We were lured in by the most intoxicating smell down a little alleyway and had the best tea of our lives!! From the gypsy music, to the tea, to the decor, to the people working there, it was an incredible experience I'll never forget. We loved it so much we went two days in a row, for the amazing Golden Milk Tea and Remedio Tea. read more

It was a hot and humid day in Barcelona. This gem of a restaurant was a welcome respite from the day's activities. Salterio is located in the Gothic Quarter in the area of El Call. They have retained the gothic ambiance inside the restaurant, and it feels as though you are in medieval times. We were able to rest up a bit and sample some of their delicious food. The restaurant is small. We were lucky to get a nice table for two as most of the restaurant was full. We sampled their delicious vegetarian sardo. My husband, who is a meat and potato guy, was pleased with our selection and we left quite full. They have a wide selections of teas, but also serve wine and beer. Really cool place! read more

This is the place where you wanna try fresh, original and amazing Mediterranean food!! Made everything at the moment. My meal: sardo "cuatro estaciones" and radicchio salad ! The place is packed but the wait worth it ! read more

Salterio - Sardo cuatro estaciones - Tea Rooms Near Me - Barcelona, B

Amazing food! The food is literally made "in the moment" in front of you as your sit at the bar. Fresh ingredients, cooked and prepared on the spot. We ordered the "mushroom" dish and the "eggplant salad". Both were great options. It was sort of an eggplant pizza but on a light cracker freshly made. The mushroom dish was like a calzone but drag and thing crust. The sangria were fresh from a bottle of wine and we had both white and red sangria. I highly recommend it. It feels like an authentically local spot without the gothic quarter. read more

Great sangria Stopped in here for late night dinner and drinks for our first night in Barcelona. We had such a good time! The ambiance is warm and inviting: there is great music playing, a beautiful stone wall and intimate seating. We ordered a Sangria pitcher and a number of items: the Cheese Plate, Papa Bread with Tomato, Pesto Sardo and the Clasico Sardo. All of the food was outstanding- ESPECIALLY the Sardo dishes. I'm still dreaming about it back in Chicago:). The workers were super helpful and friendly; overall this place is a definite must see if you're in Barcelona! read more

AMAZING.....ambience, food, drink, service. Don't miss this place!!!!!! I was on a search for the best mint tea since I had an incredible experience 10 years ago in Granada. This met and exceeded my expectations! A true experience! Love love love it! read more

This is one heck of a hole in the wall that we found on Trip Advisor (sorry Yelp). This hidden gem is tucked in the dark alleyways near Placa de Sant Jaume. There aren't many tables in this Bohemian bar, but I've never had an issue being seated. The menu is small but ill make it easy on you. Order the two items below in mass quantities for a good time: Four Seasons Sardo A sardo is a mix of vegetables wrapped in a thin pita type bread. They drizzle sauce over the top and you simply cant get enough. We tried all of the sardos during our two trips to Barcelona but this one is hands down our favorite. Sangria Wine mixed with oranges, gala apples and mint hand cut by the old lady behind the bar. This was my favorite sangria throughout Spain. This is quite the relaxing place in the busy streets of Spain. As a meat lover i was quite surprised to enjoy a place without meat. Put this place on your itenerary for s late dinner after enjoying the plaza! read more

Thank you for the wonderful experience . Wonderful staff and a perfect lunch ! We are so happy to have found this little hole in the wall

A surprise among exceptional meals in Barcelona. Came here on the recommendation of a tour guide and he couldn't have been more right. Tiny spot in a quiet alley of Barcelona with delicious food. Never had a Sardo before and with champignons ... OMG, so very good! read more

Walked in here wanting a place to drink some tea, rest my feet and get away from the heat. This is indeed the place that fulfills those needs. As soon as you walk in, it feels very cozy, intimate and cool. It is not so well lit to preserve the feeling that u are in a cave. There is an English and Spanish menu that is very helpful. The people who work at the cafe are extremely nice. The bathroom and sink are located in a side room that is very dark. However, there is a switch to turn on the light. The flush on the toilet doesn't work. You need to pull up on the tin can on top of the toilet tank to flush it. Don't let the restroom and toilet prevent you from visiting this cafe. It's a diamond in the rough...Just be aware, they don't accept credit cards..CASH ONLY!! read more

Absolutely the best food I I have eaten in Barcelona. Very authentic . Wonderful small restaurant tucked away . Wish I could take this restaurant home with me . The REAL sangria ... read more

The atmosphere is incredible. My wife got the white sangria and loved it. I got the remedio tea and also loved it. If you come here you can't leave until you eat a Sardo, we thoroughly enjoyed the four seasons. Next time I am in Barcelona I will definitely make the trip back here read more

Sangria was top notch and the best atmosphere. Cute cozy place with gorgeous stone walls. The bathroom is really tiny so work quickly. The food was also really good. I can't wait to go back. read more

How good is this place? I will define my eating life pre & post this dark obscure hidden gem in one of the many streams of alleys that feed into La Rambla from the gothic quarter. When you travel the road less traveled you are sure to stumble into things that will change your life, ala this restaurant. Let's start with the Salterios literal hole in the wall, max of 10 people can probably fit inside but it makes for one intimate affair. The Sangria was out of this world, it's the first thing I ordered and I was wondering what was taking so long, well they Literally make it to order(cut the oranges, strawberries etc on the spot, mix the sugar and wine) no premade batches here. Best sangria I've ever tasted and it's not even close. To eat! I opted for a Classico, originally had no idea what it was and and yet I really still don't but it was two pieces of bread filled with the best tomatoes you'll ever taste in your life that taste like actual fruit paired with some cheese topped with maybe yogurt? I don't know and I don't care, I will be back to Barcelona just to eat and drink at this establishment again. To stay in Spanish tradition Ole! Salterio, ole my good friend! read more

Pure love and pure magic. Mediterranean fusion at its best! This place has some special energy that was felt and appreciated by everyone in my group. It was a small group of 3 and that's what Salterio is best for; a small group of your best loved friends or relatives to have an intimate dining/drinking experience. This is one of those rare places where everything you have is delicious. If you go, get these things: Sangria (white or red, both were amazing), olives (THE BEST OLIVES EVER!), tomato bread (it's flat bread, check the pic), four seasons Sardo (or any sardo, I'm sure they are all amazong), and finally the datil (date) cookies. Come here with no other plans, soak up every bit of old world ambiance, don't even think of meat the whole night (I love meat, but we didn't miss it that night) and just bathe in the love that the authentic and sweet natured staff exude. The only negatives I could possibly imagine is that it's too small, has a small menu (but everything is a mouthgasm so who cares) and has slow service( everything is made by hand with love and care). Do not let that deter you from experiencing a perfect dining experience at Salterio, a special and magical place!! read more

Fun, but tiny, spot that serves an awesome made to order sangria. Not sure if there is AC here, but it was blistery when we went. Really nice owners and it looked like 3 people did all the cooking and serving here. The guy behind the bar/kitchen had a great rhythm to everything he did, especially when making our sangria. In California we were used to pre-made batches of sangria, so seeing it made to order was a treat. To make a long review short, that sangria disappeared way to fast and was way too easy to drink. read more

We were visiting Barcelona lost in the gothic quarter and ran across this great spot! The decor is rustic and gothic, very intimate. It has a lot of mix and match tables and chairs and very quaint. The owner was working there and he was extremely kind and welcoming. Now the food, the sardos are delicious and the white Sangria is amazing! I would absolutely go back the next time I'm in town! read more

Lovely cozy relaxing place with nice teas/coffees and wines and very friendly staff/owner. Must try the sados. I sat at the bar and noted the owner took real care preparing every dish. You need to wait a bit for food but it's worth it. It is my favorite place in Barcelona. read more

I'm glad I checked in on Yelp here because I did not know the name of the place was Salterio! It's this tiny little cafe hidden away in one of the many narrow walkways in the Barri Gothic neighborhood of Barcelona. I thought it very unique and cozy! It's dark inside, seemingly light by candlelight. I had some tea, I don't remember anymore what kind of tea, but I drank a lot of it. I believe there was also some olives. Service was fairly slow, but pleasant. I enjoyed just sitting and people watching while I sipped my tea. It was the perfect spot to relax and rejuvenate before heading back out to be a tourist. read more

I had read online that this was some of the best Sangria in town. They were right. It took awhile because he had to cut all the fruit fresh but it was well worth the wait. I loved the pesto sardo!! It was amazing! read more

This tea room is lovely. Wonderful ambience and tea....but do not leave without a Sardo. Pick one, you won't be disappointed. It is basically an overstuffed quesadilla and perfect to share with a glass of tea or in my case a wonderful 2.5€ glass of wine. read more

I had the best sangria of my life here. And it should be the best, I waiting a half an hour for it. I love the interior of this place. Very rustic. We walked past this place, noticed the stone walls and had to go in! We ordered sangria and tomato bread. Which was excellent by the way. For some odd reason it took them ages to make our sangria. To the point I thought they forgot about us. But they didn't. Finally it came and we enjoyed what I think is the best sangria i've ever had. GOOGLE TRANSLTE::::::::::::: Tuve la mejor sangría de mi vida aquí. Y debe ser el mejor, esperando una media hora para ello. Me encanta el interior de este lugar. Muy rústica. Hemos pasado este lugar, se dio cuenta de las paredes de piedra y tenía que ir en! Pedimos sangría y pan con tomate. Que era excelente por cierto. Por alguna extraña razón que les llevó siglos para que nuestra sangría. Hasta el punto que pensé se olvidaron de nosotros. Pero no lo hicieron. Finalmente llegó y disfrutamos de lo que creo que es la mejor sangría que he tenido. read more

Very nice staff. Great value for money! The ambience was great and lots of people. I would certainly suggest this to close friends and relatives. Definately a winner winner. Salterio is a must go to. read more

Great, hidden gem in the alleys of the Gothic Quarter. We had 2 varieties of this dish called Sardo, 3 days ago, and I am still thinking about it! Just savory goodness. Cozy spot with a cool vibe with friendly service as well. read more

This is a great little gem hidden in the tiny tiny streets of El Gotico thanks Jamie for bringing us here and I must say that I'm not sure I'll be able to find it again. :-) The place is small 20 people top and run by a quite old woman from Sahara, if I remember correctly, and my understanding was that everything you eat here is homemade by her. I don't remember what I had but I remember distinctly that was awesome. Just try something out by yourself or ask, they'll explain to you (not sure they speak English though). It's no fast food here, you have to seat down, take your time, enjoy the atmosphere and the delicious food. read more

This place is magic! It is a tiny, dark restaurant perfect for drinks with a friend or two. The music, the friendly staff, and the relaxed atmosphere make this place the gem that it is. The red sangria was delicious- with fresh fruit and mint cut to order. The pesto sardo was also delicious. I visited three times over the course of my ten days in Barcelona and I will recommend it to anyone I know traveling in Spain. read more

This was one of the best places I've been to in Barcelona! Small and cozy tea house with delicious house specials, affordable prices really good music. This place is definitely a must visit if you're coming to Barcelona! read more

Wonderfully Unique. If you are looking for a place to lose time, eat some great food, and proper Sangria than this is your place. Extensive tea menu. read more

Very good service and their sardo is worth to try. Its unlike the food in Barcelona we tried.

Best hidden secret in the world! I was a frequent visitor during my summer semester abroad. The white sangria was to die for! I still talk about it to this day, and it's been years. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. Everything from here is a delight. read more

Miserable. Greasy. Terrible service. These are the nicest words I have to describe this horrific place.

Winding through the old city, the towering ancient stone alley led us to another place and time!

We found by accident but this is our favorite spot in Barcelona. Sardo Classico was amazing. We bumped into a fun group from Britain and enjoyed a great, fun evening. Sangria was delicious. Food and drinks are prepared by hand. Small, cozy out of the way spot. Crowded but staff is friendly and accommodating. read more

The best sangria in Barcelona...no contest! And it's organic. The place is small and authentically quaint. The menu is entirely vegetarian and delicious. The sarda four seasons is a 'best ever'..the use of olive oil and sesame seeds is really delicious and I wish I could take this place home with me. A great place to lose yourself for a couple of hours in the middle of the afternoon. The music is great and totally chill. A true gem! read more

This is a dark and cozy tea spot tucked into one of the alleys in Barri Gothic. My husband and I showed up here to kill a little time before a tour we had scheduled. Nobody else was in there at the time but the guy running the place, so it must have been an off time. I had white tea (they were out of oolong, sadly) and my husband had a glass of wine. They also had a few snacks on the menu, but we had eaten not too long ago. Everything was quality, and the atmosphere was nice. I'd recommend it. read more

Once you finally find this charming place, it is so worth it. The restaurant is so cozy and a very special find.

Dug out little cave surrounded with exposed bricks, not the trendy deliberately curated stuff, but the real deal. These are the original walls of 12th century. I kept staring, and couldn't get it out of my mind, that this was the actual wall from hundreds of years ago. I felt as if I was dreaming, such a charming tiny jewel box of a place, mini wooden round tables and chairs of sticks with tiny glass colored Moroccan chandeliers, emerald green and translucent crimson, deep amber, and velvet purple ... little tiki's glimmering and glittering from the ceilings. Dark and cavernous in the best way, my eyes adjusted to the darkness gradually, I saw others sipping mint tea in patterned gold gilded glasses. I had never been in a place like this ever in my life, and it's not as if I've never been to Europe. It was owned and operated by a couple, who seemed to be doing everything--greeting, seating, cooking, serving, cleaning ... what else is left to do? The hardest working couple. Behind the simple bar full of wine bottles, we saw that they did not have a full kitchen, nor an actual stove with burners, not an oven or broiler. They cooked everything on a hotplate, similar to what a college student might have in their dorm room or what we had in our early student days living in a studio in someone's garage. We were given a small menu, off of which we ordered a ramekin of brilliantly and vibrantly flavored green Sicilian olives and black--deeply marinated and sprinkled with dried herbs, oregano, peppers, pink salt. Radicchio salad with cheese, olives, and a stuffed grilled pita of mushrooms, tomato, pesto, grilled onions. In any other restaurant I would've minded that so many of the same ingredients were used over and over, a repeat offender, so to speak. But I can forgive anything, because here, they were doing so much with so little, and trying incredibly hard. The food itself was tasty and earthy, huge and hearty portions, they didn't skimp, and you could tell they loved feeding people. Oh how I wish I had taken photos to upload here.Warm, friendly, gracious service and hands down the ultimate charm in ambience. Even if the food hadn't been so soulful and satisfying, I'd go back here just for the atmosphere and to soak in stepping into another era. read more

This place has made our trip. We will definitely be back one more time for the sangria! The service was fantastic and they knew exactly what we were looking for in tapas. I can't wait to try other menu options next time! read more

Cheezus..! Very friendly and cozy place in romantic Gotic. Not the fastest service around, but the north african inspired tortillias was divine! read more
