Vegan food: Trencadís, a restaurant in the center of Barcelona
Trencadís offers tasty, balanced food at a great price. During the week, they offer a set lunch menu for 12 euros including a main course, dessert and drink.
- It’s a very innovative concept, as they experiment with Indian and Mediterranean cooking.
- They also have a second, more classical menu (including meat and fish) so you can go there with your carnivorous friends too!!
My favourite dish is the burger. They always offer a quinoa burger as a main course along with various vegetables (the one with mushroom is exquisite!).
- It’s located just 5 minutes walk from Casa Batlló, and the value for money for this location is unbeatable!
¿Where? Pau Claris, 143 (Eixample dret)
¿When? Monday to Saturday 12pm to 11pm
¿How much? Around 12 euros for the lunchtime weekday set menu
Vegan food: VegetArt, take away food for a great price
Do you prefer to get your food to take away and enjoy it in one of your favourite parts of the city? Well, here is a delicious vegan option even for the smallest budgets!
VegetArt is outside the city center, but it could be the perfect stop before or after a visit to Parc Güell (or you can organise your own picnic there), as it’s just 15 minutes’ walk from the park.
- If you’re half the hummus fan that I am, I recommend you try VegetArt’s hummus with your eyes closed. They make it fresh every day, and it’s delicious!
- The tortilla and the hamburger were also very good, and I was very positively surprised by both, one for its distinctive strong taste and the other for its perfect combination of flavors.
- Furthermore, the location of VegetArt gives you the perfect excuse to discover a truly authentic atmosphere, as in this article we recommend a walk starting from Parc Guell, and it’s a great way to get to know another side of the city!
And the best part is the price, with dishes costing between €1 and €4. What are you waiting for?

You’re suddenly starving and you need something quick to eat. Whether you want to take something away or you prefer to sit down to eat, at La Trocadero you’re sure to find what you’re looking for!
It’s a burger joint that’s also vegan, and in case you’re wondering how they can make a whole vegan burger menu, don’t worry, there is plenty to choose from! And as well as a range of burgers you can also try one of their delicious vegan hot dogs, or one of the many salads on offer.
- There’s a set menu that includes fries and a drink for just 8 euros!
The best part? It’s located just a few meters from the Sagrada Familia! So there’s no excuse. Off you head before or after your meal to visit the best known work of the most famous Catalan architect!
