Some nights you just want beer, chocolate, and churros--DO NOT JUDGE ME.
We lost a day of our trip and had to do all of Barcelona in ONE FREAKING DAY. It can be done but you hit the ground at 9 a.m., jet-lag be damned, and you do not stop until Barcelona does. BTW, Barcelona stops at about 5 a.m. the next day. Close to midnight, you need a snack.
Meson del Cafe delivers with cold Spanish beer, cups of thick hot chocolate (not Swiss Miss), and warm churros covered with sugar and cinnamon. I cannot speak to the dinner menu, but I was damn happy with my order.
Service was fantastic. They were busy and they were still gracious, like I was a guest in their home. And the location is perfect, smack dab in the middle of the Gothic District. Place is super cozy and very pretty. We relaxed and enjoyed an hour break and then jumped back into the nightlife!
This was one of the first places we stopped to eat at while we were in Barcelona. We had a beer and chorizo bocadillo. It was absolutely delicious! The bread was perfect, nice crunch on the outside and soft inside. The chorizo was nothing like we've had here in the USA, full of flavor and the right amount to hold us over until our next stop. We followed our meal and drinks up with some coffee, small but powerful! I believe we paid less than ten euros for everything.
It's a small place, been there for decades and exactly what we were looking for. We were trying to avoid the tourist places and stick to the local authentic spots.
Can't beat 2 delicious bocadillo's (Spanish panini type sandwich), two beers, and a nice coffee for less than 10 euros! We had the Spanish chorizo bocadillo. We're used to the Mexican chorizo, this was more like a chorizo flavored pepperoni or something. Delicious!
