Las Bombas son ahora mi plato favorito en España. La atencion fue excelente y tuvimos suerte de llegar a una ahora de poco trafico.

The food is very delicious, but if you want to try a truly traditional dish specific to Barcelona, you definitely have to come here. Both the price and the quality are great. Since it’s always a busy place, you might have to wait in line, but it won’t take long. ⸻ La comida es muy deliciosa, pero si quieres probar un plato verdaderamente tradicional y típico de Barcelona, definitivamente tienes que venir aquí. Tanto el precio como la calidad son excelentes. Como siempre está lleno, puede que tengas que esperar en la fila, pero no será por mucho tiempo.

Restaurante emblemático situado al lado de la Barceloneta. Sólo llegar se podía notar que es un sitio con tradición y muy visitado, la mayoría de mesas estaban llenas tanto de locales como turistas. Los camareros nos atendieron súper rápido y nuestro pedido llegó casi volando! Recomiendo probar las bombas (como no) y el pulpo!!! (Estaba jugosísimo y el pimentón picante, una pasada!) todo lo que probáramos nos encantó. Cuidado si os pedís las trufas de postre, están muy buenas pero son contundentes, nos las tuvimos que llevar.🤣 Volveremos pronto seguro!😊

Honestly THE best restaurant in the city! The service is amazing, felt very welcomed. The food is incredibly delicious! If you visit Barcelona, you cannot miss this place!

Renan Almeida

Outstanding. It is the best restaurant in the area. No way to go wrong with any food there. I’ve been to great places in Barcelona and this one got my respect as one of the best.

Ivan lenard

Very authentic and delicious food. So is the atmosphere with a fabulous house vermouth! Don't miss out on this comfort.

Tucked away from a main road, La Bombeta provides a warm environment for some delicious tapas. We tried the bombas, croquettes jamon, olivas rellenas, and pulpo (octopus). Everything was great, but the olives and octopus were particularly unique and memorable flavors.

Robert Rodriguez

Amazing restaurant with great tasting tapas. The staff are very friendly and provide excellent service. Highly recommend getting Bombas here!

Dimitar M

The food is absolutely delicious. The bomba itself was obviously very tasty as was the aubergine and fried squid. But what really blew me away was the beans with tripe and the cuttlefish and meatballs stew. Unbelievably good! The Crema Catalana was the cherry on the cake. The service was great as well. Thank you!

Authentic local gem - Great tapas & Warm service La Bombeta truly feels like a local tavern in the heart of Barceloneta. The atmosphere is unpretentious and full of character it is exactly what you want from a traditional Catalan tapas bar. The food was excellent across the board. The ensaladilla rusa was delicious and refreshing, while the fried mushrooms with butter were perfectly crispy outside and juicy inside it is one of the highlights. The patatas bravas had that perfect combo of creamy and spicy, and the crema catalana was absolutely amazing!!!! crackly top, silky custard, pure comfort. What really made the experience stand out was the friendly service. The staff was kind, attentive, and offered great recommendations, especially since I don’t eat pork. They made me feel welcome and taken care of. Prices are fair for the quality, and it all felt very authentic, like I was dining where locals do, not in a tourist trap. Highly recommend if you’re looking for no-frills, flavorful tapas in a place with real local soul.

Very good tapas! You must try the bombas and the crema Catalunya. Be prepared because staff does not speak english. Not the friendliest staff. [June 2025]

Really good food typical from barcelona. You have to try the “bomba”, which is not that spicy. The service is great and really friendly, and the price quality ratio is great.local people go to that restaurant, so it is not “fast food” for tourist”. for me the best food in barceloneta.

This is a very nice little place with great food. The waiter does not speak english but is very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and well presented. We also had one of the best sangria in Barcelona.

Kim Nguyen

Their food is authentic according to my local friends. I ordered the grilled mushrooms, grilled squids and bombas. They are all nice but the bombas and mushrooms are the must-try. The staff are super nice. They barely speak English but will go out of their way for your experience.

This restaurant was exactly what we were looking for: a traditional Tapas restaurant where locals go. Simple interior, but that’s all that’s needed. The food was great, they had all the classics and the sangria went down beautifully. Highly recommend!! In my photos the food was half eaten, but I can assure you the plates were filled to the max when they arrived! Food came to 70€ for two people, and we ordered way too much. 5 tapas would be enough for two people, you need to leave room for their lovely desserts

Amazing place. Best Tapas and experience in Barcelona as far as I can tell. We went to the location on the side street - not the one facing the water. Recommend that one. Large portions.

Una buena opción para locales en una zona llena de propuestas para guiris. Vinimos por recomendación de una persona del barrio y salimos bastantes contentas: pedimos varios platillos para compartir (los pimientos del Padrón quizá tenían sal en exceso y la tortilla de gambas me pareció un poco timo: casi 8 euros por un tamaño más bien pequeño) y un café de postre (no es el mejor café si eres cafetera pero los cubitos de hielo son de café para no aguarlo, algo que se agradece). Personal amable aunque quizá en exceso si les caes bien (demasiadas bromas e interrupciones mientras comes).

Buen sitio para cenar de tapeo. Pedimos unas bombas, unas sardinas, una tortilla de jamón y unas gambas al ajillo. Recomendables las bombas y las sardinas, la tortilla estaba muy buena pero era finita, y las gambas al ajillo estaban correctas. Relación calidad/precio bastante correcta para estar al lado del puerto. Lugar para repetir. Nos sorprendió gratamente la eficiencia de los camareros y cocineros, porque sirven los platos muy rápido.

Google maps listed this place to open at 8am but they open at noon. We were the first customer so we didn’t need to Q though by about 1pm we could see long Qs. Some dishes were wonderful, some were so so. Best dishes was the mussels and clams. Gambas was subpar.

Very local place in the middle of a super touristic area. Tapas are delicious prices are quite affordable too. Try their bombas and albondigas

Gabriel Shields

Bombas are great, we also had the grilled mushrooms and pescaditos which were good. Service and decor is a bit old school. Don’t expect much English from the staff in that restaurant it’s even written on the wall.

Peter K

Waiter seemed perturbed at start when he spoke to us and we didn't understand. Regardless, after ordering, the food was brought fresh and timely. Sign said that English is not spoken there so beware. Worth going as the fiid is excellent.

Tourist here, take with a grain of salt. The hostel I stayed at was given a tour by a Barcelona native who told us to come here for tapas. It's past all of the touristy and aesthetic spots on the water, so I wanted to share that rec from a local along with photos of my experience. The food was solid, everything was reasonably priced, and I'd definitely stop by again.

Un lugar típico de la Barceloneta, pero las tapas no creo que estén a la altura, me parecen muy flojas las tapas de potencia y sabor. La presencia no es mala si no el sabor flojo. Esperemos que puedan mejorar.

This restaurant was over rated. The food was mediocre honestly. We ordered a few tapas and a tenderloin as main course. We were firstly served with the tenderloin interestingly. It was very so so. The fried calamari and small fishes were decent. The clams in white wine were below average without the fresh taste of clams (and there were only 9 clams which was charged at €12). I think it’s popular because it’s located at the busy tourist area. The fact is there are a lot more better options there.

This place is a hoot. If you want a truly local experience come here and be ignored by the waiter (all of whom have worked here for at least 25 years). It’s noisy and ultra casual but fun. Try thei…

Me decepciono esta sobrevalorado, la bomba adentro fría como si la hubieran sacado del freezer se desarma al cortarla, las croquetas malisimas tenía gusto a harina no eran cremosas y no crujiente por fuera, calamar a la romana buenos, el chorizo al vino blanco sobrepasado en la coccion, las gambas al ajillo el aceite estaba tibio no gran cosa. La atención bien

Hace tiempo que quería ir porque me habían recomendado. Pero la verdad que ha sido una decepción. El camarero muy muy arrogante. No nos dio ni ganas de pedir más comida, y eso que íbamos con ganas de probar más platos.

En general pienso que los restaurantes antiguos del barrio serán de buena calidad, pero en este caso la experiencia fue muy negativa: Se demoraron mucho en atender. La sardina estaba sin limpiar , con tripas y sangre. Las almejas al vino eran pocas y en extremo pequeñas (costaban 13 euros! ). El pan con tomate no tenía tomate y el camarero se molestó porque le pedimos que le pusiera un poco más . La “ensalada de la casa” muy precaria y sin sabor a 9,5 euros.

Michaela Levy

I came here to treat myself because the reviews looked great and was disappointed with the food. I don’t think it was worth what you pay. Calamari was dry and the lemon wedge barely had any juice in it. I came late so maybe that’s why the quality dropped. I did really love the grilled mushrooms though.

Since I have arrived in Spain (2017) I go to this restaurant with friends that come to visit me. All the moments that I went there, the old waiters were really rude, but this time (today) was the worst one! disrespectful people, rude and they showed that they hate to work assisting the customer that is not Spanish. The food is great as always, but the service there is horrible. The only one that was kind to us was the Indian waiter. Hope you can improve this.

La comida estaba correcta, nada especial. Los caracoles estaban gomosos; hemos comido mejores en otros lugares de Barcelona. El dueño parece simpático, pero la atención del camarero fue pésima: maleducado, impaciente y sarcástico. Nos pareció lamentable. La cuenta fue de 140,00 euros para 5 personas y no valió la pena. No lo recomiendo y no volveré.
