Mealtimes in Barcelona: When You’ll Be Eating Lunch, Dinner, and In-Between Meals | Eater

"A mainly vegetarian restaurant that emphasizes creative flavor combinations — for example, squash blossoms with cashew cream, pico de gallo, and goji berries — alongside notable homemade juices; the Raval location also features a rooftop terrace open in summer months." - Melissa Leighty

Beautiful setting in a trendy location with incredible food. Great for vegetarian and vegans with plenty of options. The staff are friendly and helpful. They have a wide variety of menu and this was my second visit having been first in 2020 and again in 2025. Both times the food was amazing and would visit on return to Barcelona again.

It’s clean, easy to find, and the staff was very polite. Lots of great healthy options and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for healthy food. It felt very welcoming and inviting and I’d definitely go back.

very beautiful and cool place with a cute terrace on the second floor - sat in the sun and had the smash burger and the pastrami focaccia (both vegan and really tasty). They have a wide selection of different dishes and a lot of vegan options. Will definitely come back!

Really nice atmosphere, great vibes, music, space and location. The food was really tasty. The menu was a bit dissapointing, there are not that many plant based vegan options overall and many things are only available during certain hours of the day. The waiter' attitude was also a bit off, I didn't realize I can't order anything off the menu.. so she had me choose something available till 12:30. I didn't realize it was 12:26 and could've waited a few minutes for more options.. or she could've just take my order and have it made after a few minutes.. i didn't get the insisting.. i could've spent more money on something more filling. Anyway..

Great service. Very fast. The interior of the place is amazing, very vibrant. The salmon healthy bowls were amazing as well as the kale chips and their homemade kambucha!

Lovely lovely atmosphere. It reminded me of a Californian brunch place. So many food selections all the way from Korean bowls to burgers and tacos and immunity shots. The prices are surprisingly reasonable given how much goes into the dish all the way from the way it is sourced to how it is presented. The smoothies are unique and are a must try. Service size is respectable. If it’s a nice, sunny day make sure to get a table on the terrace.

Really good food, beyond expectations for a “modern” brunch place. We shared everything, it was great. Sweets were a bit much, but I guess that was the point. They are short-staffed so things were quite slow - staff was very helpful, though, and they remembered everything. It’s in a nice building, and they grow veggies and herbs (apparently in collaboration with an organization, see the pictures). Definitely nice

What a lovely find in the city centre. The food is good and the staff are very friendly - great service, especially from Rafael. The roof terrace which a kitchen garden is a beautiful place to enjoy brunch!

Flax and kale is a delicious restaurant that was super close to my hotel in Barcelona. It is a huge restaurant with two stories and delicious food. They also offer retail of their delicious Kombucha and cold pressed juices. Their menu is extensive with healthier options and many vegan and vegetarian dishes. The menu comes in three languages Catalan, English and Spanish. Upstairs on their Terrance there are seats surrounding their farm to table garden as well. I got the salmon sliders with fresh cut sweet potatoes in a fry shape and their kombucha. I actually went back 3x during my stay for their kombucha to go and everything I tried was delicious but my favorite was the cola flavor.

A very nice healthy restaurant with a cool menu, however no "meat options" mainly eggs and other non meat for protein. The decor here is beautiful and great to go for brunch. Two amazing floors with an outside seating on the second floor.

Very chill, fun place. The menu is packed with delicious options. Cold-Pressed Juices: Energy Boost - 4/5 To Nibble & Starters: Crunchy Yellowfin Taco - 5/5 Leafy Greens: Alaska Salmon Bibimbap - 5/5 Menu is loaded with tasty options. Service can be a tad on the slow side. Tacos are delicious. The juices are amazing.

/)/) ( . .) ( づ I loved this place so much I went there twice during my 4 days stay here. Highly recommend the açaí bowl (only on weekends). The tuna and yellowfin tacos were the best, don't really liked the salmon taco. Really liked the bread from the scrambled eggs dish. Was hoping for more from the paleo bread (was still good but wouldn't recommend ordering it). Nachos is a must. The cheese was sooooo goood wow. the tuna burger was really not that great but the risotto was so nutty and delish! Worth going! Prices are not too high.

Great service. Beautiful space with two floors. Lots of windows and decor is beautiful. Bathrooms are clean. Food came out quickly. Menu has lots of variety and the cold pressed juice is spectacular. Ordered the tuna burger. Was mediocre and the bun was a bit moist. The tuna burger didn't have much flavor but the wasabi Mayo was great. The roast carrots it came with were spectacular.

This is a fancy tiny place with a fancy menu. I wouldn't recommend for picky eaters but if you love healthy exotic plates, this is your place. In the center of the city, amazing views and a cozy place. I ordered curry with rice and they have a watermelon salad which sounds weird but delicious. The juices/drinks are good but pricy.

Este es un pequeño restaurante maravilloso. Le da un toque saludable tanto a los platos familiares como a los exóticos que normalmente no probarías. Tuve un maravilloso curry hecho con calabaza y un delicioso pastel con infusión de cacao para el postre. Ambos estaban deliciosos. Los clientes que son quisquillosos tienen muchas opciones para el desayuno, el brunch y la cena, que incluyen jugos prensados en frío, yogures a base de plantas y toques frescos en los elementos del menú más tradicionales. Tengo un apetito saludable vendiendo seguros, y Flax & Kale es una sorpresa agradable y deliciosa que da en el clavo.

Hello english speaking tourist here! I was very happy that the staff were able to communicate well with me despite the fact that my family and I are still in the process of learning Spanish. The atmosphere is perfect for a date- but as a family we were still very welcome and didn't feel strange at all. The ravioli is very good and so are the salmon burgers. Do splurge on some chocolate vegan cake . My favorite restaurant from my trip to barcelona!

This restaurant is way bigger than I thought when I first walked in. All of their fresh ingredients are exposed and you can even see their pantry on the second floor. Options are locally grown, fresh, and even with Vegan options. I got the Symbiotic Passion Kombucha and the Healthy Eggs Royale. It was the perfect brunch and maybe the best Eggs Benedict I have ever had. The eggs were runny to perfection, the salmon was not salty or fishy tasting, and the Vegan curry sauce they used really punched in the flavor with every bite! As I finish my meal, I feel like I could eat more, but as I let the thought settle, my stomach finally communicates with my brain and says it's full. Every bite felt like I was eating something fresh and healthy. Like the sayings on their wall, I ate better, am leaving happier, and really do feel like I'll live longer! The service here is on point as well. The waitress was very helpful in explaining the menu and giving me suggestions. Everyone here is friendly and has a big smile on their face, which makes me feel like everyone is happy to work here. Good food, great atmosphere, happy employees this is really an ideal place to get food. I'm sure their dinner menu is just as great. I'll definitely have to make another stop here in the future when I'm in Barcelona again.

Flax and Kale is a rare restaurant, even in a city that is as vegan/vegetarian-friendly as Barcelona. No joke...Flax and Kale is really really unique. The thing about Flax and Kale is that it isn't specifically vegan/vegetarian - it's "flexitarian" with an emphasis on healthy foods rather than a specific dietary requirement. And it's awesome! So, in addition to the the house-made plant-based protein sources, they also serve fish - specifically fish that are high in Omega 3 fats (think salmon and tuna). Let's talk a bit about the food itself - the plant-based protein is house-made so it isn't like what is commercially available...it's so much better. They also make their own kombucha, and if I could have shipped a year's supply back to the United States I would have. Lots of the vegetables and herbs are grown in the garden upstairs too! Everything looked great, and I can go to my grave happy after having their nachos - they might be the best I've ever had. We came for dinner the night we arrived in Barcelona, and were seated quickly. We came back a few days later for brunch, also without reservations, and had to wait 5 minutes. But, this seemed like a rarity, so reservations are probably the better way to go. Menus are available in English, Spanish, and Catalan, so non-locals will feel comfortable ordering as well. I can't say enough good things about this place. Any vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, should make this an essential stop in Barcelona.

Spain is synonymous with tapas. But sometimes you got to listen to your body and eat some greens! Having had my body 98% composed of tapas for nearly a week, I was in need of some serious veggies. Not going to lie, I honestly thought this was going to be some disappointing hipster place. Saw the picture of the restaurant and figured the high ratings were due to the decor and non-foodies. But I'm happy that wasn't the case! We stopped in for lunch. Had the option of sitting on the terrace or inside. Due to the heat wave, we opted for the air condition indoor seating. The decor is cute. But if it was cooler, I highly recommend choosing the terrace! Took a peek when I headed upstairs to the restroom at the end of our meal and instantly wished we chose the terrace. (Side note: the restroom is cute! Yes you read that right, haha.) The waiters were friendly. Even though we didn't know Spanish, language wasn't an issue since the staff were fluent in English as well. My biggest gripe was that an extra kombucha was brought to us, even though we didn't order it. I could've easily sent it back, but I drank it anyway since my gut needed some TLC. Now onto the food! Not only is the presentation visually pleasing, it's also a delight on the taste buds. All the dishes here has a clean and light taste to it. The Teresa's Favourite Kale Salad was filling. Added the anchovy option. Was my first time trying anchovy and it was actually pretty good! Nothing horrible like I had imagined. The kale and cherry tomatoes were refreshing. And this also applies to the pasta as well, the Supertagliatelle. And for those who never had spirulina, you can't taste it in the pasta. The salmon that came with it was perfectly seasoned and well done. Definitely don't skip out on getting this dish. Now I wish there was a Flax & Kale here in LA. Here's to clean eating in Barcelona!

To break up our Spanish tapas fest, I researched restaurants with healthier options in Barcelona. The name Flax and Kale came up often and the restaurant looked beautiful so I added it to our list. We came for brunch one Sunday around 9/9:30 before going to the MNAC. As luck would have it this location was a short walk from our Airbnb. First, the restaurant is beautiful and quite spacious. It has exposed brick with high ceilings and large plants situated by the windows. In the entry they have several fridges filled with assorted kombucha and juices. I was in heaven. I settled on the "Mother Africa." They also had several sweets and bakery items on display. I ordered the "healthy pancakes" with blueberry soya yogurt, fresh blueberries, and maple syrup. The presentation was great and the pancakes had a nice flavor but they were dense in texture. Like the name said, I felt like they tasted "healthy." I also tried two of their donuts (turmeric ginger and maple-glazed). They were gluten-free. Again, they both had good flavor but the texture was dense (think more bread-like). I also tried some of their kale chips and really enjoyed them. My dining companions ordered egg dishes and I checked in with them and they all liked their food. Perhaps the savory items are where they really shine. Our food came out pretty quickly. Not sure how, or if, that would change during peak times. When we first arrived, there were only a few other tables occupied but by the time we left many of the tables had filled up. All in all the food was filling and the prices were reasonable. They clearly put a lot of effort into presentation which I appreciate. The next time I'm in Barcelona, I'll come back but I'll try something new.

Amazing food! Beautiful patio seating. My husband and I were there in late may. I have a dairy allergy so we always try places that can accommodate that. We would definitely come back when we're back in Spain one day!

Healthy, innovative restaurants are popular in places like California & Hawaii (both places I've called home), but Flax & Kale simply does it better! I'd be so bold as to even say maybe even THE BEST! My husband and I were in Barcelona for a short 33 hours to attend an FC Barcelona match at Camp Nou before returning to Paris than back to California, and thanks to Yelp, we discovered this wonderful restaurant! Not only does Teresa Carles and her team do delicious, creative healthy cuisine well, they have been pioneers in the health food industry long before it even became "hip" in California (since 1979)! We were so impressed, the next day we went to the Flax & Kale Passage AND stopped by Teresa's juice bar to fuel our bodies up for a day of turbo sightseeing before our flight! I could go on and on about how impressive their menu is, how delicious and creative their appetizers, entrées, desserts, and beverages are, and how beautiful the restaurant is, from their multi-level seating areas to their intimate private dining rooms, and the outdoor garden patio! The whole experience blew us away despite the fact that this type of cuisine (i.e. flexitarian/vegetarian/vegan/plant-based) is normal for us! Our dinner highlights: * Grilled Watermelon * Funghi Coconut Toast * Roasted Carrots & Avocado Salad * Supertagliatelle * Coco Masala Chai Ice Cream (Yes, somehow we made room for dessert as we couldn't pass up trying their plant-based healthy ice creams!) The service here was very friendly and our server, Francisco, was fantastic! If you live in Barcelona, I truly envy you! We can't wait to come back here again! Oh, and I will surely be writing reviews for the F&K Passage and Teresa's locations too. Ok, done swooning now... ;)

My roommate and I fell in love as soon as we walked into Flax & Kale. The place is huge, with plenty of booths and tables in a modern space. It was a weekend morning, so there were quite a lot of customers. I ordered the "Rainbow Coconut Milk Parfait". Just from the name, I was expecting top notch presentation. Sure enough, I received a very colourful bowl of blue yogurt and plenty of toppings. Coffee was also solid. What impressed me most about this establishment was its attention to dietary restrictions. My roommate is gluten intolerant, and usually finds it quite difficult to identify an appropriate dish to eat. Here, the menus clearly indicated whether or not each item was gluten-free, plant-based, etc. What made this review 4 stars instead of 5 was the aftermath. I am not usually intolerant to any foods, but something in my brunch had my stomach upset for the rest of the day. Could have just been a fluke. I think I will come back to try something more savoury, as everything here seems super healthy :)

Who's says brunch can't be healthy ? Flax & Kale takes local, organic, and healthy food to the next level. From the presentation to the atmosphere of the restaurant -- I was completely blown away. I ordered the açaí bowl and avocado toast. The açaí bowl was sooo delicious! It was filled with mixed berries, granola, and some flax seeds. Don't be fooled, the portion may look small, but this bad boy will fill you up! I also ordered the avocado toast, which was a hefty portion as well. I enjoyed this, and the presentation was beautiful. In the warmer months they have a rooftop area where you can chill. They also have olive oil and balsamic vinegar for sale!

This place came recommended by a friend living in Barcelona when my travel crew mentioned we were craving some veggie based meals. I have to say I was not dissapointed. When you walk in the space is HUGE and very chic looking. Mak note they actually have two floors and the upstairs is a gorgeous patio area. If you can be seated up there I definitely recommend it. There were a ton of menu choices but I settled on the "No Digas Tacos" and one of their green juices. Less than 20 minutes later I was presented with a delicious looking, albeit DIY taco platter. It was nice to assemble them how I wanted and while everything is good just now the gauc is phenomenal. I couldn't get enough. That said these tacos translated to $20 which is pretty steep even by my bougie LA vegan food standards. Granted no one forced me to order these, but just prepare for some sticker shock here. The green juice I ordered was really good as well, if I were in Barcelona longer I would definitely have bought more for the road. They have a ton of bottled juice options in the front of the place if you just want to walk in and buy those you can. Expensive but also very very worth it. Would certainly come here again.

Quite an average experience. Before we start, please note that the different Flax & Kale locations offer different menus and an overall different experience, this review covers just the Carrer dels Tallers location. During my visit to Barcelona, we stoped at Flax & Kale. This location offers two distinct atmospheres (indoor cozy space and outdoor rooftop garden with beautiful views and a feeling of outside of town). And the rooftop is probably the highlight of the visit. We tried a variety of dishes during our visit ranging from a tuna tartar, to salads, to chocolate chip cookies; and all of them failed to impress. Non of the dishes that we tried were outstanding, and some felt like dishes from a "ready to go" restaurant. Overall, if you want to visit a flax & kale, i would recommend one of the other locations. My Criteria 5 stars: The best food I have ever had, or an excellent option given the price. 4 stars: Good food, a restaurant I look forward to trying again. 3 stars: Good food, a restaurant that I am indifferent to. 2 stars: Below average experience, will not go again. 1 stars: This restaurant should be closed.

Is it possible to want to live inside a restaurant and never come out? If so, I'd pick Flax & Kale for my culinary abode. Definitely not your typical Barcelona fare and more reminiscent of something you'd find on every major boulevard on the west coast, but they do it so well and with such fresh, inexpensive ingredients that you don't care that it's not unique to the area. The two stories are just beaming. The upstairs is only open come lunch and dinner time, but if you make your way to the restroom during early morning hours, you get a peek into its charm. It's atrium meets quirky boardroom meets hacienda style indoor seating and bar. There's even a little garden in the middle of the rooftop seating...some of their stuff is literally garden to table. Fresh pressed juices and smoothies made right before your eyes (if you sit at the bar downstairs), as well as some heavenly earthier items in bowls and jars. The menu is quite extensive, so be prepared to do some serious laboring over what to settle on. I had a green juice, ginger turmeric vegan donut (a dense, spiced treat!), and a crunchy fish taco (obviously not bfast-y, but on their bfast menu, which I appreciated since the donut and juice served as my starter meal). Absolutely gorgeous, vibrant colors and beautiful presentation.

Delicious and creative food for vegans and pescatarians. The food was delicious and beautiful to look at. This is my 2nd time here when I visit my son. He is an omnivore and he also enjoyed it very much. Just wish I had had room for dessert. We split a delicious salad with beets and carrots and avocado, arugula, sprouts and more. And then we split the BBQ ribs tacos - plenty for two people - we were stuffed. The ribs looked and had the mouth feel of meat - just a wonderful treat for me. Will definitely be back on my next trip.

I loved this restaurant! A lot of healthy options on the menu. They have something for everyone no matter what the dietary restriction could be. The food is not only presentable, but also delicious. The atmosphere is really cozy and warm with nice decor and small thoughtful touches. Despite it being a huge place, the restaurant is packed and there is a line-up usually, so make reservations in advance. Unfortunately we found this place at the end of our trip to Barcelona and had the chance to dine here only once. We will definitely be back again on our next trip!

We had just gotten back to Barcelona after being in Costa Brava (incredible food!) and decided to walk to La Sagrada Familia. Along the way we came across Flax & Kale to my daughter's delight. I'm still not sure how she knew about the spot but we decided to get a "snack". That snack turned out to be a fantastic experience. We tried the mushroom tacos with cashew "sour cream ", Avocado toast on a massive hunk of hearty bread and a pink pitaya bowl (best ever). We also tried a fish taco which was also so good I did not share! Everything... and I really do mean everything was beautiful and delicious. We r leaving BCN tomorrow but plan to head back for breakfast.

Not the best tasting vegetarian food. I ordered a Mediterranean avocado toast which was decent but nothing special. Additionally one of the egg dishes and that was sadly disappointing. It was bland and needed some flavor to it. My bf ordered pumpkin ravioli which also was very bland. The chai tea was the only highlight. If you're coming here, I would stick to pastries and lattes, coffees, teas.

One of the most delicious healthy restaurant I've been too! They have a selection of vegan, vegetarian, raw, and healthy fish dishes. They also have great cold pressed juices, kombucha, smoothies, açaí bowls, and desserts. We ordered and highly recommend any of these dishes: - Açaí Bowl (I prefer this one for the berry variety and chestnut crumble) - Pink Pitaya Bowl - Raw Superfoods Salad (I got this twice. The hummus is so fluffy, light, and flavorful. Who needs dressing?!) - Veggie Burger (the grilled veggies that came with this was bomb - so juicy, smoky, and tasty) - Poke Salad (fresh fish, creamy dressing, and super light) - Mother Earth Kombucha - Rejuvenator Smoothie was too sweet for me. It's on the pricy side with about 15 euros for a plate.

Amazing amazing health food! The coconut yogurt was to die for. So many amazing options to choose from. I wish I had found this place sooner. Wanted to try a lot more items from the menu. Didn't realize, in this location there was a whole outdoor patio on the second floor! Wish I would've known because it was beautiful out that day. I would just say, the service was meh. That's the only reason I don't give the place 5*.

I'm in love! I don't know exactly why, but the name "Flax & Kale" through me off. Maybe I thought of those two flavors together, and didn't like the idea. But I am SO GLAD I came! First off, be warned, it's not inexpensive to eat here. That being said, it doesn't completely break the bank. It got really busy as the night went on, so come early, or make reservations. The patio seating upstairs is to die for! It's very cute atmosphere, and you are sitting next to a garden with veggies and herbs. We got both soups. Both were delicious! And we had a couple of the very unique cold pressed juices from down stairs. For dinner, we shared the mushroom tacos. They were very good! And quite filling. They have fish options, vegan options and gluten free options. The menu is very clear about which options are which. I will definitely be back to try more of this gorgeous menu!

I've decided that the positive reviews for this place must stem from its novelty in Barcelona. It's just a copy of every other overdone hipster salad bar/juicery you can find anywhere in the US. Seeking something lighter after days of eating heavy Spanish fare, hubby and I came here on the recommendation of our concierge. The restaurant is beautiful, sure, but in that renovated warehouse way (large windows, exposed ceilings, and open kitchen) that every new restaurant looks like nowadays. I can see how that's an appealing juxtaposition to the architecture in Barcelona, though. There were many open tables but we were seated at a large table to share with another couple. No big deal. Onto the food: We got a tropical smoothie, which was good, but thicker than a normal smoothie. It had to be eaten with a spoon. We ordered the kale salad and Green Power Raviolo. The kale salad was actually pretty good, with the exception of the sliced radish, which was really bitter. The ravioli was cold and tasteless. If I'm reading the menu correctly it's not even gluten free so I'm not sure why it was so blah tasting. I ate it all because I was hungry, so I guess it couldn't have been that bad. Overall, an interesting, light, healthy option in a sea of paella and tapas restaurants in Barcelona. Good for vegetarians and "flexitarians" (I learned a new word!) but not for meat and carb eaters like me (or anyone who loves flavor).

During our 5-day stay in Barcelona, my boyfriend and I have visited this place 3 times - we dined there on 2 different occasions and we also decided to pick up some juices on the way to the beach. It was also a nice break from all of the carbs and carne we were eating from the previous weeks. I'd like to say our meals here were sort of a detox! The ambience is amazing - it's very spacious with high ceilings and it even has a second floor for additional seating! Natural light coming in from the windows which makes for amazing photos! Now let's get to the food. When my boyfriend and I dined here, we got the grilled watermelon as an appetizer. It kinda weirded us out for a bit but just from reading the reviews, everyone was raving about it. And boy was it life-changing!! The watermelon and goat cheese complemented each other so well. As far as our meals, I got the salmon mini burgers and one of their scrambles, which is available for weekend brunch! It was extremely delicious and very filling. I've also had one of the best smoothies I've ever had in my entire life here, which was called El Batido de Cubano (coconut water, coconut milk, raw cocoa, bananas, and agave syrup). Despite it being such a popular place, we never had to wait more than 10 minutes for a table. Their service is very speedy and they're extremely hospitable. I highly recommend coming here if you're ever visiting Barcelona!

Beautiful restaurant, reasonable service, delicious food with plenty of veggies. Living in a hotel for two weeks has meant eating out for every meal, in other words, a pretty unbalanced diet. So, having so many plant based options was a godsend. However the prices are very similar to what we pay in San Francisco so don't expect low prices here. I had the creamy kale soup and paleo bread which was wonderful. I will be back for more no question! It came with kale chips that were delicious, way better than the store bought stuff. The reason for 4 stars and not 5 - My friend had the salmon entree which we had to send back because it was really undercooked. When it came back it was still less cooked compared to what you would get in most restaurants in the US. He went weird later that day and for a £20 they should cook the salmon to the appropriate doneness without being asked. It did taste good but unless they are using sushi grade fish that can definitely make people sick. If you get the salmon just ask them to make it medium cooked. If the weather is nice also try to sit upstairs as they have a beautiful 2nd floor with a garden

Amazing food experience here in Barcelona. Everything from the atmosphere to the service was fantastic. Spent a Sunday morning here, arrived around 11am which was perfect because soon after the brunch rush approached and the wait time was longer. We were able to be seated right away! We started off with Cappuccino, which were delicious. I had mines with a double shot. We then had the avocado toast which was very tasty & FILLING. The bread consist of a thick slice and the amount of avocado on top was more than enough. The presentation was simply beautiful. I also tried the eggs Benedict it was decent. The mushrooms had a bit of a strong flavor more than my liking. We ended with the açaí bowls which were tasty! Also very fillings, we wanted to make sure to try as much as possible, however anything you order here; portions will be more than enough. The staff was very friendly and the elevator ride to the restrooms is so cute. The women's restroom was soaked in sunlight and beautiful decor inside. Loved this place!!

AMAZING food - 100% recommend this place for all food lovers!! I was visiting a vegan friend in Barcelona and was so excited to try new veg places and Flax & Kale did not disappoint! We actually went here twice in a span of 2 days because there was so much on the menu I wanted to try (and I'm not even vegan!) I tried the green power raviolo the first time which was absolutely delicious and flavor packed and the veggie panang red curry the second time which was probably the best red curry I've ever had!! I also got a bottle of the coco masalachai - super delicious and refreshing, and perfect if you're in the mood for tea and juice at the same time ;) My friend also recommends all the smoothies! If I lived in Barcelona, I would be there every day. To the owners- please consider opening a branch in New York! I would do anything for some coco masala chai right now.

Súper bien! This place is fantastic. The ambience is relaxing and informal. The food is phenomenal and they prepare all of the food with fresh ingredients. The staff speak many different languages so don't be hesitant to try your native tongue if your Spanish or Catalan isn't great. I ordered the carrot salad and it did not disappoint. I highly recommend trying this place.

My mom and I loved the breakfast here so much that we went twice on our recent short trip to Barcelona. The plant-based 'bacon and cheese' bagel is phenomenal! The fruit market salad was also very fresh and yummy! The decor of this place is also very pretty!

Great place! I found through yelp and while I'm Barcelona I wanted to make sure I tried nice places with great food and classy environments. This place was cute and tucked away in a quiet area. I had the Salmon Shasimi with egg whites on gluten free toast with green tea. Everything tasted so fresh. The customer service was great as well. When I return to Barcelona this will definitely be a go to spot.

It's more like a 3-3.5 stars but it's one of the only healthy restaurants in Barcelona so if that's what you're looking for, this place might be for you. The atmosphere is nice but the food is just okay. Frankly, if you're on vacation, I think you'd be better off skipping this place and indulging in one of many other amazing restaurants Barcelona has to offer.

My boyfriend and I came here for brunch with pretty high expectations since this spot is very close to our hotel and is ALWAYS packed. We shared a smoothie (called the rejuvenator) and a chai tea, both were good. I liked how the smoothie came with goji berries in it, that was a good touch. I ordered the breakfast bagel with vegan cheese and bacon. I also added a poached egg to it and enjoyed the sandwich as a whole. The "bacon" on its own had a pretty odd texture but that's pretty much to be expected when you're turning coconut into something that tastes like bacon.. my boyfriend on the other hand wasn't as excited about his meal, he ordered the poke fish taco and it came out pretty disappointing. The taco barely had any fish on it, it was mainly cabbage, and it was served on its own as just a small taco. The size of it wasn't really the issue, it just wasn't at all satisfying because of the lack of actual fish on it. I still give this place a 4 because I was happy with my meal, and the overall atmosphere and idea of the restaurant is cool. I love a good healthy meal!

Good spot to break from all that iberico ham! Loved the salmon sushi toasts and green smoothie. Patio seating upstairs is lovely.

I came here off a couple recommendations from friends and was really looking forward to a healthy breakfast! The restaurant had a lot of seating, so we didn't have to wait long. The atmosphere was really lovely! The menu had over 30 items and was incredibly hard to choose from since everything sounded amazing. Since it was relatively inexpensive, I opted to try a few different things. The food was all beautifully presented, but the actually taste wasn't anything special. Furthermore, the service here was absolutely horrid! I recommend checking out Brunch & Cake instead! My friends and I went there 2 mornings in a row, and probably would have gone a third if we knew how disappointing this place would be in comparison.

A refreshing delight to any appetite. You can't go wrong with the healthy array of amazing cold press juices and natural smoothies. My tuna wasabi burger today was out of this world delicious! Great open and comfortable decor. Very friendly and professional staff. If you want to detox or reset your tummy this is a great place to visit. And it's also very amazing for any time of the day nosh.
