Vreneli
This café-bar is a cut above
the others in the lively, bohemian
Plaça del Sol. The atmosphere
buzzes, the conversation inspires
and the excellent coffee keeps on
coming.

Cafè Salambó
The cosy Plaça de Rius i Tau-
let boasts four café terraces to
choose from. Vreneli is the most
interesting one, with a mixture
of Mexican, Swiss and Spanish
fare. No alcohol is served.

Blues Cafè
Scrumptious sandwiches
and a tasty range of salads
are the draw at this beautiful,
wooden, trendy bar-cum-café.
There are pool tables upstairs.

C/Torrijos 51 • DA
The walls at this dusky, atmo-
spheric café-bar are plastered
with black-and-white photos of
John Lee Hooker and Leadbelly,
among others. The music, elec-
tric or acoustic, is always the
blues.

Tetería Jazmín
An aromatic café that serves
hundreds of different teas; the
most unusual is the mint tea
served with pine-kernels. Typical
Morrocan dishes (
tagines
and
couscous) are also available.

This is an ideal place to find
a young, friendly crowd and good
conversation. The only connec-
tion with the theatre here seems
to be the velvet curtains on the
sign over the door of this scruffy,
but busy, café.

La Cafetera
Of all the cafés on Plaça
de la Virreina, this one, with its
outdoor terrace and tiny patio
full of potted plants, is easily
the most pleasant for a quiet
and leisurely morning coffee
and a sandwich.

Aroma
This airy and spacious café,
with salmon walls and mirrors, is
an ideal spot for a quick coffee
away from the crowds. Service
is speedy and a touch more
formal than most places in Gràcia.

Sureny
It's always a pleasure to
smell the coffee being freshly
ground at this cream-walled and
wood-beamed café. Hundreds of
coffees to choose from, with
takeaway packets available.

Travessera de Gràcia 151 • DA
A sophisticated addition to
this square, Sureny is simple
but stylish, with a tantalizing
selection of tapas and plenty
of wines available by the glass.
