Cal Figarot - Castellers de Vilafranca
Cal Figarot is a restaurant in Vilafranca del Penedès that serves food inspired by Donostia, known for small plates and sandwiches in Basque style called pintxos. The space has simple, comfortable furnishings and can accommodate groups of up to 50 people, with custom menus available upon request.
The Cal Figarot building dates from the late 1800s with neogothic style features and fine details typical of that era. It was later expanded with a large hall of about 600 square meters that complements the original structure and now serves as an event space.
This location serves as the home base for the Castellers de Vilafranca, a group dedicated to building human towers, a traditional Catalan practice. The walls display symbols and banners that show the group's history and their strong connection to the local community.
The restaurant and cafe area offers simple and satisfying food often shared during social gatherings. The relaxed atmosphere and helpful staff are happy to recommend dishes and suggest wine pairings to enhance your meal.
The courtyard of Cal Figarot is the heart of the place where the Castellers organize their rehearsals and gather during events with banners and activity. During warmer months, this open space becomes a lively center for the group's activities and gatherings.
