Eating like a local at Barcelona beaches and beyond

Summer is always present in Barcelona, and its best expression is the “xiringuitos”, one of the best places to be for foodies who want to eat like a local by the Mediterranean sea, during the day or at night, just wanting to feel the sand under their toes while having a romantic dinner. The ¨xiringuito¨ meaning in Spanish refers to a restaurant or a tapas bar which simply by the beach. On this blog post, we share our favorites places to eat in Barcelona beaches and beyond.

XIRINGUITO ESCRIBA This is by far the best of the best restaurant (xiringuito) that you can find at Barcelona beach. Their arroces (rice, the local version for paella) and renowned desserts are unbeatable, and we really like the relaxed and informal ambiance that allows you to experience high-quality food by the sea. They are also the local famous pastry specialists from Barcelona and Paris.

This is the restaurant that has been feeding the bellies of Catalans in Barcelona since 1950 and the one that gives that Mediterranean flavor through fresh and delicious tapas and a superb elaboration of arroces (rice, the local version of paella).
