Bar Fidel Barcelona

Best bocatas in town!

Gina from Barcelona

""Bar Fidel" in Barcelona isn't just a regular Spanish bar - come here to discover the best bocatas (sandwiches) in the city - they have over 60 types!"

Probably no tourist would ever enter Bar Fidel, unless a local would have recommended it! From the outside it looks like a regular Spanish bar with beer and some tapas. However, if you leave appearances aside, you will discover the best bocatas (sandwiches) of all Barcelona.

Every time I go, I promise myself I will try a new option among the 60 different sandwiches they have on the menu. However, I cannot help it: if I am at Bar Fidel, I always have to have the Trifasic, which has chicken, duck paté and camembert cheese. If you like onion, you can have Quadrophenia, which is Trifàsic plus onion. Usually, I combine the sandwich with their patatas bravas or another of their starters.

It is always full, so be patient, because I guarantee that it will be worth it. I will just end by saying that I have been hesitating to publish this article, so that Bar Fidel does not get even more visitors... I hope you will keep the secret between us!

Barcelona Spotter Gina

About me Hi! I’m Gina! Even though I am from Girona, a small city close to Barcelona, I have lived in the Catalan capital for some years now. Before that, I did a degree in Communication and a Master's in Tourism Management around different cities in Europe. Living abroad for a while made me appreciate tips from locals to get to know the destination in a way that doesn’t appear on travel guides. I work in higher education with international students and I combine this with my passions that include food, photography and traveling. Why Barcelona ...
