About LA PAPA

LA PAPA makes our list for the best specialty coffee in Barcelona.

Here’s why…

If you’ve ever walked up Carrer de Pau Claris on a weekend it’s hard to miss the crowds outside La Papa. And for good reason…this is a must visit for brunch and coffee lovers.

The modernized space makes the best of its Eixample location with a minimal design and street side terrace. The homemade cakes and pastries look even prettier against the soft pastel colors inside.

On our visit we avoided the queue and opted for the espresso bar. Special mention to the barista here who created 2 beautiful cortados (espresso shot with foamed milk) and chatted to us about their use of local roasters.

We definitely feel like we missed out as the food options looked delicious and we could see everyone enjoying it a lot. We’ll save the brunch experience for another trip.

We really enjoyed watching the barista serving the customers at the espresso bar and seeing first hand the skill and enjoyment he was getting from making coffee. There was a decent queue when we arrived and we’re sure this place is just as famous for it’s brunch as the coffee. The brunch menu was stacked with everything from overnight oats to delicious toasts and sandwiches.
