Background
About Pueblo Libre
The Story
Pueblo Libre is a Peruvian taberna in Sant Antoni conceived as a tribute to the home cooking and classic Lima tabernas of Peru. The owners set out to recreate the relaxed atmosphere of a traditional taberna limeña, a place to eat, drink and linger. The dining room leans into that feel, with vintage touches meant to transport guests to Lima without leaving Barcelona.
The Cuisine
The menu draws on traditional Peruvian recipes, from ceviches and causas to anticuchos, ají de gallina, lomo saltado and tacu tacu. House specialities rotate through classics such as arroz con chancho, tamales de cerdo, cau cau de mondongo, patita con maní, rocoto relleno and mondonguito a la italiana. Dishes arrive in generous, shareable portions meant for the centre of the table.
The Team
Chef Pablo Ortega runs the kitchen. He started out in cevicherías in Lima, then moved to Spain where he worked at Astrid y Gastón and later became head chef at the since-closed Tanta Barcelona before taking over the stoves at Pueblo Libre.

En Lima los almuerzos familiares huelen a guiso casero y suenan a música criolla. Es ley. En Pueblo Libre queremos que te sientas en la mesa de tu casa, por eso nuestra jarana nunca se apaga. Hoy el equipo comparte su canción favorita. ¿Cuál es la tuya? Déjala en nuestros comentarios👇
Antes del primer plato, hay horas de preparación. Cuidar cada detalle en la sala y afinar los fogones tiene un solo propósito: que al sentarte en nuestra mesa, te sientas en familia. ¡Bienvenidos a Pueblo Libre! 🇵🇪
Las cosas claras y sin floros. 🥃 Hoy Nicole te cuenta el verdadero origen del pisco y por qué la tradición no se inventa por decreto (ni cambiándole el nombre a un pueblo). Pasa por la taberna, pídete un Pisco Sour y brindemos por nuestra historia. ¡Salud! 🇵🇪 #piscoperuano #piscosour #piscoperu
Hay costumbres que te definen. En el Perú, una de las más sagradas es la de poner los platos al centro de la mesa. Aquí no creemos en las etiquetas ni en las cenas aburridas de porciones individuales. Creemos en el ritual de "meter cuchara", en pasarnos la fuente de ají de gallina y en limpiar hast
Los platos más grandes nacen del ingenio. 🇵🇪 Hoy Carlitos te cuenta la historia del tacu tacu: pura herencia afroperuana que mezcla los frejoles y el arroz del día anterior. Un clásico de taberna. ¡Ven a probarlo en nuestro seco limeño y también con una corvina a lo macho!
