Tapas Bar In Barcelona: Deal of the Century

Every Thursday after work you can come by Cafè Milans, have a beer and eat as many tapas as you possibly can for only 3€! You will enjoy the classic tapas in Barcelona like pan-con-tomate and their delicious tortilla, as well as some other slightly higher priced tapas like those made with capers, or the sweeter ones. Chorizo and salami might not be the best that you can find in Barcelona, but still, they are tasty! Do not hesitate to help yourself, the owners will refill the plates and bring new tapas throughout the evening… You can of course also order off the menu (not included in the 3€), but the kitchen closes at 11pm.

~ The Unavoidable: Sant Joseph Market - La Boqueria

Where: Ciutat Vella Las Ramblas, 91 08002 Barcelona When: From Mondays to Saturdays Opening hours: 8:00 am to 8:30 pm Features: La Boqueria is the most famous market in Barcelona because of its amazing location in the center of Las Ramblas! It's one of the largest markets in Europe and offers high quality products, fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, sweets, etc. You can even eat tapas here! There is quite a lot of tourist traffic but it's still a great place to visit. This market is a total mix of everything. As you get deeper into the market, you get wafts of people cooking fresh meats, pastas, and fish for the people on siesta or the tourists who happen to stumble upon the market. The vibrant colours make you want to buy absolutely everything because it all just looks so delicious! Traces of La Boqueria can be dated back as far as 1217, when local butchers set up stalls selling their meats. Since then, La Boqeria has grown into a Market of not just meats, but also fruits, fish, candies, vegetables, nuts, and much more.

There are parts of Sant Antoni that are outside, which is why I would put this on the list of Best markets in Barcelona that are a must see. Sant Antoni is more a place where locals can be found shopping around less of a touristic location. In the very center of Sant Antoni you will find a very popular tapas bar that many locals like to frequent on their siesta. Much like La Boqueria, the vibrant colors of all the fresh meats and fruits draws you in to buy much more than you had originally planned.

There are as well many everyday items that can be found at Encants for a cheaper price than in regular stores. Bargaining is a huge thing at Encants and if you don't bargain you will most likely be ripped off. Bargaining can be fun, after all the goal is get as much as you can for the least amount of money, right?

The public auctions attract many tourists and locals alike and is their largest attraction at Encants.
