Overview

Step into Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter for a culinary journey blending centuries of history with the city’s most delicious traditions.

Wander through Roman ruins, medieval alleyways, and the Call (Jewish Quarter) as your local guide leads you to family-run tapas bars and modern eateries.

Taste a curated selection of regional specialties—melt-in-your-mouth pork cheek, authentic Jamón Ibérico, Padrón peppers, creative calamari with kimchi sauce, or classic Catalan desserts in a 14th-century wine cellar.

Each tasting stop reveals a chapter of Spain’s gastronomic heritage. Learn why Spanish omelettes divide opinions, what makes Iberian ham exceptional, and how “hacer el vermut” became a Sunday ritual.

This immersive food tour doesn’t just feed you—it gives stories and cultural insights that make every bite unforgettable.

The items mentioned are a selection of what we often feature. You’ll enjoy around 8 to 12 tastings (may vary depending on the day, season, and group preferences).

Activity itinerary

Plaza de Ramon Berenguer el Gran (Pass by)
We'll take you through Barcelona's famous Ciutat Vella (old city): past roman walls, alongside cathedrals, and through precious plazas.
Placeta d'En Marcús (Pass by)
Monday to Thursday - Hidden on a quiet corner of El Born, this peaceful 12th-century Romanesque square houses the ancient Capella d’en Marcús — a little sanctuary once linked to pilgrims and medieval postal riders.
Muralla Romana (Pass by)
Friday to Sunday - We will also pass by some of the remnants of the Roman city wall of Barcelona (Muralla Romana), constructed largely in the 3rd century to ward off and protect from invaders.
Carrer dels Assaonadors
  • 45m
Warm, family-run restaurant where traditional Spanish cooking meets creative flair. Here you'll sample some of the following tastings: Spanish omelette, eggplant with honey, pork cheek, cannelloni with pork sausage, burrata, or pork belly, along with a glass of vermouth.
El Born / La Ribera (Pass by)
Monday to Thursday - While the focus of the tour is very much on the iconic Gothic Quarter, we often pass through a few corners of the other beautiful old parts of the Ciutat Vella (Old City): El Born and La Ribera.
Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar (Pass by)
Friday to Sunday - We will pass many notable sites in the Gothic Quarter, including the "Catedral Del Mar", which was built between 1329 and 1383 and is an exceptional example of Catalan Gothic style.
Carrer dels Carders
  • 45m
Monday to Thursday - A charming, unpretentious tapas bar tucked in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Expect to taste a selection that will include some tastings like Jamón Ibérico, bread with tomato, seasonal tomato salad with tuna belly, calamari with kimchi sauce, grilled Iberian pork, croquettes, or other local favorites, paired with a Catalan red wine.
Carrer d'en Gignàs
  • 45m
Friday to Sunday - A cozy, old-school cellar bar with character in the heart of Barcelona, where you'll try some vermouth and some tastings of Iberian ham, fried anchovies, juicy meatballs, garlicky mushrooms al ajillo, or salty, blistered Padrón peppers.
Placa de Sant Jaume (Pass by)
We will pass through some gorgeous streets and plazas, such as the Plaça de Sant Jaume or the Plaça Sant Just.
Call de Barcelona (Pass by)
Historic Jewish Quarter — a labyrinth of narrow medieval alleys, ancient stone buildings, and hidden courtyards. Once the city’s Jewish heart, today it invites you to explore centuries of history and heritage.
Carrer de Salomó ben Adret
  • 30m
Finish with a tasting of a classic Catalan dessert: a fig ice cream, a crema catalana, or a chestnut pie, paired with fine Cava, a Spanish sparkling wine, in a charming wine cellar tucked into Barcelona’s historic Jewish Quarter.
Plaça de Sant Felip Neri (Pass by)
A hauntingly beautiful square in the Gothic Quarter with Baroque architecture and visible scars from Barcelona’s past, offering a quiet, reflective moment steeped in history.
