The top brunch restaurants in Barcelona will offer you everything from veggie brekkie with  smoothies to meaty breakfast burgers with cocktails.

Another of our favourites is Rituels d’Orient, which is inspired by Eastern tradition, they offer facials, body treatments, massages, hand and foot treatments, eastern depilation and pleasures of the hamman. 

 

One of the most sought after spas in Barcelona however is the Aire Ancient Baths, situated in the trendy El Born district. The spaces available in Aire are temples which are dedicated to the relaxation of both the body and mind. These are inspired by the tradition of baths from ancient Roman, Greek and Ottoman civilizations. What a relaxation way to spend your day with your loved one. 

 

Wine tasting

This is the opportunity to enjoy a session learning more about tasting techniques, different varieties of wine, whilst also enjoying regional produce. There are wine tours available throughout El Born which begin at only €20 per adult. 

 

There are also sangria tours available in the famous gothic quarter which are around 3 hours long, the perfect way to spend a romantic afternoon. This tour begins with a walking tour around this quarter to admire the historic attractions, introducing you to aspects that most tourists miss out on. After the tour you will spend time with your guide and fellow visitors finding out more information about Barcelona over some refreshing sangria.

The paella experience allows you to not only drink your way through the local cava, but also to learn the 10 steps of creating the perfect paella.

Cultural sightseeing 

 

romantic anniversary barcelonaWhat better way of romanticising your day than taking a stroll through Gaudí’s masterpiece, the Sagrada Familia, or walking through his incredible Casa Battló. You could go for a beautiful walk through his Park Güell, learning about his architecture and creations. If this is something suited to you, check out Gaudí’s wonderful works across Barcelona. 

 

Flamenco shows 

 

romantic anniversary barcelonaFlamenco historically has origins in the folk music of Spain, influenced mainly by Spanish, Gypsy and Moorish instruments and style. This style consists of song, music and dance, a fun and different way of making the most of your anniversary. Barcelona hosts some of the best performances of Flamenco, with the option to enjoy an in house meal prior to the performance. 

 

Some of the best flamenco shows include the Tablao Cordobes, which can include an all you can eat buffet of Spanish cuisine made of 44 dishes. The Tablao Flamenco de Carmen, which is in Barcelona’s Poble Espanyol, here you will find options for dinner included, tapas included or just drinks included with your ticket. We would also recommend Flamenco Art at Palau de la Musica, this building in itself is beautiful and worth a visit, designed by Gaudí’s teacher, Luis Domenech i Montaner. This incredible show only takes place several times a month, so be sure to get your tickets booked in. 

 

Gothic quarter

Lucky for you Barcelona has loads of restaurants and bars which offer great live music for every day of the year. The Milano cocktail bar offers everything from jazz, swing, soul, R&B and funk to Cuban music and New Orleans jazz. They serve tapas, appetisers and sandwiches and have a stunning modern interior. 

 

Restaurante Little Italy is another one of the city’s most popular live music restaurants, found in the El Born District. They serve Mediterranean cuisine with Italian touches along with live jazz sessions in a true New York style. 

 

If you fancy a bit of a change, the Elephant Restaurant and Lounge serves Mediterranean food merged with Thai, oriental and exotic flavours.
