Food Guide - Dining Out in Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona offers a huge variety of restaurants offering all types of food, not just from Barcelona or Spain. For Spanish cuisine, there are some excellent although expensive restaurants along Diagonal and on Ramblas de Catalunya. Cheaper eateries can be found in the side streets, or in the Gothic area. For Asian food, visitors should head for Gracia where there is a good selection of Indian, Chinese, Lebanese and restaurants of other nationalties on Calle Verdi and on Placa del Sol.

Lunch is usually served from 2pm until 3.30pm, and most restaurants offer a fixed price menu with a starter and main course, as well as the standard menu. The average price for a fixed menu ranges from €7.50 to €15, depending on the restaurant. An average restaurant bill including wine should be around €20 to €30 per person. Tipping is expected but normally the 7% IVA charge is included in the bill, so tips are usually no more than a euro or two at most.
