It was alright

First attempt at visiting we were very rudely and bluntly told it's full with no option of waiting time etc.

Visited the next day and were seated outside which was nice. The menu is on a QR code which is frustrating these days, especially as a tourist with limited internet.

The food was just OK, nothing made me go wow, the paella tasted like it was frozen, the croquettes were very soft, the gnocchi was very dry and bland. The dip selection was good but didn't get enough bread for the amount of dip.

It has the makings to be great but in our opinion just wasn't quite there.

Pros: Location is good

Cons: Food was a bit bland , Staff not brilliant

Love the seafood paella

Had their seafood paella and loved it. Had never had vegan seafood so the shrimp was a nice surprise, I liked the texture and taste. The paella itself was very tasty, warm and a comforting meal. We also tried croquettes which weren’t what I expected but very mushroomy which is a plus and overall also delicious . The loaded gnocchi tasted homemade and very comforting. The staff was friendly and had a good nighttime vibe. The sangrias were also good and there was a variety to choose from.

Pros: Good paellas, Large variety of choices, Good vibe and location

Delicious Spanish Food

We loved this place. The sangria was delicious and the paella was very tasty. The staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations. A good place to try Spanish delicacies if you are vegan. We arrived at this place after a tour of the Gothic Quarter and El Born, good location, then you can walk around the Arc de Triomf and the Parc de la Ciutadella.

bland, small portions

I just want to offset a little bit the amazing reviews... this little restaurant in the gothic quarter is nice and welcoming, the staff are very nice, and the food came out quick.

I thought the food was lacking in seasoning, the rice for a good paella I would have hoped it'd be more flavourful and should be slightly crunchy... the skillet was very hot but the food was not.
The drinks were not cold enough. There was a bit of ice but it melted without cooling the drinks enough. And I don't include in this my discomfort with the Spanish culture of not giving you water on the table.
The portions IMO were very small, out of dinner we went directly to look for more food.

In any case, I'm happy to have a few restaurant options in this otherwise very unwelcoming city where people are eating animals on the street like crazy and most places don't have even a small snack for a vegan option. It's just with all the good reviews I was hoping for something really good.

Well this review is for dinner, perhaps if you just go for drinks it's better.

And the last bit is that some public performers started playing music next to the restaurant and asking for money. Not sure if they can do anything about it but we thought it was very unpleasant.

Vegan Sangria Experience

Vegan Sangria bar with a nice selection of sangria wines. Also the food is very good. We had the sea food platter as starter and a paella as main dish.

Excellent place if you want to taste the Spanish cuisine!

Great spot

Lovely sangria and nice tapas - wish I was hungry enough to try the paella as this seems to be a favourite. Tapas was still nice.

Best Vegan Paella in Barcelona!

Wow, their paella is so flavorful! I tried the shrimp paella and chicken paella. I highly recommend their chicken paella as it and went really well with the paella. Their tapas platter are good as well! I was surprised about how good the shrimp and bagel in the tapas platter tasted. The sangrias had an over powering spice taste, but I enjoyed it. I highly recommend coming here for their paella!

Good sangria, average food

Their sangria was nice and refreshing. Food was quite pricey for the amount (we weren't full) and fairly average

plant based paella & sangria

This place has great vibes and friendly staff. I went here looking to try a vegan paella, and went with the option with the vegan shrimp. It was delicious, but it did not “wow” me. Never had vegan shrimp though, so that was a fun experience! I would still recommend this place for drinks and tapas for sure.

The best vegan food

Honestly some of the most amazing vegan food we have ever had, HIGHLY RECOMMEND. All the food was amazing - I had the beach vibes reloaded plater and it was too good, nicest vegan seafood platter I’ve ever eaten. The vegan seafood paella was also amazing, and the bubita dips platter was so nice although would have wanted another bagel😉the drinks were lovely - the Frida and the Mona Lisa were great, as were the apéros spritz. Desserts didn’t disappoint either so can’t fault it. Super friendly staff and not too expensive

Pros: All vegan , Amazing fake seafood options , Nice staff

Nice vegan paella

We shared the vegan seafood paella, which was €14,50. We also had bread with hummus, which we were only charged €2,50 for so that was nice. The drinks are very nice as well, we tried the homemade passionfruit lemonade and the basil rose sangria. Nice terrace, kind staff. The food just didn’t blow us away, so that’s why it’s not 5 stars.

Virgin Sangria!

Friendly staff. We loved the vegan seafood platter and the virgin sangria. The mushroom croquettes were not what I expected but had a good flavor.

Increíble 🤩

Conocer Bubita Sangria Bar fue una de las mejores experiencias de mi paso por barcelona; el lugar tiene un ambiente muy cómodo y entretenido, probé la comida y cocktails. Todo MUY rico. Me impresionó la textura lograda en las comidas que simulan venir del mar, si no fuese un restaurante vegan habría dudado de lo que comía pero como todo era vegan me sentí muy segura y disfruté. La entrada que pedí tenía una salsa deliciosa; la paella la encontré un poco seca, aún así estaba rica. Además, la atención fue muy buena. Me encantaría volver.

Sangria heaven with amazing food boards

Came here for dinner and drinks, super cute inside next to the fire, with loads of different sangrias from traditional to unique, and food choices ranging from tapas to food boards to paella: everything we had was excellent! Can't wait to come back and try the rest

Pros: Plenty of choice, Where to come for sangria, Chill place to graze and drink
