What do you mean you don’t have Oatley?
But first, coffee. Sitting outside a Barcelona cafe with the sun beating down, watching the world go by is what dreamy mornings are made of – but it can all be ruined by a mediocre cup. These top spots in Barcelona offer some of the best cups in the city, as well as delectable pastries and cakes with friendly neighborhood service. Whether you’re looking for your morning kick, or just an afternoon pick me up, we recommend swinging by any of these for your next triple shot latte.
Roast Club Cafe
What this place lacks in size it makes up for in friendly service, charming atmosphere and phenomenal coffee. With only half a dozen tables it can get busy, but the relaxed Eixample vibes and friendly no rush style keeps everything on point. They make incredible coffee with all the alternative milk choices you crave, but also excel with sandwiches, salads and cakes from scratch, which are definitely worth taking a seat for.

Caravelle
Not only is this a good spot in the mornings for some carefully crafted coffee with milk from a local farm, they also serve delicious seasonal, freshly cooked food all day long. From healthy to slightly more indulgent, but always divine, you’ll find muesli, berries and eggs for brunch to tacos, salads, sandwiches and burgers throughout the day. Caravelle will definitely have you returning to this coffee carousel.

Hidden Café BCN
It’s not quite as hidden as the name may suggest, but that just make it easier to try some of their top notch coffee, or discover their matcha menu. Yes, a dedicated menu. This spot is a must for matcha and coffee lovers alike, and if you make it here you’ll also be able to enjoy the expertise from the baristas and a perfect perch for people watching.
