Can Paixano is renowned for its no-frills approach to tapas, where quality and authenticity reign supreme. The menu features a delightful array of dishes, but two standout items truly shine. First, the Iberico jamón, thinly sliced and bursting with flavor, pairs perfectly with a glass of their house-made rosat cava. This sparkling wine, known for its refreshing notes, elevates the dining experience and is a favorite among locals. Another must-try is their mixed sausage platter, which offers a savory journey through traditional Spanish flavors, making it a perfect companion for a casual gathering.

After indulging in tapas, visitors can stroll to nearby attractions such as the vibrant La Rambla or the stunning Gothic Quarter, both rich in culture and history.

No frills tapas bar! A must for an authentic experience. Everything tastes better with a bottle of “rosat” cava!
While it is not refined cuisine, the food is of good value and service is fast and efficient.

This place is 10 out of 10. I went here twice during my holiday. It’s good, fast and very cheap! It was a little confused the first time but the staff was kind and helped us. This is more of a snack place but I really enjoyed the experience.

Bustling vibrant very busy Tapas bar.  We waited in a pretty long but fast moving line for maybe 20 minutes. Once inside it was wall to wall standing room only humanity. We ordered a surprisingly decent BOTTLE of Rose house cava for an incredible €9.90!!! Four decent size really tasty tapas plates including Iberico jamon for a total bill of €29.20.  It seemed pretty authentic to us with lots of locals rather than a tourist trap; regardless, it was a great experience.

Another Barcelona must-try restaurant. Down-to-earth vibe and cool restaurant. I recommend mix sausages and any sandwich they offered. Food is generally good paired with Cava.
