Artisa Barcelona

Came here for breakfast on a Wednesday. Had the latte which was more like milkshake than anything. Coffee was not strong. Turkey with olive paste panini was served cold. It was dry and not fresh. Also had the chicken crêpe where the crêpe was very thick and chewy. Tried the churros with chocolate and it was not soft and fresh. Won’t be returning again.

Love the place, great service and for me it was great for breakfast. The best coffee and croissant that I have ever had.

Waited 20 minutes for two coffees and then left cause we were tired of waiting. The two girls serving there seem to be way too busy talking and dropping plates rather than serving customers. McDonalds has better service than that

I should have followed the wise saying, «stay away from the tourist areas». But my craving for churros and thick hot chocolate overcame my usual cautions. The staff was friendly and the place was quaint but the hot chocolate and churros were awful. The hot chocolate was very thin and had a slight chocolate taste to it, first disappointment. The churros were cold pre-​made oily mushy things, they should not even be served. I’m very disappointed that I got my hopes so high. At least it was only a waste of 4 €. If hot chocolate is what you want, keep looking.

Artisa coffee shop locates in the center of Barcelona, near La Rambla. I was attracted by its cute artsy decoration and fresh oranges — and plus the thirst for a sweet coffee.
The shop is small but has enough space for you to sit and enjoy a small meal or coffee! I’ve stopped by this coffee shop two times in a week, and it’s always full of people — I guess we all love free wifi and good pastry and coffee (The combo is just nice, isn’t it ?)
The services were initially friendly and fast. English was also acceptable here! (We had not problem to communicate).
All in all, this is just a real cute coffee shop for a quick break and rest your tiring legs from all the shopping, walking and wondering in this amazing city.
Highlight :
Free wifi
Hot coffee
Great pastry
Clean restroom

Nice place for fresh, warm churros to go to eat at the fountain on Placa Real. Superb stop while sight seeing.

ya know, I was expecting a little more coming here after seeing all of the 5-​star reviews.
my husband & I came here to try some gelato– I had the pistachio (quite tasty) while he had the Catalan (he enjoyed it). not much seating space and the place was filled with tourists (which was fine by me– just made it difficult to find a place to sit).
I don’t know what it was that we should have done differently in order to have a better experience. maybe we should have tried a different dessert? the servers were friendly but nothing out of the norm for Barcelona.
they did have a cool little gift shop downstairs that was fun to look at– definitely a good place to get souvenirs for friends + family back at home.
don’t think I would try again, but I am probably off, seeing as everyone else highly enjoys this place.

Wow! How did I not know that Unilocal was available in countries other than the US?
Artisa was one of my wife and I’s favorite places while visiting Barcelona on our honeymoon. We stopped in several times for coffee and pastries. We loved it so much so that I actually made a mason jar chandelier similar to those in their shop for our own kitchen.
The staff was always helpful and cheery. When I hear of friends going to Barcelona I always tell them to stop by Artisa!

My family and I stopped here for baked treats and ice cream and were not disappointed. It’s a small place with a lovely atmosphere, worth a try if you are looking for something quick and delicious. Plus it’s located right off Las Ramblas and Placa Reial so it’s right on the main tourist path.

Churros, ice cream, sweets and drinks! This place has it all. This place is located by las rambles and the gothic quarter and the service is great with great food options. We wanted to get churros con chocolate before we left Spain. The churros are heated up and serviced with a rich cup of hot chocolate and taste really good.
I also got a scoop of gelato which was über creamy. Lots of flavors to choose from. Good friendly service and the servers speak English pretty well. This place is really cute

Came specifically for the churros and chocolate because of Unilocal reviews and while the ambiance is great, the location awesome, and the food delightful, it was all ruined by the server who was extremely RUDE.

In Barcelona am Strand eine Eisdiele zu finden ist gar nicht mal so leicht, also haben wir uns auf dem Web zu den Las Ramblas gemacht und auf einmal fiel uns der Laden in einer Seitenstraße zu einem größeren Platz auf.
Das Café/​Eisdiele ist sehr gemütlich und setzt auf handgemachte Produkte. Wir haben nur das Eis probiert, jeder direkt 2 Kugeln. Es war viel und es war TOP. Leckeres Eis und ein toller Laden.
Wenn wir mal wieder auf den Las Ramblas in Barcelona verweilen, dann kommen wir auf jeden Fall wieder hier vorbei!

Another tourist trap on las ramblas. Churros con chocolate were below mediocre. The dipping chocolate was Tasteless and tasted like something from a mix? The churros were SOGGY and droopy with oil, and not sweet. They aren’t fried to order, they’re heated up and you can tell they’re not fresh.
I did not try anything else so I won’t give it 1 star but don’t come here for churros if you like yourself

Bakery right by the cathedral — had the churros and chocolate which was delicious! they have a ton of things which looked appetizing but one can only eat so much
the churros were not fresh or else id give them 4 stars

Auf der Suche nach Churros fanden wir diesen Laden leider wurde die Bestellung nicht ausgeführt und wir gingen wieder.

Gelato explosion! Creamy, sweetened, soft gelato — starts at 2.80 euros for a scoop on a long cone (or cup if you prefer… but why??) Note this place is only slightly pricier than other gelato shops (I’ve seen 2 to 2.50 euros at most other places) but the location (right off Las Ramblas) is great. Plus, the gelato tasted amazing!
Will come back here if I’m in the area to try their churros next!

Nettes, kleines ‘Café’ das Wert auf Nachhaltigkeit legt. Sehr geschmackvoll und gemütlich eingerichtet, perfekter Ort, um dem Treiben auf der Rambla für einen Moment zu entfliehen. Man kann hier regionale Produkte kaufen, etwas trinken, Frückstücken/​Snacken oder Eis essen. Für mich gab es die typischen Xurros mit Kakao für 4 €. Auch wenn die Xurros aus der Packung kamen und lediglich erwärmt wurden tat dies geschmacklich kein Abbruch. WIFI ist verfügbar, die Servicekräfte sind freundlich, nett und zuvorkommend. Lecker, nette Atmosphäre und preislich für den «Nachhaltigkeits» Gedanken alles im grünen Bereich. Hier komme ich gerne wieder.

We came here the day after New Years 2015 because we were craving churros, and Xurreria had been closed for the past of couple nights during our stay in Barcelona. I had bookmarked this place within walking distance from Xurreria, and hooray, we finally found our fix at Artisa! For 4 euro, we got 4 churros and a cup of chocolate. We watched the barista make the chocolate from scratch using coco and milk. The churros were freshly made and served piping hot with crystalline sugar sprinkled on top. Needless to say, I was one happy camper as I walked out of Artisa and enjoyed my treat in the open plaza outside!

Si vous souhaitez une ambiance conviviale sans chichis + des produits frais et une bonne crêpe chaude mn. Courrez y. Nous avons adoré. Staff très souriante. C top.

I will admit my heart sunk a little when I ordered churros y chocolate and some pre-​made churros were taken out of a tupperware container and re-​toasted. Why weren’t they fried to order?! I was so looking forward to hot, sizzling churros with soft granules of sugar sprinkled throughout, but this was not the place where that would be happening.
I digress.
Even though the churros were pre-​made, they were hot and crispy and the perfect vehicle in which to dip in thick, rich, hot chocolate. The hot chocolate saved this place and has by far been my favorite hot chocolate in Madrid and Barcelona!

Tiny tiny place with cute with some options gastronomic gift options — wine based vinegars, saffron, etc. They serve gelato, churros with chocolate, espressos, etc. All really good stuff. It’s by the plaza so you can take it to go or eat inside if there is a seat.

Chocolate con churros is the way to go. This brightly lit cleanly store has English-​speaking employees and is a comfortable stop for tourists wanting something sweet to eat, restroom, and a place to sit indoors.

Entramos a este local a tomar algo por casialidad, buscando algo dulce…
El local es precioso, todo los productos son naturales y al ver que había carrot cake, no me pude resistir… Y tras probar carrot cake allà donde veo, puedo decir que es de los mejores que he probado nunca!!!
Positivo: el sabor, los peoductos, el local…
Negativo: falta aire acondicionado…
Para volver!!!

Among a lot of mediocre or very expensive restaurants on the Ramblas, is this beautiful space, that looks like you’ve walked into someones kitchen or cottage. Along the right wall are gourmet food products found in different parts of Spain, but that’s not what’s exciting about it.
They have sweet and savoury crepes, along with pastries and fancy coffees. We had a chocolate crêpe with banana, and she used real chocolate chips (not nutella, even though you could do that).
There are also a whole bunch of gelato to choose from! Yum, pistachio.
They were super friendly!

De bons produits, des formules petits dej sympa… prix corrects (car produits de qualité). Endroit joliment décoré: j’ai beaucoup aimé leurs lampes!

It’s hard to ruin gelato and there’s lots of places to get it in Barcelona. So why seek out Artisa?
In a word: Location. Between the chaos of the Ramblas and the crowds of Placa Reial, there is a quiet alleyway. And in that alleyway there is gelato at Artisa.
It’s a great place to catch your breath, decide next plans, and generally chill out.

Este rinconcito de placer al lado de plaza real és muy recomendable tanto para hacer un pequeño bocado dicen «saludable» que yo diría de una calidad excelente y sin aditivos extraños sin definir, sabores delicatessen o bien un helado para llevar delicioso, con sabor auténtico y sin colorantes ni conservantes, que no es pedir mucho pero hoy en día es ardua tarea.

Desde hace unos años empecé a interesarme por la cocina. Desde que dejé de trabajar en restaurantes, tuve que aprender a cocinarme yo mismo. Y comer hamburguesas o hot dogs todos los días no se puede. Claro que los materiales se van repitiendo luego de un tiempo, y la imperiosa necesidad por variar los sabores se hace patente.
En esta búsqueda estaba cuando llegué a esta tienda de delicatessen que cuenta con una de las más variadas colecciones de aceites y vinagres del sector.
Aceites con trufas negras; blancas; hierbas provenzales; tomillo y albahaca, son sólo algunas de las exquisiteces que probaría a partir de ese día.
Ahora ya puedo invitar a mis suegros a comer.
