To expereince Barcelona at its most rustic, become one of the locals and visit this restaurant. It may not be part of a modern conveyor-belt of a chain, but this is not why you visit a restaurant like this. The food is basic, but the welcome is warm, and you feel as if you are visiting a long-lost matriarch of... more

There are so many Great restaurants in barcelona that no matter how old this place is stay away. Time Out guide should be ashamed of themselves for recommending this place. Yes its cheap but the service is atrocious. The food mediocre at best. Try Safra 18 for a bit more expensive but spectatular tasting Catalan cuisine. A true tourist trap. more

This place is reputably the oldest restaurant in Barcelona. It must also be one of the worst, certainly in terms of quality of the food and value. It features in most of the guide books and consequently the management clearly feel they don't have to make an effort. The interior is splendid, the athmosphere buzzing, pity about the food. Go... more

Needless to say Can Culleretes is something of a tourist 'must do', and this is very much reflected in the masses of tourists that crowd around the door of this restaurant waiting for it to open. If you go to Can Culleretes with this in mind you are bound to have a very enjoyable night. Unlike most tourist traps the... more

My boyfriend and I went there to have a dinner, excited about the fact that we are going to eat in the oldest restaurant in Barcelona, just to discover probablly the worst service in catalonia -... more

We found Can Culleretes in Rick Steves Spain book and decided to get off La Rambla and give it a try. It's not hard to find with a good map and once there, we only waited about 5 minutes for a table. Since one of spoke Spanish, we had a great time here, because there are a lot of locals... more

This restaurant is a big tourist trap. Once you in you get immediately the menu and 1 minute later the waiter is back and wants your order. After you order the appetizer (soup, cannelones) is there in 5 minutes (microwaive ?). And so on. The potatoes were definetly out of a can. The atmosphere is even not that great since... more

My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant. After being ripped off for drinks and decidedly dodgy food on La Ramblas, this place was a real treat. The food was lovely and the portions huge. The house wine was good and only 4 euros for 3/4 of a litre !!! I loved the decor too and even enjoyed the slightly... more

Hard to find, but worth it. My wife and I ate lunch at Can Culleretes while spending a week in Barcelona. It is very authentic, both in atmopshere, service, and food. We really enjoyed ourselves. The food was very good, and and the menu offers many very traditional local dishes. The service was by friendly, effecient waitresses who, I would... more
