One of my fav! I used to work by there and use to go a lot at midday- Busy place meant for the office worker of the district. You won't find any tourist there (but the barmen speak english) and they are really nice, effective & quick. Only menus offer. The terrace is quite noisy, especially for a non-local but where is a quiet restaurant in Spain??? Very tasty and service is great! 10,5€/menu

The path through the industrial Colonia is captivating because of its charm and the tranquility, the vestige of the Modernist era inspires through the palpable 19th century atmosphere kept alive between its streets and buildings. Currently, an important piece of historic and artistic heritage remains in the Colonia Güell. An interresting museum, the Cripta (Guell) and the whole little village is quiet and pacefull. Ideal to go with kids. You also can have a menu on the terrace of the small restaurant on the main little square (food and prices are OK)
Only 20mn from Barcelona, to go there;
- (FGC) from Plaza Espanya, Barcelona, Lines S33, S8 and S4. Arrival station is Colonia Güell.
