El chigre 1769, Sidrería and restaurant in Born district, Barcelona, Spain
El Chigre 1769 is a cider bar and restaurant in the Born neighborhood that combines Asturian and Catalan cooking with seasonal ingredients from Spanish local suppliers. The menu centers on regional recipes and specialties from Spain's northern regions.
The restaurant is housed in a building dating to the mid-18th century, with original ceiling beams still in place. It serves traditional recipes from northern Spain within this historic space.
The place honors Asturian customs by keeping sawdust on the floor and serving cider in the traditional way, poured from height by practiced staff.
The venue is located at Carrer dels Sombreres 7 in the Born area and operates daily from early afternoon into late evening. Weekend and holiday hours may vary from the standard schedule.
The place deliberately skips coffee to focus on an extensive range of raw-milk cheeses and homemade spelt bread with walnuts and Cabrales cheese.
