Who doesn’t love a leisurely breakfast? Quiet mornings, enjoying coffee in hand as the day’s first events unfold. The city waking up, people on their way to work or their first appointment, and you, enjoying the views. When our guests stay for several days at Casagrand, they ask us to recommend a place from which they can watch the city awaken. Minerva Lumbierres, Director of Casagrand, is clear on this. “My recommendation is Les Filles, a café with a garden perfect for enjoying the mornings.” Today, we’re going to have breakfast at this hidden café. Are you coming?
Les Filles is a café located just a few steps from Casagrand, curiously enough on Calle Minerva (number 2). Hidden behind a huge wooden gate, anyone who discovers it feels like they’ve entered an oasis in the heart of Barcelona. A peaceful garden dotted with trees and offering fantastic nooks to hide away from the world. Huge wooden tables, charming round tables for couples, cushioned benches in ivy green… This place has everything you need to be entertained.
But its best-kept secret lies in its menu. Minerva Lumbierres knows this and recommends it to anyone looking for a delicious and savory breakfast. “When our guests tell us they want a special, organic, and healthy breakfast, I’m sure they’re right. Its menu, with Mediterranean influences, is perfect for surprising them.”
Delicious cake at Les Filles
Les Filles serves vegan options, cakes, pastries… Of course, all homemade and prepared by their own pastry chef. Plus, you can choose from a variety of sandwiches and toasts, and even the drinks are organic, without any preservatives. The coffee is a treat for those who can’t live without a good cup in the morning. It’s provided by SlowMov, a delicious specialty coffee roaster located just a few steps away. Definitely another spot to enjoy during a stroll through Barcelona.
Steak tartare made with organic meat from the Pyrenees – Les Filles Barcelona
From farm to plate. This is one of the mottos of Les Filles, whose philosophy includes using natural, organic, and, of course, local products. Their menu offers delicious breakfast options, such as avocado toast with organic mozzarella, or healthy lunch options, such as the quinoa bowl with roasted vegetables. Those who prefer a more local dish can opt for the traditional fricandó with sourdough toast or the Pyrenean trout, smothered in miso. And for dessert, one of the ice creams from Paral.lelo, one of Barcelona’s trendiest artisanal ice cream shops.
Welcome to one of our favorite places for slow brunch. Les Filles is the perfect oasis located just a few meters from Casagrand.
