Bar Roure
Bar Roure is a restaurant in the Gràcia neighborhood of Barcelona that has operated since 1889. Located on Luis Antunez street, it features a simple storefront and offers a menu of traditional Catalan dishes, football-themed sandwiches with player-inspired ingredients, and other local specialties.
Bar Roure opened in 1889 and was originally called El Roble before taking its current name. It has remained part of the Gràcia community for over 130 years, maintaining its character through decades of change in the surrounding city.
The name Bar Roure comes from the Catalan word for oak tree, linking its roots to the neighborhood's identity. The place has become a meeting point where football stories and local traditions blend together through its themed sandwiches and everyday gatherings.
The restaurant is situated near the small Sant Miquel square and is easy to reach on foot or by public transport. It has outdoor seating and a simple interior with traditional furniture where visitors can stop by during the day or evening.
The restaurant has recently gained attention through creative sandwiches named after Barcelona football players, starting with one for young player Lamine Yamal. New sandwiches are introduced monthly, each reflecting a player's characteristics and preferences, such as one featuring smoked ham and smoked cheese for goalkeeper Szczesny.
