Today it's time to go out for tapas, to discover the local gastronomy by visiting the best bars and restaurants in Barcelona. But we're not going to visit just any corner of Barcelona, we're going to one of its best neighbourhoods: El Poblenou.
This emblematic Barcelona neighbourhood, a former strategic point of the city's industrial muscle, is now the epicentre of an art, leisure and technology movement the likes of which the city has not seen for a long time.
Where to eat, eat tapas and drink in El Poblenou
Among all the things that go on in El Poblenou, Barcelona's liveliest, most dynamic and safest neighbourhood, we must highlight the gastronomic scene.
As with the rest of the neighbourhood, its gastronomy shows a perfect balance between the traditional and the avant-garde, the traditional and the new. And within this panorama, do you know who benefits the most? Exactly, you, who will follow our tips to enjoy the best tapas in the city.
Bar LATROUPE Poblenou Beach
Whatever is in Latroupe, it doesn't exist. The best corner of the best neighbourhood, that's how we could sum up the bar at the Latroupe hostel. As well as being a copy of the good vibes of the neighbourhood, add to that an international atmosphere, with a wide variety of tapas, craft beers to go with them and coffee for dessert.
But you can drop by at any time of the day, whether it's for a buffet breakfast or a nightcap at one of the themed parties, so what are you waiting for to take the pulse of Poblenou at one of its most popular meeting points?
Bitácora PobleNou
Daily menus at fantastic prices and with all the atmosphere of the neighbourhood concentrated in one place. It's one of the locals' favourite tapas bars, and for good reason.
From cod croquettes to homemade cheesecake, their tapas are tasty and elaborate with great service. And all while you soak up the sun on their fantastic terrace surrounded by the vibrant life of Poblenou.
Kalamata Tapas & Gin Tonic
We take a small leap of elegance and arrive at Kalamata Tapas & Gin Tonic, where its more traditional tapas do not go against the sophistication of the place. Once again we find ourselves in a place that has managed to capture the spirit of the whole neighbourhood on the table.
That perfect balance between tradition and innovation, where you can enjoy traditional gastronomy and order a cocktail with a completely avant-garde theme and preparation. We've already told you that this area of the city is completely magical.
La Pubilla del Taulat
We tip the balance towards the side of tradition, here we let ourselves be loved by the traditional, by history, by our history.
Come and enjoy an old-fashioned bodega, wine cellar, decorated with tiles and a cave interior, a real bodega, just as you can imagine it. Once you step inside, you will wonder why it took you so long to come here, and we have warned you about it.
Wines and vermouth of the highest quality to garnish their tapas, their speciality being tapas that talk about the sea, fish and seafood. A real treat for the palate.
El 58
The 58 will make you fall in love and catch you as soon as you arrive. Then don't tell me we didn't warn you. Its decoration with alternative art, its atmosphere, its staff, everything embraces you as soon as you arrive and makes you feel at home from the first second.
And, in case you forgot, we came here to eat. And that's when it will become one of your favourite places, not only in Poblenou but in the whole of Barcelona.
Their tapas are very tasty, mixing traditional dishes with modern and distinctive touches of the house. The quality of their dishes is superior and the prices are very reasonable. It's a place that will get you and you, for sure, will let it get you. A fantastic experience both culinary and social.
Cata by Catacroquet

Paradise is not just a figure of speech, if you are one of those who eats croquettes knowing that it will burn your palate, knowing that it is pure volcanic magma, and you still put it in your mouth, stop looking because this is your place.
