Brilliant vegan pub with great 'comfort' food - Edit
This place is now up in my list of favourite vegan places to eat in the world. No, it's not fine dining or health food but good, honest, vegan pub grub at a brilliant price. For 10.50 euros (cheaper weekday daytime) we got a bowl of delicious courgette soup and lovely herby bread, a huge veggie burger, a pile of chips and mushrooms and a wonderful chocolate rice pudding plus a large beer (we could have also chosen from water, soft drink, wine or juice). We were also told we could have another beer if we wanted. The service was really friendly and helpful, the menu is in English and the background music is great. Do not go here if you want fancy food or 'health food' but if you want a filling vegan meal at a great price then this is a must. Do note though that they do not open until 2pm on Sundays, we got there just after 1pm and had to sit in the square around the corner to wait.

fun place - Edit
The pub quiz on a wednesday night is fun (althought it takes sooooo long to finish) the staff are really really friendly!
Read moreThe style of the menu is really cool and theres is a nice amount of options, although i chose the 3 course "special" menu and the food was not very tasty and patatas bravas were very salty. I would give the food the benefit of the doubt and possibly go again to try something different on the menu :)
Pros: very friendly staff, fun atmosphere, wide choice of beers
Cons: non tasty food

The Quiz finishes before 23:45 every week so that everyone can catch the last metro home, it starts sometime after 9pm...

Great Burgers and Beer at Cat Bar - Edit
Spent a lovely evening with friends at Cat Bar. Ordered the hamburger (that you can dress yourself using mustard, ketchup and/or vegan mayonnaise from a basket you get from the waitress; green salad with peppers on the side), patatas bravas (that are my favourite side dish ever now), and beer. Sat in the gallery where it's very cozy. I wish I had a vegan place like this at home!

Excellent vegan food! - Edit
We had the 'menu of the day' for lunch (9.5 euros; at dinner 10.5 euros): everything was tasty, healthy and very filling. And I think prices are ok. We loved veggie sausages and lemon pie, the very best ever! I want to come back and try veggie burger. This place has become one of my two favourites in Barcelona (the other one is Gopal).

Superb place with friendly host - Edit
Had the daily special yesterday. Absolutely amazing food and value for 10.50 for 3 courses plus a beer - the chocolate cake to finish was lovely. Roy the host can advise on best beers and there was a lovely fresh kegged beer on that tasted like real ale. All excellent value and no worries for a vegan as everything checked out beforehand. We will be back several times this week on holiday. The quiz and live music look worth trying this week too.

Excellent atmosphere, food, and spirits! - Edit
We found Cat Bar on happycow and wound up going there three times and we were only in Barcelona a total of 5 days.
Read moreThere's something to be said for the atmosphere. It's basically a really down-to-earth vegan punk rock bar which plays diverse types of music. The first night we came in the staff made us feel like family. Both owners were working 2 of the three nights we went in.
The food was awesome, the drinks superb, and the music was awesome. The played a variety of music and you were able to sit and have a conversation with your mates while enjoying the decor.
We're 10+ year vegetarians and cat fans so we left wondering why there isn't a bar like this in Portland.
Thank you Cat Bar! We will definitely visit again the next time we're in BCN.
Pros: Food, Staff/Ambiance, Beer/wine selection

Delicious UK/Irish-style bar food - Edit
I went to Catbar (finally, after living in BCN for 10 months!) with three friends, two vegetarians and one non-vegetarian and everyone was impressed. Cheap tasty food, large portions, friendly service, large selection of beer, casual atmosphere, chocolate cake, what's not to like!
Read moreI had a delicious all-day breakfast (€5), which was sausages, baked beans, bread, roasted mushrooms and tomatoes and a berry smoothie, which is nice to be able to get in a pub. I tried some of the burger, chips and houmous my friend had, which were also pretty good. Is definitely recommended for cheap, tasty vegan food :D
Pros: Cheap, tasty, all-vegan food, Central location, Good selection of beer and smoothies
Cons: Small menu

Cheap, cheerful, great vegan food - Edit
We visited Cat Bar with two vegan friends and were very impressed. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the seating area, though quite small, was not cramped.
Read moreThere is a wide choice of food and, though a couple of us were tempted by the all-day vegan breakfast, all four of us ended up with virtually the same meal. We all had home-made houmus with their home-made bread, which was amazing, followed by burger, chips and beans (or salad). The burger was very tasty and the portion of chunky chips was enormous and delicious.
Cat Bar is only a 2-minute walk from Metro Jaume. On our next visit we will be making the effort to visit more than once !
Pros: Cheap, Friendly, Massive portions

Pretty good - Edit
My husband and I spent a lot of time at CatBar while we were in Barcelona, just enjoying the drinks, food, and atmosphere.
Read moreWe found the prices to be good, though the food was really pretty forgettable. We encountered 2 different bartenders during our visits, and neither were particularly friendly. One even bordered on rude, snatching a ketchup bottle off my table without asking if I was finished. Maybe they were flustered from being too busy.
The music here was a pleasant surprise... we really liked everything we heard. The wireless is a great bonus as well.
Pros: great location, good drinks, free wifi
Cons: not the best service

All unfriendly and rude staff have been taken outside and shot, in a vegan friendly way of course.

Support this place! - Edit
Firstly, bring a map unless you know the center extremely well, because even though it has a proximity towards La Rambla, no one has ever heard of Boria Street and it is really a small place on a small street and can be difficult to find.
Read moreThis is a small bar with big character. The owner/bartender (who's name i have forgotten in my dotage) was an extremely nice guy who told me of how he wanted to open a bar but as a vegetarian he decided the bar should be vegetarian as well, and took a clear risk. The food is bar food best served with Tabasco. I personally tried the chicken nuggets with fried mushrooms and beans,it was good but not wonderful or extravagant, a vegan version of a pub classic. The prices were decent enough 2 euros for a beer and 5 for the meal which was a good portion.
Sadly the place was half empty. I was told that it was just an off night but it would be a shame to see this place not make it. It is 100% vegan with the exception of the milk they put in coffee and I think it is a fun place and a worthwhile establishment to get a meal and beer at. Cheers! Salud!
Pros: good atmosphere & Music, Vegan bar food, nice staff
Cons: Hard to find, Decent flavors and content

It is 100% vegan, no milk, all the Beers/wines are vegan too
