Honest Greens Plaça Catalunya

I will return to Spain just for this food chain. So refreshing to find healthy, fresh food at affordable prices. And a clean kitchen. The entire preparation process can be witnessed as kitchen is open plan and assembling quiet impressive. No more dodgy restaurants where you wonder where the food appears from. Brilliant concept and a wonderful find for me as a plant-based eater who values my health. Eaten there twice during my stay and both times food order came out only after enquiring and after waiting longer than 30 minutes despite having a tag. They weren't too busy either during those times (breakfast and supper). I never have this issue at the other branches. They are also not as alert and helpful as at others. Maybe it is because they assume everyone can speak and understand Spanish?

I had the most incredible experience dining at Honest Greens! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The interior is beautifully designed, with a modern yet cozy feel that’s perfect for both a quick bite or a leisurely meal. The staff was equally welcoming, offering excellent service throughout my visit.Now, let’s talk about the food – simply outstanding! Honest Greens offers a wide variety of fresh, vibrant, and healthy dishes that cater to a range of dietary preferences. I had the chance to try their signature bowls and each one was packed with flavor. The ingredients were super fresh, and I loved how every bite felt like a burst of nutrition. The grilled vegetables were perfectly cooked, the grains were rich and satisfying, and the sauces were a delightful complement to everything.

Wide range and plentiful vegan options amongst many grains/salad type dishes. All the sides are vegan and a couple deserts eg banana bread are too. Order via the app for 10% of your first purchase. The portions are huge, and feel really nutritious. The extra protein option eg falafels or tofu are a bit expensive but I think they’re just about worth it - you get 4 big falafels for the ‘small’ size. There’s a free refill of this fruity water with over 4 flavours for 2.65 which I think is great.Atmosphere: loudish music playing, pretty social atmosphere with a variety of sized tables; not the comfiest seating. Upstairs is much warmer than downstairs. Not the cleanliest place with some food and crumbs on the floors and tables! The ground floor toilet was also out of service.Would recommend for a group of health conscious eaters with a variety of dietary preferences, or for a quick bite.This said the ordering process isn’t super clear and you’re not welcomed as you come in - not a problem to just go and sit down but it could be initially confusing!

The place is lively, with great atmosphere and very nice aesthetics. We ordered Turkish eggs with greek yogurt and salmon florentine. Both came on toast. Both dishes were very good, with healthy dose of grease. The turkish eggs tasted very good with the pickles and the microgreens. That was also pretty good. The plating was also rather nice. We also ordered two of their juices, or rather mixed juices, happiness and gloat. That was nice and refreshing. After our breakfast, we ordered some brownie. It was fairly substantial, but a little bit hard and gooey. I wouldn't say that we enjoyed it that much, but the rest of the stuff was very nice. We definitely recommend the place.

We already tried the Honest Greens chain in Madrid so it was an obvious lunch option for us when in Barcelona. And it didn’t disappoint. As delicious as I remember it. Amazing multi ingredient healthy dishes, appropriately seasoned. Plenty of choice to suit any taste.The setting is very casual so don’t expect fine dining. But also priced accordingly.
