Can paixano, C/ de la Reina Christina, 7
Don’t expect a white table-clothed, candle-lit romantic restaurant, nor a penguin-dressed waiter ready for you hand and foot. Don’t expect a table at all. This place is busy, loud and simply spectacular. The atmosphere is one of their selling points. The place is always busy, but the service is faultless. This is a favourite amongst locals and tourists alike. The menu covers half the wall, listing a fantastic variation of Catalan meats and cheeses served on either a plate to share, or in a sandwich, all under 5€. Don’t forget to buy yourself a bottle of their cava, after all, you are in La Xampanyeria.
Their famous veggie burgers are not to be missed, and at 6.50€ a pop, you have yourself one hell of a deal. They also have a Plato del día at 8,50€, which is a big hit. This little bar-restaurant is located on the edge of El Born and is always busy. They are also big fans of their beers: the drinks menu has an array of Catalan craft beers and are huge supporters of the punky Scottish Brew Dog.
Nice Spice, C/ Pujades 207
If you are enjoying a leisurely stroll through the streets of Poble Nou, make sure and stop for lunch at this Indo-Pakistani restaurant for a lunchtime menu. There are two Menu Del Días to choose from, both priced at 9,50€. Their most popular dish is the chicken tikka massala, but overall this restaurant serves up top quality dishes. You can wash it down with a traditional Indian Kashmir or milkshake.
Khan Kaffrun, c/Torrent De Les Flors, 39
If you enjoy quality traditional Lebanese cuisine, this is definitely the place to go. Khan Kaffrun deserves way more credit than it has. The service is impeccable, the menu has everything you would expect and it is a steal: the platos combinados are priced at 9€ a dish while the platos Khan Kaffrun are between 6 and 7€. The portions aren’t huge, however you will be pleasantly satisfied.
