Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"This place has a great vibe to it. It’s a bit busy during the morning but plenty of seatings. We ordered a cappuccino, café latte, a mediterinea, and an yuzu/matcha/pistachio cake. All tasted excellent! This was also the only cafe that we went to during this trip that pulled a proper tulip on my latte! Highly recommended!"
"Nacho made the best Flat White coffee and the tiramisu (probably the best tiramisu I’ve ever had) and the yuzu pastries were AMAZING!!! A definite must try while in Barcelona!"
"So good a lot of options and good tables. The service is 3\10 only one good person out of 4-5 she has black hair & i can’t remember her name, such a sweet soul."
"A wonderful spot with excellent coffee and amazing pastries!!! Gil Café is a fantastic place to enjoy a truly good cup of coffee in Barcelona. The quality is excellent, rich, and perfectly prepared. The pastries are on another level !! The environment is warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot to relax, chat, or take a break during the day. A great café with top-quality coffee and unforgettable pastries. Definitely worth a visit!"
"We had a wonderful experience here. Ana and Nacho were incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. Their warm attitude truly made our visit special. Thank you for the excellent service and great energy — we’ll definitely remember this place in Barcelona!"
"We stayed over in Barcelona for a week leading up to Christmas day, and our hotel was in La Rambla, we discovered Cafe Gil as it was close to where we stayed. It became our breakfast for almost everyday we were in Barcelona, as their bakery and coffee was exceptional. But the best part for me was the two women working at the front, they were kind, attentive and accommodating and they knew we were tourists. During very busy hours, our drinks were made within a very reasonable time, and at a very good quality, it's not something we experience in other cafes, even across the world. Their choice of music selection was also good. The staff would sometimes playfully sing along to the music as well, it really made the atmosphere comforting and fun. I'd recommend this cafe to anyone staying in the La Rambla area for a exceptional, and reliable morning cafe. My thanks to Cafe Gil and its wonderful staff. :)"
"Very good and amazing orange juice because it was freshly squeezed. Pastries really tasty"
"A delight in all aspects. Decoration, the service, the food, the vibe…. 5 stars. Crispy bread, not stone hard. Helpful staff with smile."
