Trendy yet true to its Spanish heritage
In the heart of Barcelona’s old town, Bar Pimentel has become a magnet for a new generation of food lovers – open-minded, fun-spirited, and serious about flavor. There’s an easy charm to the place: casual but considered, vibrant yet unpretentious. Chef Maikol Román serves a modern take on Spanish comfort food, guided by what’s freshest and closest at hand. Ingredients are hyper-local, cooking is precise, and the result is quietly confident. The wine list leans natural, with bottles from small-scale, low-intervention producers – thoughtfully selected and fairly priced. A neighborhood bar with something deeper behind the buzz.
