Background

About Pollería Fontana

The Story

Pollería Fontana is a tapas spot in Vila de Gràcia, the heart of Barcelona's Gràcia district. It's a cozy, brick-lined room serving traditional Catalan small plates, with wine and beer on the list. The name nods to the old poultry shop the family once ran on the same street.

The Cuisine

The kitchen works in the Catalan tapas register — small plates meant for sharing across the table, like croquetas and bombas, drawn from family recipes. Wine and beer are served, and there's dessert if you're not ready to leave.

The Team

The kitchen focuses on tapas built for sharing plus grilled-meat plates as the centerpiece. The format leans toward an order-a-few-things, pass-them-around kind of meal rather than rigid courses.
