A cup of coffee

    Cup and Cake

    Posted by wilfredbcn 11 May 2011

    Start the day with freshly baked pastries at Cup and Cake located in the leafy pedestrian stretch of Enric Granados between Avinguda Diagonal and Carrer Paris.
    As the name suggests, several varieties of cupcakes figure largely on the menu, alongside traditionally popular breakfast favourites such as toast, ham and other freshly made sandwiches.
    All products are freshly handmade using the finest natural ingredients and there’s a strict no additives policy.
    Coffee is 100% organic and the baristas are all qualified by the Specialty Coffee Association of Europe, guaranteeing you a first class café con leche.
    Cup and Cake has no terrace but there are cushions on a bench just by the window where you can enjoy your coffee and the bright Barcelona mornings.
    Inside, the décor is a quaint mixture of odds and ends with a welcoming, informal feel.
    Cup and Cake is open for breakfast and tea but closes at lunchtime.
