premi restauració 2025

Barcelona Restaurant Awards 2025

Barcelona is a city that has a strong, creative, innovative, sustainable and diverse culinary offering. Over the years, restaurants in the city’s districts and neighbourhoods have become an essential part of the city’s fabric, and, at the same time, a key player in promoting the potential of Barcelona’s culinary culture.

Barcelona City Council’s Directorate for Retail, Restaurants and Food Services has announced the winners of the sixth edition of the Barcelona Restaurant Awards, honouring the city restaurants that stood out in 2024 due to their engagement with their respective neighbourhoods and values such as integration, quality of life, sustainability, innovation and dedication to service.

The Barcelona Restaurant Awards seek to recognise and promote the initiatives of neighbourhood restaurants and local establishments in the city and highlight their contribution to high-quality, locally sourced and sustainable cuisine that forms part of Barcelona’s identity.
