Barcelona Tavern

The Art of Sharing

Perhaps the most important and defining aspect of a true Spanish tavern is the fact that everyone is invited to join the fun. All walks of life convene together in these unique establishments to enjoy good food, good company and good drinks. A restaurant where people create community over endless plates of perfectly prepared food and unfortgettable cocktails. A second home where regulars unwind, and no one is ever in a big hurry to leave – that is the essence of Barcelona Tavern.

It doesn’t matter at all where you’re going or where you’ve been – the tavern is a place where all are welcome. There is an authenticity to the environment – no pretense, no fuss – just real people, friendly service and creative, approachable, sensationally delicious food. Come in, sit down, relax, enjoy. That’s all there is to it.

We are a celebration of life. We are a place to create community; a place that’s about human connection and good vibes. We are fun, we are informal, we are professional, and we are absolutely unique. If you’re looking for a typical casual dining experience, walk down the street. If you’re looking for something different – a place where grassroots meets international, where guests are treated like family, where the food is truly inspired and the experience is 100% authentic – then you’re in the right place.

Welcome to Barcelona Tavern.

We’re certain you’ll be back.
