The Catalan capital serves amazing churros – delicious strips of fried dough sprinkled with sugar which are then dipped in hot chocolate. Barcelona is home to dozens of churrerías: discover our guide to the best places to try this delicious snack.
Churrería Laietana
Churrería Laietana is located just a short stroll from Barcelona landmarks such as the Barcelona Cathedral and the Palau de la Musica Catalana. The 15-seat churrería is known for its freshly made churros.
Churrería Granja Ruz
Cafe, Spanish
The churros at Granja Ruz are crispy outside and soft inside, and the shop is warm all over. There are just five seats at this small churrería:enjoy its churros while resting after a long stroll around Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter or a viewing at the Picasso Museum. Takeout is also an option if you want to spend the morning strolling down La Rambla.
Granja M. Viader
This churrería has been around longer than the Sagrada Familia. Ever since then, Granja M. Viader has expanded its menu from variations of churros con chocolate to boxed chocolates, dairy, and even meat. In the morning, the Granja serves breakfast and lunch; after the siesta break, the legendary crispy churros and rich chocolate are served.
Comaxurros
The atmosphere at Comaxurros feels fresh, warm, and classic, like a Wes Anderson movie. The same can be said about their crispy sugar-glazed churros and sweet and creamy hot chocolate, both of which are freshly made after the order. Eating with various toppings is a privilege that only this churrería offers.
Xurreria Sagrada Familia
Perhaps a perfect view of the Sagrada Familia can only best be paired with churros and hot chocolate. Xurreria Sagrada Familia offers just that with only four seats inside and a dozen outside. This is the perfect Barcelona churro experience for those staying for only a few days in the city.
Xurreria Trebol
The best churrería for take out, Xurreria Trebol displays all of its churros varieties and prepares them as soon as the order is made. Indoor seating is limited though, with only four seats.
La Xocolateria by Oriol Balaguer
Cafe, Spanish, Coffee
Owned and managed by the Catalan chef and chocolatier himself, La Xocolateria by Oriol Balaguer is an exquisite experience from entrance to exit. Even before eating, the cafe impresses with its wood and ivory interiors, and the variety of desserts on display. This setting is only matched by the churros and hot chocolate, which prove that Balaguer is one of the finest confectioners in the world.
