La Boqueria Tapas and Pintxos Bar

What a gem I found! I came into La Boqueria solo, not really knowing what I was after, so I ordered a glass of wine and a couple of pintxos - WOW! The most authentic and tasty I’ve had since I was in Spain! If you’re after authentic tapas that is served with warm hospitality definitely add this to your Vancouver list! (I’ll be back for the gambas!)

I haven't tried the food but the beer is great and a great atmosphere

We ordered a bunch of tapas and Pintxos and let the chief choose. Everything tasted amazing. We were served by one of the owners I believe who was a wonderful host.

It was ok, we got a scallop dish that had barely any scallop in it was weird. Tapas was basic and patatas bravas were good. No baque cider sadly either. Good friendly service from the Spanish

Great Spanish Catalan inspired tapas. Everything we tried was fantastic, from the clams to the charcuterie boards to the wines. Fantastic service, including having the owner Phillip and head chef Antonio stop by to check on our experience. We loved the atmosphere, it transported us back to a time in Spain enjoying the culture, music and heart and soul food.

Great Spanish chef in the back. Lots of cool art and decor.

Went here for a birthday. I cannot say enough good things about this place. New chef is fantastic - his food is very authentic (coming from a recent trip to Barcelona) and is made with a lot of love. The cocktails are also a highlight!

Authentic Spanish mood, great food from the chef Antonio, and great service

Visited La boqieria on a Friday night. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, staff was friendly and Antonio was so kind! The food is traditional Spanish/catalan and was so tasty! The pintxos were amazing. Will definitely be returning!

I don’t know how to explain this place. we had high hopes but this place is overpriced and the service is very mediocre. Lame vibe. Food was good but portions were small and the menu is quite misleading. I will not go back and if we made a wrong choice with the menu maybe they should not have it as an option?
