Experience Details

This Barcelona Gothic Quarter food tour takes you through the oldest part of the city, where Roman walls meet medieval architecture and traditional tapas share space with modern Spanish cuisine.


You will taste authentic dishes at family owned establishments, from vermouth with Iberian ham to creative interpretations that respect tradition while adding a contemporary touch. Your local guide shares the stories behind each bite, including the cultural influences that shaped regional cooking, why Spanish omelettes inspire strong opinions across the country, and what “hacer el vermut” truly means to locals.


Between stops, you will explore the historic Call (Jewish Quarter), walk past the remains of the Roman forum in Plaça Sant Jaume, and experience the vibrant streets that have kept this neighborhood at the heart of Barcelona for centuries.

What You’ll Experience

Placeta d'En Marcús (Pass By)

Hidden on a quiet corner of El Born, this peaceful 12th-century Romanesque square houses the ancient Capella d’en Marcús, a little sanctuary once linked to pilgrims and medieval postal riders.
1

Carrer dels Assaonadors

Warm, family-run restaurant where traditional Spanish cooking meets creative flair. Here you'll sample some of the following tastings: eggplant with honey, pork cheek, pork meatballs with cuttlefish, padrón peppers, cannelloni with pork sausage, or burrata cheese , along with a glass of vermouth.
40 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
2

Carrer dels Carders, 11

A charming, unpretentious tapas bar tucked in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, focused on seasonal, locally sourced cuisine. Rooted in tradition yet presented with a modern, creative twist. Sample a selection of dishes such as Jamón Ibérico, bread with tomato, seasonal vegetables, calamari with kimchi sauce, or grilled Iberian pork, served with red wine.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

El Born / La Ribera (Pass By)

While the focus of the tour is very much on the iconic Gothic Quarter, we often pass through a few corners of the other beautiful old parts of the Ciutat Vella (Old City): El Born and La Ribera.

Placa de Sant Jaume (Pass By)

We will pass through some gorgeous streets and plazas, such as Plaça Sant Jaume, the historic and political heart of Barcelona, where the Roman forum once was. Now home to Catalonia’s main institutions, it’s the perfect spot to discover local politics, flags, and the tradition of human towers, called castells.

Call de Barcelona (Pass By)

Historic Jewish Quarter, a labyrinth of narrow medieval alleys, ancient stone buildings, and hidden courtyards. Once the city’s Jewish heart, today it invites you to explore centuries of history and heritage.
3

Carrer de Salomó ben Adret

Finish with a tasting of a classic Catalan dessert: a fig ice cream, a crema catalana, or a chestnut pie, paired with fine Cava, a Spanish sparkling wine, in a charming wine cellar tucked into Barcelona’s historic Jewish Quarter.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Plaça de Sant Felip Neri (Pass By)

A hauntingly beautiful square in the Gothic Quarter with Baroque architecture and visible scars from Barcelona’s past, offering a quiet, reflective moment steeped in history.
