For almost a century this restaurant has been a family-run business and today the homey atmosphere still welcomes with its old-fashioned wooden panelling, and time-tested culinary fare. Catalán paintings from the 1950s serve as reminders of Agut's time as a meeting place for artists and writers. The hearty food includes such dishes as sweet and sour wild duck, layers of pastry filled with Catalán sausage and mushrooms, or monkfish with prawns, while desserts are light and creative. Not to be confused with the Agut d'Avignon restaurant nearby. Closed Monday; no dinner on Sunday. Closed in August.

This very trendy tapas hot spot dishes out unordinary treats from the creative direction of Carles Abellan. Unusual food combinations are frothed, seared and caramelised until they compliment one another. The dishes are more of a tasting experience than a full meal but enough of them can add up to an eclectic way to try local cuisine.

This old family run room is not an ordinary tapas restaurant and is one the fly in more ways than one. In a standing room only, perfect for fast eats, the chef rolls out seemingly random, but delicious, concoctions from a huge list of ingredients lining the walls. A superb but also random wine list is best enjoyed quickly with the unique snacks before carrying on one's way.
