LIVING HISTORY OF BARCELONA

Opened in 1942 by Joan Balsells i Torres and Balbina Garrido, Bodega Joan began its commercial activities with the bulk sale of Catalan wines. During the first decade of its history it was transformed into a restaurant, offering a magnificent menu of traditional specialties with seasonal dishes. Its variety of traditional Catalan recipes, served with generosity and its iconic dishes, synonymous with quality and tradition, are part of the culinary heritage of the city of Barcelona and Eixample.

It was 1999 when the illusions of a group of friends, identified with the same interests, became what today is the Penya Barcelonista. Among the activities carried out by our peña we can list trips following our beloved F.C. Barcelona, different cultural activities and recreational trips for our members.

Each match of Barcelona F.C. becomes a party in the Bodega Joan.
