With over one hundred years of history, Els Pescadors was born as a fishermen’s tavern to become one of the oldest and most prestigious restaurants, not only in Poblenou but also in Barcelona, specializing in fish and rice dishes.
The old dining room at the entrance, with the old bar and the marble tables, is a true witness of the establishment’s past, while the other two dining rooms prove that tradition and modernity are compatible.
The menu -prepared with fresh and well-selected products of impeccable quality -, is on the one hand, faithful to the purest tradition, but it has adapted to the new cooking techniques and also offers more contemporary dishes. The house’s specialties are definitely the fresh fish brought daily from the market and the rice dishes.
Under the shadow of the old trees of the peaceful Plaça Prim, the restaurant's terrace is also a great option during the spring and summer season.
We believe that " Els Pescadors" is one of the finest fish restaurants in Barcelona. Located quite far from the center, in Poble Nou, it's worth go there.
First for the place on a little square with trees, very pleasant. Then for the dishes, mostly fishes, every plate is a delight try: calamares, gambas, arroz, Suquet dels pescadors, Angler fish fricandó, Tuna with pickled Figueres onions, Hake with romesco bread and leek mousseline sauce...
A great contemporary cooking.. Perfect to invite your best friends.
A kilometer northeast of the Olympic Port in the interesting Sant Martí neighborhood, this handsome late-19th-century bistro-style dining room has a lovely terrace on a little square shaded by immense ficus trees. Kids can play safely in the traffic-free square while their parents concentrate on well-prepared seafood specialties such as paella, fresh fish, or fideuá (paella made with noodles).
This is acknowledged to be one of the best fish restaurants in Barcelona. The fact that it's located slightly out of the main drag, in the working-class beachside suburb of Poble Nou, should not stop you making the trip. The restaurant is divided into two ambientes: One is old-school -- with marble tabletops and wooden beams -- while the other is modern Mediterranean. But no one comes to gawk at the surroundings. The sole objective is to enjoy the freshest seafood in Barcelona, cooked in classical ways with surprising touches. Local gambas (prawns) are served with steaming garbanzos (chickpeas), or a baked (al horno) fish, such as lubina (sea bass) or dorada (bream) -- whatever has been trawled that day.
This established seafood restaurant in the Poble Nou district has preserved much of its old-fashioned charm. It serves market—fresh cuisine with flair and creativity. You can choose from three different types of bread available here. As its name, Els Pescadors (the fishermen) suggests, you should stick with the delicious fish and shellfish dishes that range from simple steamed mussels or cockles to an elaborate cod salad with puff pastry. There are good white wines to choose from. You'll sit at an old marble-topped table surrounded by antiques and a few timely reminders that you're next to a modern Olympic Village.
Time Out
This was an old bar in the port district of Taulat that members of Els Joglars actors’ troupe bought and cleaned up some 40 years ago. Then Josep Maulini and his wife purchased it, and turned it into the lovely spot it is today. It still has the air of a small-town bar, with its antique furniture that has been combined with modern decor. One delicious recommendation: grilled sardines in sauce, though they don’t always have them. Rice dishes are a staple on the menu, and they never disappoint.
