Good for the price - Edit
Filling and really cheap, you have for your money. The lentil steak was a little bit too dry and too salty for me

Delicious and good value - Edit
It's a burger place, but the burgers are interesting rather than just standard beef-style burgers. A lot of the options are bean/nut/tofu based and the salad and potato bravas side portions are decent on size and also tasty!
Read morePros: Atmosphere , Tasty food, Relatively good value
Cons: No actual cats (if that's what you're looking for)

Fabulous burgers and beers - Edit
I love this place! Great choice of burgers! I tried two. And patatas bravas of course. Very delicious. Oh, and the beer - many to choose from, friendly staff helped with the decision. When I return to Barcelona, I'm definitely coming to this place again!

The best patatas bravas! - Edit
The patatas bravas were the best thing I ate on our whole trip to Barcelona!! I’m still thinking about them! Great food and drink and a really nice atmosphere. And cat themed. What more could you want?!

Pub for craft beers and burgers - Edit
For some unknown reason I never wrote a review for one of my favorite vegan bars ever.
Read moreI guess, since there are already so many reviews, I figured, mine wouldn't carry any weight.
I used to live one minute away and would go there frequently in 2012. They were located at a different spot back then (now, of all businesses, there is a döner kebab bar). I liked the old venue more, because it had a first floor (even though it was often closed for guests). Also, back then the portions used to be bigger.
That being said, for me personally the Cat Bar is definitely still a five-star-location. But it's a punk venue - if you don't like that, don't go there, it would only be disappointing. The food is good and decently priced.
The staff is outstandingly friendly, even though for someone not familiar with subcultural settings it might appear they have an attitude sometimes.
Every time I visit Barcelona, I try to grab a bite at the Cat Bar. Been there earlier this month and I'm looking forward to the next time.
The lastest addition: they have postcards now. Very nice idea indeed!

The best - Edit
I loved this place. It was super chill after walking all day. All the beers were priced the same whether it was 1/2 pint 3.5€ or full pint 6€. I got to try all of them without even asking before committing to the full pour. The owner was really nice guy and all the staff I interacted with was super friendly. The back wall had lots of cat decorations and some fotos of the activism they’ve done in the past. They also got some books for reading, a piano for playing (upon approval) and a small formal dining area towards the back of the room. There’s an upstairs as well, but it wasn’t super busy when I was there so I didn’t get to see it.
Read moreEnjoyed the drinks so much I came back the next day just to support and try some of the food. The Tofish burger and bravas slapped. I was really happy with it for sure. Ended up just chatting and listening to all kinds of music they were showing as closing time hit. Felt like a group of friends just catching up. Will definitely be back when in bcn!
Pros: All vegan, Atmosphere, Friendly staff

Disappointing - Edit
The place was easy to find, friendly and English speaking staff. A bit disappointed that there are no cats there, but the staff's dog was very cute! The food looked very good, but it was not so tasty. The burger bun was good, but the burger was soggy and a bit tasteless. The tofuish was very dry, however the potato wedges was good.

great beers and burgers - Edit
Simple and cosy place where they only serve vegan burgers with patatas bravas and salad. 8 different beers on tap, available pints and half pints. Those that I tried were fantastic. Salad and bravas were also delicious and the Burger pretty good. Strongly recommended for an easy night chatting with friends in intimate environment enjoying a few tasty pints with cruelty free pub food!

Vegan burgers since 2009 - Edit
CatBar is probably one of the first vegan restaurants/bars in Barcelona, established in 2009 (long before "cat bars" were a thing, so don't expect cats running around 🐱).

Disappointing Food - Edit
Vegan Cat Bar is a wonderfully imagined British bar, but the food disappointed me.
Read moreThe interior provides an eccentric British pub feel. With kooky cat decor, the only thing missing is the actual cat. Instead, they have a lovely dog that keeps you entertained while you wait for your food. The staff is delightful, and If you're a tourist, they speak English.
The idea of trying cactus excited me. It was the main reason we chose Vegan cat bar. I liked the cactus, but it could have been improved with lemon or an additional spice or seasoning. The tofish, a tofu flank lightly crusted with breadcrumbs, was overcooked, overshadowing the nori-fish flavor. The burger was a little bland and mushy.
Vegan Cat Bar could be much more if they could improve their menu items. The concept an

Cactus Cat Bar is a different restaurant, that doesn't serve cactus or have a bar.
Read more"vegan"CatBar is a vegan Burger and craft beer bar, with a couple of other options like the Tof-ish and Cacus "gluten free" options.
We do have additional spicy sauces, from slightly spicy Sriracha Spicy Chili Sauce with 2,500 Scoville units to Mic.s Chilli's VOODOO REAPER with 1,200,000 Scoville units , and we also have lemons which are served with the Tof-ish & chips and Vermut..
The burgers have been the same for the last 10 years and still seem popular, but we are thinking of adding the "Beyond Burger" with vegan cheese for our non-vegan plant based customers,

Nice place, not a wow - Edit
The service was ok, greeted and told to sit where we liked which was nice.
Read moreAtmosphere was a bit flat, no music.
We ordered tofish and chips and it was lovely, the wedges were really nice and the tofish was perfectly cooked.
Good value for money.
All was nice but wouldn't be in a rush to return.

El local es lindo aunque es un poco oscuro y parecería que le falta un poco de limpieza. Las hamburguesas las hacen ellos mismos y son porciones generosas. Tienen un sistema de visitas y creo que tienes una comida gratis después de 10 compras.

Great vibes, amazing food! - Edit
I've been to Cat Bar a few times and it's never disappointed.
Read moreThe burgers all taste quite home-made and are great it you're not really into imitation meat. The bravas are some of the best in Barcelona in my opinion (and I've tried a lot).
The interior is rustic and the atmosphere very chilled. It's definitely a must visit in Barcelona!
Pros: The bravas , Atmosphere
Cons: None

Best burger I've ever had! - Edit
I ordered the Spicy Burger with potatoes on the side. The burger was fantastic, with delicious jalapeños and what looked like a custom, spicy patty. I got a dark craft beer with my burger, incredibly tasty, and cleaned my plate. The potatoes and sauce was to die for!
Read moreThe restaurant wasn't too busy when I went (approx 7:45pm) but the staff was very kind and we talked for most of my time there.
The Vegan Cat Bar has a gorgeous cute theme with fun music, a nice vibe, and a nice piano in the entrance.
100% recommend to anyone coming to Barcelona, vegan or not.
Pros: Incredibly friendly staff, Amazing food and filling portions, Inexpensive, great value.
