Specialty Coffee in El Born, Barcelona
A guide for specialty coffee adepts
About this guide
I teach yoga in the morning. After a class I like to stop for a cup at one of the coffee shops in the city center. I can’t say I am a coffee maniac, but I am ready to pay a little extra for the flavors that the specialty coffee provides. I also feel better knowing that the coffee I drink was grown using environmentally friendly practices. I have made a list of some of the best specialty places in El Born. They will delight you with great coffee and delicious quick bites.

🥐 Coffee and croissantSimone
This small takeaway shop sells great coffee sourced from Nomad, one of the best specialty coffee suppliers in town. Surprisingly, it is one of the few coffee shops in El Born, which opens before 9 am. They open at 8 am, so head here if you need your morning coffee fix pronto. Their pastry is delicious. Plus, it is important that they always have some gluten-free and vegan options. My personal favorite combo is a cappuccino sprinkled with chocolate and cinnamon (the best) and a pistachio croissant. I also like it for the fun community around it. I almost always meet someone interesting whenever I stop by.
