Background

About El Cangrejo Loco

The Story

El Cangrejo Loco is a seafood spot sitting right at Port Olimpic, the marina-side stretch in Barcelona's Sant Marti district. It's the kind of waterfront place you head to when you want fish and a table outside near the boats.

The Cuisine

The kitchen works in seafood, the genre Barcelona's coast is built around — fish and shellfish, usually kept straightforward so the catch does the talking. There's wine and beer on the drinks side, plus dessert to close.

The Team

The focus here is a seafood menu served across lunch and dinner. It's set up for a sit-down meal, with takeout available if you'd rather grab and go.
