Balzac Café in Barcelona

"Balzac Coffee is my favorite spot right now. Great selection of both alternative and classic coffee, delicious desserts and pastries. Beautiful interior and an amazing, friendly staff make every visit a joy!"

"It’s a specialty coffee place that feels a bit like home. The staff super friendly and welcoming. They take their time to really serve you and to make you feel welcomed. Many reviewers complain about the waiting time, and it’s true that the waiting time may be a bit high but it’s precisely because they take their time with each customer. I really recommend the tamarindo espresso tonic. 11/10"

"overall we’ve a positive experience. The interior design is beautiful — very thoughtfully done and aesthetically pleasing. The attention to detail really stands out. The date-filled pastry with chocolate was absolutely brilliant — super delicious and clearly made with care. However, two important comments. First, the pricing feels excessively high. Charging €5 for a date pastry seems unreasonable — and that’s coming from someone used to expat prices. The margins feel disproportionate to the offering. Second, the noise setup in the café is unfortunately very poorly designed. The speakers are extremely loud, with harsh high frequencies that make it almost impossible to have a conversation. Combined with the overall acoustics of the space, it creates a very uncomfortable environment. While the café looks beautiful, it’s simply not possible to sit and spend time there, which makes it feel not very welcoming. We hope this feedback is taken constructively, as the place clearly has a lot of potential."

"Mi café favorita! The mist beautiful cafe I ever been to in Barcelona! The Aesthetic is pure, cool, kinda touch industrial! I absolutely love it! The cafe variation are great! And I love the Bathrooms with the Aesope hand soap :)"

"Super cute coffee shop. Love the decoration! The staff is super friendly and attentive. The coffe is great too and got to try some of the pastries as well."

"Very cute coffee spot the decor is subtly done the music is great coffees are good. I had a pain au Chocolat esthetically it was flawless but It was more doughy then flaky lacked that crispiness on the outside. Still a decent pain au Chocolat . I would definitely come back I liked the vibe and ambiance"

"Nice atmosphere, modern design. The barista is very attentive, coffee was really good and the pastries looked great"
