Hidden pearl in the middle of Raval with a local feeling to it. Calm and cosy but with a lot of personality.

If I had to choose one singular and authentic bar in Barcelona, I'll say "Mendizábal". This is not a fancy bar, and that's what I love of Mendizábal. But it doesn't mean it isn't a cute one with a beautiful decoration and good prices. They have a two very differentiated spaces: one privileged terrace in the city center, and the interior salon. Them both are awesome, and it's perfect because you can decide which one fits better with the situation. They do tapas, sandwich, juices, burgers and veggi burgers. In my opinion, they have the best vegetarian sandwich offer in town. But the most important, you can leave the bar without eating their "patatas bravas"

Casa Protea is a plant collectors studio based in Barcelona. A gathering place for plant lovers run by Jesús and Pancho.

It’s a plant concept store that’s also a cafeteria, art gallery, and venue for all types of events, photo shoots, publicity sessions, or workshops.

This is the perfect place to read a book while you enjoy a good coffee and a tasty and organic piece of cake. They also do a delicious brunch.
