Repsol SoleteRepsol's Solete distinction recognises casual dining spots, street food, and neighbourhood gems with outstanding quality.La Porca is a casual sandwich and burger house in Barcelona's Poble Sec neighbourhood.

Background
About La Porca
The Story
La Porca opened in Poble Sec as a compact sandwich and burger counter built around one obsession: a pork shoulder slow-roasted for fifteen hours and finished with a vermouth reduction. The restaurant has since expanded with a second location in Esparreguera, but the Barcelona original remains the flagship. Its reputation rests on accolades from the city's burger and bravas scenes, including Mejor Hamburguesería 2024 and a Top 2 placement from BravasBarcelona.
The Cuisine
The kitchen works in the 'fast good' register: sandwiches built on crusty bread, gourmet burgers with house-ground patties, and sharing plates like bravas crowned with pulled pork or ensaladilla. The signature 15-hour roast pork bocata is finished with a mayonnaise made from its own cooking juices. A monthly guest burger keeps the menu rotating, while the Burger Party group menu offers starters, a burger, dessert and drinks for €25 per person.
The Team
La Porca is a small independent operation led by its founding team across both the Barcelona and Esparreguera locations.
