El Xampanyet

Tapas Bars, Born-Ribera


Fodor's Review:

Just down the street from the Picasso Museum, hanging botas (leather wineskins) announce one of Barcelona's liveliest and prettiest xampanyerias (champagne bars), usually stuffed to the gills with a rollicking mob of local and out-of-town celebrants. The oversweet house sparkling wine (to be avoided) and pa amb tomaquet (toasted bread with squeezed tomato and olive oil) are served on marble-top tables near walls decorated with azulejos (glazed tiles).
