7 OF OUR FAVORITE CAFÉS WITH THE BEST COFFEE IN BARCELONA
In recent years, the specialty coffee scene has been making itself known in Barcelona, one trendy café at a time. As we’ve mentioned before, Spanish coffee, in the classic torrefacto style, leaves something to be desired for those who didn’t grow up drinking this burnt, slightly sweet coffee. However, a number of coffee lovers and entrepreneurs have built up Barcelona’s specialty coffee scene, and a whole world of coffeehouse culture with it. Here are 7 of our favorite spots to get the best coffee in Barcelona, from charming, historic cafés to hip, fun coffee shops.
Nomad Coffee Lab & Shop
Nomad is one of the top names when talking about the best coffee in Barcelona, and for good reason. The dedicated baristas behind the bar are involved in every step, from roasting the beans to pouring out each cup of carefully crafted coffee. Nomad sources its beans from around the globe, bringing specialty coffee home to Barcelona. Additionally, Nomad offers workshops for other aspiring baristas to learn the tricks of the trade!

Hush Hush Café
Hush Hush is a cozy French café in the heart of El Born, one of Barcelona’s most historic neighborhoods. Coffee lovers will rejoice at the options they have at Hush Hush, as the standard Spanish café hasn’t caught on to the trends of oat milk or iced lattes yet. This café also has a tasty tapas menu, making it a delightful place to have brunch or a snack.
