About Catacroquet
The Story
Catacroquet sits in El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou, part of Barcelona's Sant Martí district. It's a tapas place built around croquettes, with a terrace and a cocktail list, and it runs both lunch and dinner service.
The Cuisine
The food is Spanish and Mediterranean tapas, with croquettes as the headline — the kind of fried, creamy-filled bites that are a fixture of Spanish bar menus. Beyond the croquettes there's a spread of inventive tapas and desserts, plus wine, beer, coffee and cocktails to go with them.
The Team
The kitchen leans into croquettes as its specialty while keeping a broader tapas and dessert menu going. Vegetarian options are part of the lineup, and the place handles both quick lunches and longer dinners.
