Els Quatre Gats

The 1897 café where Picasso hung his first show

Hours
Daily, morning to late night
Address
Carrer de Montsió 3

Puig i Cadafalch built this modernista house in 1897. Picasso hung his first show on these walls in 1900 and drew the menu cover that is still used. The front is a casual café and the back a formal dining room. Many come for the room rather than the food, so reviews split, but a coffee here is a cheap seat for history.
