Barcelona: The Locals' Tapas Edit

Everyone has a Barcelona tapas opinion. Most of them are wrong. This isn't a list of patatas bravas on La Rambla or €18 jamón boards in the Gothic Quarter. It's where locals actually eat, the standing-room-only bars where the anchovies are brined in-house, the old bodegas where the wine comes from an unmarked jug, the Eixample spots where a Michelin star hides behind a paper menu. Ten places. All different. All worth your time. Ten spots across Barcelona: El Born, Poble Sec, Eixample and the Gothic Quarter.. so wherever you’re based, a proper tapas bar is never far.
