Bars, Cafés & Restaurants

Both terminals at Barcelona airport have a good selection of cafes and restaurants. Terminal 1 is the largest terminal and it operates the majority of flights, so unsurprisingly, there is a larger selection here, however, terminal 2 still has a good choice, and there will be something available to cater for most passengers.

The public areas in the terminals consist mostly of cafes and they are a perfect place to relax if you are waiting for a passenger to land or saying a final farewell to a passenger departing. If you are looking for something to eat, you have the food available in the cafes or a Pans&Company for a baguette or sandwich.

The passenger only area is where most of the well-known brands are located. In terminal 1 there is the newly opened Costa Coffee located in one of the outdoor terraces. This is one of my favourite spots on a nice day and you can see what it looks like by viewing our interactive images here. There is also Lizarrán on this terrace. They offer a large variety of hot and cold tapas, rolls, sandwiches, toasties and desserts, and serves cold drinks including wines, beers and spirits. Terminal 2 has a Caffé di Fiore and Deli&Cia café for coffee or a hot drink, but you won't find a Starbucks in either terminal. It is still quite a small franchise in Spain, and where there are stores, there are located in city centres.

For restaurants, my personal favourite is Ribs that is located in terminal 2. This is a typical American outlet and as the name suggests, it services Ribs and other meat. If you are looking for a good place in terminal 1, Quasi Queviures is good for Spanish food or Portagaig for a more upmarket experience. Lastly, there are two McDonald's located in terminal 1 and one Burger King in terminal 2 for a fast food option.

Below I have listed all of the places to eat and drink. There are two sections, one for terminal 1 and one for terminal 2, so it is easier to see what choices you have for the terminal you will pass through.
