A Mixed Bag - Edit
Firstly this place gets extra credit as the only fully vegan restaraunt in Girona - however that doesn't mean it should not receive criticism. The food is slightly high in price for what is presented, and there is little indication of what the portion sizes will be, making it difficult to know how much to order.
Read moreThat said, I did like that the food was markedly different from other vegan restaraunts we've visited in Spain (not just burgers etc), and offered Spanish inspired dishes like "crab" cakes and an omelette. The place also leans heavily on its craft beer range, which is admittedly impressive, from pilsners to stouts on draught and in bottles.
Overall I am glad we went and supported a business that is trying to fight against the status quo of the area and country. It is just a shame that there are other outlets in Girona's Old Town which offer better value for money and are of a more consistent quality.
(It is also worth mentioning that we visited during a large festival which takes place on the doorstep of the restaraunt, making it much busier and more chaotic than usual.)
Pros: Vegan twist on Spanish dishes, Impressive range of craft beers, Proudly waves the vegan flag in Girona
Cons: Slightly overpriced, Not obvious what size dishes are on menu, Hit and miss with tapas dishes

Disappointing Experience at Girona's Only 100% Vegan Spot in Girona - Edit
I'm genuinely sad to write this review, especially since B12 is the only entirely vegan restaurant in Girona and I always aim to support vegan establishments. Unfortunately, my recent visit was a letdown. B12 styles itself as a tapas bar, which might have skewed my expectations for a more substantial meal. However, I’ve been delighted by simple vegan eateries before, so the setting isn't an excuse for subpar food.We started with the “Trio Something” dish, which was essentially supermarket vegan items diced up—Violife cheese, plain smoked tofu, and an average chorizo. Next, the polenta dish of the day was bland and desperately needed basic seasoning like salt and pepper. The “B12 Burger” tasted okay but fell apart easily and wasn't cut in half as requested, which was inconvenient for sharing. The side was merely a scant serving of bagged potato chips. Additionally, charging €1.80 for tap water felt unreasonable, and the carrot cake for dessert was dry, suggesting it wasn't fresh.With a final bill of €40, including an alcohol-free beer and a glass of wine, the value just wasn’t there. I recommend looking for vegetarian restaurants with vegan options in the city as they might offer a more satisfying experience.

Great beers, decent food - Edit
It's the only solely-vegan place in Girona so I was more than happy to frequent it. The food won't win any prizes but it's perfectly reasonable. Amazing choice of beers (some local, others less so), and other drinks. My partner had the only red wine on offer, but it was apparently an excellent option to serve! It's in a very pleasant square with minimal motor traffic, just bikes and pedestrians.

Nice restaurant in the heart of the old city - Edit
Nicely situated in the heart of Gerona. Outdoor seating available, but we stayed inside as it was too cold outside.
Read moreYou can choose from different starters, main dishes, and desserts to create your menu (fix price including one drink!). Everything was delicious except for the dessert. We chose two different ones and both were very bland. But that's almost everywhere the case in Spain.
But overall, we enjoyed it, and I certainly will come back next time I'm in Girona.
Pros: Everything is vegan
Cons: The server got my starter wrong, but it was ok

They could improve by making more homemade meals with local products. Offering better quality for their prices.

Positive surprise - Edit
We found this place on happy cow as there isn’t that much choice in Girona. We ate some delicious Tempeh fish, tofu meatballs and a dish of the day. All seasoned very well and was super tasty. Nice atmosphere too! Highly recommended

Gute Auswahl an Veganen Gerichten - Edit
Alles hat super geschmeckt, wir haben verschiedene tapas gewählt um eine grosse Auswahl an verschiedenen Gerichten zu haben. Besonders die mit Pilzen gefüllten Kroketten waren super lecker. Die Portionen könnten gerne ein bisschen größer sein. Es hat uns gut gefallen. Preislich mittleres Niveau. Ein tapas Gericht um die 7€.

Good Breakfast Options with Sub-par Service - Edit
My experience at B-12 was ok. There wasn't anything exciting or disastrous, but everything was just ok.
Read moreThe waiter, who met us at the restaurant's opening with a lukewarm, disinterested attitude, continued to treat our questions with contempt and impassivity during the meal. In a city where there are more vegan options, this was baffling. We could have easily moved on to several vegan places within walking distance.
Once we did receive our food, the experience improved. The cappuccino was perfectly frothed and the brownie (maybe gluten-free?) served with jam was the highlight of the visit. We also ordered cookies which came in the original package, an interesting choice, but were delicious nonetheless.
I believe in reviewing restaurants more on their culinary skills and food choices, which is why I decided to give it four stars. If you're looking for a coffee and a sweet to start your day, B-12 is a viable option.
Pros: Location
Cons: Service

Lunch menu was ok - Edit
I went there for lunch and it was ok. Three courses and an artesanal beer €16. The food was fresh though could have more taste. The barman was helpful but I didn’t perceive him as friendly.

6 stars.. - Edit
..if that was possible. Situated under the arcades in the old medieval part of Girona it looks more as a pub you can get lots of different local craft beers in than a restaurant. They offer a 3 course menue (around 14€) including a starter,main dish,dessert and a drink. So that is an absolutely good price,not expensive at all. Especially for the high quality you get. You can choose between several options in each course. But no matter what we took (we shared 2 menues), everything tasted really fantastic and special, not just an ordinary burger, pasta, .. - like. You can also buy a sticker set for 1€ including 4 stickers. Sitting outside is possible. So if you are ever visiting Girona, this one is definitely a must go!

Delicate food - Edit
The ambient feels kinda pub like. But the food tastes and looks like of a Michelin star or 5 star restaurant. Quite amazing how good everything tasted. Price of 14,5€ is fair. Don’t expect to be totally filled up, like at other greasy places. Would come again!

Teuer aber ok - Edit
Ich war leider zum Abendessen da, mittags gibt es wohl ein ganzes Menü für 16€, das ist fair. Abends gibt es eher Probierportionen zu Feinschmeckerpreisen. Die Vorspeise war recht lieblos gewürfelter kalter Tofu, Chorizo und Käse, ohne Sauce oder Beilagen. Das Gericht was ich mir dazu bestellt habe, waren einfach nur 5 Tahini/Linsenbällchen ohne Beilage oder sonstiges. Zusammen 12€.

Cons: Sehr teuer, Laute Umgebung
