A small, clean and unpretentious local cafe-bar, which is open between breakfast and early evening,…read moreclosing around 9pm. It sells the usual range of drinks, as well as a simple menu del Dia (Daily menu) of three courses with a drink for around EUR9, as well as a menu of light meals, pizzas, sandwiches, tapas and other snacks. Drinks prices are low - thanks to it being completely untouristy (it's situated a mile inland): bottled beers are under EUR2 each. Service from the owners is friendly, too. The only downer for me is that a few of the clientele seem to smoke something resembling old rope, so it's better when it's quieter.

The bar of La Parroquia has opened new premises (formally home to the restaurant Da Gianni, which…read moreclosed in late 2009). The new venue comprises a small bar area opening onto Plaça dels Cotxes. Go through the bar and you turn around the corner into two long rooms, with impressive brick-lined barrel-vaults, in which table service is offered. The beautiful brick arches are worth a drink just to look at the interior. (One of the arches is a no smoking area). The bar offers has the same impressively wide range of beers as the original venue, including an extensive selection of bottled German beers in different styles, including Dunkel (dark), Hell (light) and Hefeweizen (cloudy wheat beers). Prices for these imported beers are very reasonable at around EUR2.00 for a 33cl bottle. They also serve a decent range of Spanish style bar snacks, including hot and cold sandwiches, tapas, burgers and the like. They have TV screens in each bar, and it has already become a very popular venue for locals to watch football matches when Barcelona are playing

A small bar which has been open for about a year, with a cosy and traditional feel, derived from…read morelots of dark wood panelling and antique-style lamps. There are no tables, but a wide ledge with bar stools runs around the outside walls. Run by a friendly husband-and-wife team, it tends to get busier after 22.30h and attracts a slightly more mature crowd of mostly local regulars. There's a TV screen, mostly showing Spanish news and sport, but they also show music videos - classic pop and rock from the 1980s. Beers include the San Miguel range, with Guinness and Heineken on tap. They do nibbles (crisps, etc) but no other food. The whole bar is kept spotlessly clean, including the toilets, which are - quite literally - the cleanest I have ever seen in a bar or pub.

Tarragona and one onto the square itself. It serves the usual range of drinks and a limited menu of bar snacks and simple, hearty meals. Some interesting large air-brush paintings on the walls, with a Cuban theme. A very local feel to it the sort of place where everyone turns around to look at who has just come in

A small and relatively new bar in the 19th century part of Vilanova, with a double-height room with…read moreseating at high tables and a small snug with a fireplace. Decorated in red and black, it has something of a heavy rock / metal theme, augmented by posters of groups such as Iron Maiden and AC/DC. L'Avern is actually 'Hell' in Catalan, so the theme seems pretty consistent. That said, the music is not too intrusive if that's not your thing, and the staff were very friendly. Other customers seemed to be a mix of rock, goth and studenty types - and also friendly (a few politely moved so we could get to the bar, without being asked, which made us feel welcome). Prices were also very reasonable for beer and other drinks. The entrance is up a few steps and the lavatories are on the first floor.

A new business that has opened up in the former premises of L'Encantri. The interior has been…read morepainted silver-grey, with black and white furniture and an arch in one wall filled with wallpaper-sized poster of a night photograph of New York. It sounds a bit corny, but it works. Service was very friendly, although beers were limited to San Miguel or Kronenbourg lagers, wines and spirits. They serve light snacks including burgers, toasted sandwiches and ordinary sandwiches. Open at both lunchtimes and in the evening.

It's a place to order several dishes and share, with items such as mixed plates of cheese and patés designed for this. A decent meal for two comes to about EUR15-25 a head, depending on your choices. Staff are very friendly and helpful, and service is reasonably efficient, even though they are often busy (once with a family party of 20!). There is a small number of outside tables in the small square outside, and they also sell a small number of craft food products including, rather surprisingly, several types of Scottish-made shortbread. As with all restaurants here, they seem very child-friendly we've watched several large family parties dine, with three or four generations present!
