - The patatas bravas were literally just plain steak fries. Also no seasoning but most importantly no bravas sauce or aioli. - The banana milkshake was mostly milk. Vanilla wasn't bad. - Banana split was pretty good, but it's hard to mess up scoops of ice cream and toppings. The woman who took my order wasn't rude by any means, but she was cold and almost seemed bothered to be dealing with an American even though I spoke mostly in Spanish. If you're really desperate for American food in Barcelona, I guess you can find worse, but if you have time, I'd go elsewhere. For what it's worth, the atmosphere was cool. Good music and aesthetic. Place was clean.

The Mississippi pancakes were generous in portion but a little lacking in sweetness for my…read moredaughter's taste. They could benefit from a bit more banana or fresh fruit to balance out the stack, especially given the size of the dish. The English breakfast was excellent, well-cooked and satisfying, and the side of chorizo stood out as particularly flavorful. Coffee was genuinely perfect, easily one of the highlights of the meal. The overall vibe is a classic European café style, relaxed and comfortable, good for a casual sit-down breakfast or brunch. One important note: this is not a place for traditional Spanish food. If you are looking for local Catalan or Spanish breakfast or tapas, this will feel more international than authentic. Overall, strong for coffee and comfort food, but not aligned with a traditional Barcelona culinary experience.good service and free WiFi

Great service is little to say, these guys make you feel like you're visiting their living room, and they will treat you like family. 5 star service every time, while the ambiance is well lit, always spotless clean and the amount of people at top capacity feels good. Epic! Actually I'm going there for breakfast right now! :) thanks again!

Fun little American beer bar style place in Barcelona…read more I've been here twice, and enjoyed both times! The beer selection is vast and great, I've enjoyed their wheat beer, as well as lagers. The wings are good too, my favs were garlic Parmesan, buffalo & buffalo mild. I love that they offer free water lol This is a great place for groups of about 4-8 anything more and you may not be able to fit on the same table. It's a fun pregame place, and I recommend it.

Note, if you make reservations via the fork you can get 20% off the a la carte menu. Eva was our server and she was wonderful. She checked on us frequently to see if we needed anything and would refill our water. Shestarted us off with a drink called chica mirada which my friend said tasted like potpourri but in a good way because it was flavorful. Then we were brought out bread with oil and this unique salt that made the bread pop. I ordered the duck meatball with pears and hazelnut praline for my entree. I think there was five per order. It was not very filling but very tasty and moist. The pear and praline added a touch of sweetness. For dessert, my friend and I split the Chocolate and Caramel Puffs. It was delectable. The puffs were warm and soft and the chocolate just melted right into my mouth. The service and food was great. Highly recommend.

While passing through Barcelona on our way to the south of Spain, we decided to stay for a night…read moreand have ourselves a memorable dinner. We decided to visit Llamber a tapas restaurant on the outskirt of Park de la Ciutadella. The restaurant has a light and airy ambiance, the tables are decently spaced for a more private conversation. We then started with a bottle of Spanish Rosé together with some tapas to share. We had the patitas, black pearl oyster served with rock salt and mignonette and the chef's take on a Spanish bao bun. We found the pork belly flavorful and crispy and blended well with the bun, in hindsight we should have ordered one for each. For our main entree, I ordered paella with seared tuna while my partner chose Entrocôte served with shishito peppers and fries. We found all the dishes simply epicurean and the waiters took time to describe everything on the menu. It was well plated and the dishes came in a timely fashion and everything went well with the wine choice. We felt that we were looked after throughout the stages of the dinner. With great customer service and quality of food, this place is recommended whenever you are visiting the beautiful city of Barcelona.

I absolutely LOVED Llamber…read more We stopped by this restaurant mid-afternoon for a quick bite . . . and a few quick drinks, and were very satisfied with the food, cocktails, and service. Since we had dinner plans for later in the evening, we went with a couple of tapas and gin-based cocktails. Para comer, we had the croquetes, tartar de remolatxa, bunyols de bacallà, and everything was pretty awesome. If I had to order our dishes from the best to good, it would go the bunyols, tartar, and the croquetes. Overall, the service was pretty good. One weird part of our experience: the restaurant had outdoor seating, but we were told that all of the tables were reserved so we had to eat indoors. That was not a problem. My concern was that in the entire time that we were dining (about an hour or so), we did not see a single person use any of the tables.
