El Xampanyet Menu

El Xampanyet, nestled in the heart of Barcelona’s Ciutat Vella, is a vibrant tapas bar that delivers authentic Catalan flavors with a lively atmosphere. The menu is a celebration of traditional Spanish dishes, featuring standout items like tender octopus, crispy calamari, and the rich Butifarra del Perol sausage. Their steamed mussels and grilled squid cooked in its own ink showcase the freshness of local seafood. Not to be missed are the classic Spanish omelette and the comforting Garbanzos Con Tocino, which highlight rustic, home-style cooking. The bar’s selection of Husets Cava and vermouth perfectly complement each dish, enhancing the overall experience. El Xampanyet’s skillful use of simple, quality ingredients—salt, pepper, and olive oil—elevates each bite, leaving a lasting impression. Despite the popularity and occasional wait, the warm hospitality and the chance to share great food with locals make it a must-visit culinary gem in Barcelona.
