Would you imagine a typical country house in the middle of Barcelona’s Rambla? He opened a restaurant inspired by the classic farmhouses but with an urban touch. It is Cerveseria Canaletes, grill and drinks.
An excellent offer of traditional grilled cuisine that honors the smoky barbecues of Catalan restaurants in the countryside (and also in the city). Grilled cannelloni, butifarra sausage or grilled calçots are part of the menu.
And what better to accompany these delicacies with beer or wine in a porrón in a traditional atmosphere.
Cerveseria Canaletes: grill on fire
The grill is the strategy with which the restaurant intends to win back the local customers that La Rambla once lost. They seek to turn tradition into fashion through local food.
It is an excellent choice if you want to go out on the weekend to enjoy a classic Catalan Sunday with grilled delicacies.
An exquisite butifarrada with pa de pagés, tomato and all i oli. Then lamb, chicken, escalivada, like a typical Sunday in the mountains, but in the middle of the city.
They also offer side dishes such as macaroni au gratin, mongetes, grilled lettuce hearts or sautéed peppers.
And as for the prices, they are very similar to those of a farmhouse: they are closer to the countryside than those you can find in the most iconic street of Barcelona.
The urban farmhouse converted into a grill restaurant wants to win back the neighbors of the Catalan capital. And it is succeeding.
An urban farmhouse in the heart of the city center
It is a novelty if you want to enjoy a different place with good food in the heart of Barcelona. Catalan cuisine in all its splendor amidst ovens and grills.
The Cerveseria Canaletes was born as a tribute to the bar of the emblematic Canaletes bar, a large local that once housed the Canaletes bar.
In addition, the dishes are served on metal plates, very typical of country farmhouses. The atmosphere is cheerful amidst the vegetables, wine, beer and meats.
The menu is completely controlled by the embers. There is no fried food and the food is prepared with the best grilling techniques.
Different dishes and options will delight diners in a very different atmosphere in the middle of vibrant Barcelona.
Among the meats, the lamb brochette with beef tenderloin with cheese and caramelized onion stands out.
However, one of the “hits” of the farmhouse is the boneless chicken, marinated with herbs and then grilled.
Also the pork ribs with catalan barbecue sauce.
