Outdoor dining, with stunning views over the old port of Barcelona.

El Chipiron, worth visiting already just because of its fantastic location. This restaurant is located near shopping centre Maremagnum at the port of Barcelona and looks straight out on the water. Especially when the lights are on at night is this exceptionally beautiful.
 

It is possible to sit inside and enjoy the view, but the real enthusiast will still take a seat outside. You don´t have to be afraid of the cold because the tables are equipped with heating stoves, which also adds to the atmosphere.
 

The restaurant is well known for its seafood, which they prepared very professionally, so it is not a big surprise that there is an rich assortment of seafood and paella to be found on the menu. It is also possible, if you want to relive the moment, to take food home with you from the restaurant. You don’t have to worry if you are not a real fish enthusiast, Chipiron also offers great half chickens or steaks with potatoes. Definitely something worth trying!
 

The service itself is friendly and helpful. Outside you'll get a warm welcome and you will be guided to a table, you don't even have to have a reservation. You don't speak Spanish? No problem! It might take a little bit longer, but the staff will try their best to give you the best service possible.
 

Sunny terraces by the sea, private rooms and cozy corners, make El Chipiron a great place to relax and enjoy great food.

 Tea Shop in Gracia

Where there's tea there's hope.
Arthur W. Pinero

Sometimes people can be categorized for their preferences: dogs or cats owners, hot or cold destinations for holidays, burger addicted or vegetarian and so on…

Another big difference, especially at breakfast or snack time, is among the admirers of tea and coffee. To any of the two groups you belong, I'm sure that this little shop in the heart of Gracia, Barcelona, will win you over: BLN La Casa Del Tè.

In this cozy and decorated shop, Belén, the owner, has selected a wide variety of teas, infusions and coffee: Tai Mahal, black tea, cinammon tea, earlgrey, touareg tea, mate and much more products.

In addictions, you can complete your break by choosing cups, teapots and everything you need to accompany your tea.

The magician of Catalan Modernism all around you

Eixample is a Catalan word meaning extension: in the middle of the 19^th century Barcelona’s population slowly burst the medieval walls that surrounded the city and the engineer Idelfonso Cerdà planned the construction of this new district Eixample which began in 1860.

Still today you can see the linear pattern that occupies 9km2,  a grid of straight and perpendicular streets, so different with respect to other more distinctly medieval areas immediately bordering. Eixample is the core of Catalan Modernism.

It's the most elegant area in town, a fashioniable centre of Barcelona, lying on both sides of the Passeig de Gracia, with its famous Gaudí houses and top brand shops.

Casp Apartment in Barcelona is located in the heart of the Eixample district: beautifully designed, it offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and all the amenities for a pleasant stay.

Casp Apartment can sleep up to 6 people so is a very good option for families and groups of friends who want to share together the fun of discovering Barcelona, not simply as a tourist.
