Cafes and bars: There are bars to cater for
all needs and tastes, whether they be regular bars, tapas
bars, late bars, gay bars, and wine bars, just to name a few.
Xampanyerías or champagne bars are very popular
among those enjoying cava, the Catalan champagne. Cafés
and bars provide good eating for moderate prices. Other interesting
places for the budget oriented traveler include cerveseries/cervezerias
(beer bars), tavernes/tabernas (taverns), tasques/tascas
(snack bars) and cellers/bodegas (cellars).
Tapas bars or tascas: Instead of eating in
a traditional restaurant or cafeteria and having a full meal,
something different would be to have a succession of tapas
(small snacks) or raciones (larger snacks) at a series of
bars. This is referred to as bar crawling and is a very fun
and interesting alternative. It's a great way to meet new
people and sample the local specialties.
Sit-down Restaurants:Menjadores,
menjarias or comedores are cheap eating
establishments generally found at the back of bars. Typically
in working class environments, portions are usually generous
and very affordable. A meson also usually refers
to a modest eatery while establishments of higher category
simple call themselves restaurant/restaurant. Restaurants
specializing in fish and seafood are referred to as marisquerias.
The most exclusive restaurants are “five fork”
restaurants. For international cuisine, look for the ethnic
restaurants on Calle Verdi Park.
