There are a few places in the city of Barcelona, which are ideal for enjoying your breakfast in the cold November morning. They are all cozy, with relaxed atmosphere, fresh cakes and hot coffee which is a guarantee for the perfect start of the day. The first place to be mentioned here is the café Lilipep, which is all about coffee, tea, homemade cakes and books. The café is located in the area of El Borne, on the street Pou de la Cadena. The place is very cozy and is good to be visited in the morning, as well as in the afternoon. Two tips to be given here: the cheery cheese cake should be definitely tried, and in case you like a certain book, you can buy it.

 

Another place, which is ideal for breakfast in the city of Barcelona is Forn Mistral, where are offered the best croissants with chocolate in the city. The shop is located in El Raval district, on Ronda Sant Antoni Street and works every day except on Sundays. It sells small croissants, which are sold by their weight. There are also regular size croissants, as well as other delights and various kinds of bread. The shop also sells birthday cakes, which are delicious. Besides the shop, nearby there is a cafeteria where one can have the breakfast there, along with a cup of hot coffee or tea. The website of the place is here – http://www.fornmistral.com/

 

Those who love hot chocolate with cake will also appreciate the café La Pallaresa, which is placed in one of the narrow streets in the neighborhood El Barrio Gotico or the Gothic Quarter. The place works since 1940’s, serving croissants, toasts and sandwiches, and cups of rich and thick chocolate with a lot of cream. The place is ideal for a breakfast, but is also visited in the afternoons by those who are tired of sightseeing and shopping. It is closed on Sundays.

In case that you do not have enough time to sit and have a slow breakfast, then a good option is to try the snacks shop El Cocinero de Damasco, where you can see on a window display various delicious things you can point at and order. The atmosphere is warm and family-like and the food is very tasty. A must-try here are the humus wrap and the falafel. The place is situated in the Gothic district as well, and is some ten minutes away from the impressive Gothic Cathedral and less than that to the city hall. Note, however that the place is opening at 11h and that it does not work on Sundays.

The last nice place to be presented here is the Tossa place, which serves great tapas on its terrace, but also has a great inside area. The café serves fresh tapas like hams, salads, cheese, omelets, homemade croquetas filled with cheese, mushrooms, vegetables, etc. It is quiet place, away from the tourist crowds and has a very pleasant staff. The place is not open on Sundays.
