I'm not really a chocolate fan, but I picked up some good stuff for my friends. I did enjoy a slice of their red velvet cheesecake. It was delicious. I didn't dine in, but I saw a few customers come in and were offered seating.
Long wait New Year's Day.... worth it!!!
Best Churro for the Best Hot Chocolate in Barcelona. Must come and check this place if u happen to be in La Rambla
Xocoa is one of the many bakeries in Barcelona.
They have different desserts and chocolates. Also coffee and hot chocolate. They are also known for their churros.
This shop is located in a small, sketchy alley. It was kind of hard to locate but I eventually found it.
For 5 euros you get hot chocolate and 5 churros. They were good but not as good as the hole in the wall mom and pop churro only shops.
My wife and I came here for churros after our running bean gothic walking tour and dinner nearby. We ordered the a churros and hot choco with no whipped cream and a coffee to one waitress. another waitress brings us two orders of churros and the choco with whipped cream. The waitress kindly remade our choco and let us eat our second order of churros without charging us for me.
This place is nice wind down and have good dessert and company.
Churros with chocolate! We tried it here and it was amazing. They give you these wonderful thick cups of chocolate, and you dip the churros into it and it's delicious. We also got the crema catalana, which is basically creme brulee and also extremely delicious.
We got a chocolate dipped croissant which wasn't crispy at all, disappointingly. Also a chocolate and almond covered cylinder filled with some sort of white chocolate, which was also not my favorite. Wonderful place for churros and chocolate and crema catalana, but I'd skip everything else here.

This was our first stop in Barcelona, and holy moly was it setting the bar high for the rest of the trip. After finding it on Yelp we made our way through some winding back streets and arrived at this quaint little coffee/dessert shop. What was on the menu? Hot chocolate and churros of course.
Now you can probably tell from my photo that the hot chocolate was more like a hot chocolate pudding. That doesn't sound appetizing as a type it, but I pinky promise it is. It came in a little tea cup and had a thick film on top. You had to pop it with your spoon and then the gooey chocolate pours out. This is like eggs Benedict level food porn - except it's warm chocolate (which in my opinion is sexier).
With my mind blown I relied on my instincts and what I did next was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Right up there with asking my now wife to be my girlfriend and applying for an internship with Yelp.... this was a life changing moment in my life. I dipped the churros in the hot chocolate. The creamy chocolate coated the churro like a thick layer of paint. Now, I have no idea if this is how the locals eat this...but if they don't they should.
Super nice woman at the counter walked us through ordering and explained some of the chocolate truffles that my wife ended up getting (and I snagged a bite of). The place is small with only a couple of tables. It seems most people take their treats to go. There's a ton of baked goods that are easy to eat on the go.
I know there are a lot of places for Xurros and Chocolate, but this place is really nice. Beautiful place to hang out and make to order cool looking (ring-shaped) Xurros.

So it's 4pm in the afternoon and you've been walking all day. You are still full from a hefty lunch but it's still definitely too early for dinner so you are looking for a snack. Then there's advertisements of churros and melted chocolate. Your eyes open wide and your stomach starts to growl so you step into a shop. I stepped into Xocoa. The place is located in one of the many street near Las Ramblas. The place has a number of tables and wait for it.. free WiFi! A traveler's only wish when using all this data to get around. The servers are there immediately to greet you and provide you with a menu. I came here for one thing only. Churros and chocolate. So I ordered that assuming it's one dish but nope, it's really two items but whatever. The churros are already made and they just add additional sugar on top. On the side you get a pretty hefty sized glass of chocolate. In terms of the taste of the churros, I thought they were too crispy and not as hot as I would've liked. They come in bows so you get to play with the food a bit while breaking the churro in two. The chocolate was very velvety and rich. Mill chocolate with a hint of the dark chocolate flavor. There is definitely enough chocolate for the churros that you could possibly order another order of churros but if you don't want to do that, Xocoa understands people's chocolate obsession and provides a little spoon so you can pretty much just scoop out melted chocolate to eat.
What makes this place a 4 star place is the service. There were 3 servers during the hour or so that I was there and I felt that the service was on point. Always willing to help and super quick in getting your order or anything else you need. The restrooms also very clean, so if you need to go, it's a good place.
Again, the churros are not the best I've had imo but I think they were decent. The chocolate was better than the churros but they work well together. The service and free wifi makes this place bumped up that star. A great place to take a break from the hustle of Barcelona.
Hidden gem in Barcelona. Initially walked past it and used Google Maps to direct us back to what we were looking for, Churros! The cafe was pretty dead when we walked in so I wasn't sure if we were at the right spot. It's more like a little gourmet chocolate shop than anything. Asked if they sold Churros and were told to grab a seat.
We were presented with a deliciously warm cup of melted chocolate which was better than I had expected. The chocolate was not overly sweet and was sooooo easy to finish! If you've had Angelina Chocolate before this is 10x better as the one from Angelina is excessively sweet but this had just the right balance. The churros ended up really just being a vessel to scoop the chocolate with. Highly recommend popping by though if in the area to get your fix.

Tucked away from all the hustle and bustle of Barcelona is Xocoa, a cute little chocolate/bakery on a small side street off of La Rambla. I actually heard about this place because it was on the "hidden street of chocolate," and well, I really, really like chocolate, so obviously I had to check it out.
I initially walked by the place but came back because my sister and I wanted to try churros y chocolate for the first time. So we grabbed a little table and ordered the churros and chocolate!
The churros were delicious and topped with sugar. Sometimes the churros don't come with sugar on top, which can either be a great thing or a bad thing depending on how quickly you want to go into a diabetic coma. I was onboard with this plan so I didn't mind the extra sugar at all. The churros were cooked perfectly and the sugar complemented them very well.
The chocolate here is a little different than the other chocolate I had in Spain, mostly because it was milk chocolate and not as dark as the kind I had at San Gines. It was still pretty good, however -- perfectly thick and wonderful to dip the churros in.
The two women working at the shop were both very friendly.
The bakery was full of amazing looking treats including these massive chocolate/rice balls. I don't know what they were actually called but they looked intense and amazing. I would have gotten one, but I was worried I wouldn't be able to finish it. I'm being 1000% serious when I say they might have been as large as my head.
Great experience, cute place. Would recommend to all who want to try some baked goods in Barca and don't want to be surrounded by crowds and crowds of people.

Disfrutar de un chocolate como el que hacían las abuelas, es como teletransportar el paladar a la infancia!!! Magnifico lugar que se esconde en un callejón de Barcelona.

Paseando por ella se percibe su dulce aroma y es el lugar típico al que acuden muchos barceloneses para tomar el típico chocolate caliente que se sirve en sus prestigiosas chocolaterías, que sobreviven al paso del tiempo

La Carrot Cake estaba un poco seca, el cappuccino bien. Atención muy buena. El local es bastante grande pero acogedor
El mejor chocolate suizo (con nata) que he probado nunca. De hecho volvimos a la mañana siguiente. Está en un callejón, un poco escondida y rodeada de varias chocolaterías, pero es inigualable. El local es mucho más tranquilo que otros y bien cuidado. El servicio y atención muy buenos y el chocolate inmejorable. La nata la elaboran ellos también y es espectacular. Al principio de la chocolatería tienen tienda de galletitas, chocolates varios y tartas. Volveré seguro en mi próxima visita a Barcelona!!
Ubicada en una encantadora callecita del barrio Gótico, Petritxol es una excelente opción para tomarse un riquísimo chocolate con crema y churros, además de probar otras delicias del menú.
La atención por parte del personal fue más que encantadora. El ambiente súper agradable y tranquilo; enmarcando sus paredes con fotos antiguas que hacen del lugar una experiencia única.

Bien lugar para relajar. La enseimada estaba bien pero algo seco...se puede mejorar. Pero en total todo bien.
Fui este miércoles pasado (09/08/23) a merendar un chocolate con churros. Estuvo buenísimo.
No pongo 5 estrellas porque el servicio estuvo muy distraido hablando entre ellos, mirando móvil, dejando la barra llena de tazas sucias por lavar, etc. Eramos los clientes que teniamos que levantarnos a pedir las cosas porque sino ni se acercaban.
Para mi la mejor de Barcelona. Los dulces son espectaculares y deliciosos. La atención es muy buena. El chocolate no tiene nada que envidiar al tan idolatrado “San Ginés” de Madrid. Hace muuuuuchos años que voy por allí con mis padres.
Aviso; es un local antiguo (la decoración no, está estupendamente) pero la estructura es de antaño, cuando no había una normativa tan específica en cuanto al espacio. Así pues es estrecho y el baño no está adaptado. Pero de verdad, en la medida de lo posible intentad ir, merece la pena, aun que sea a comprar los dulces.
Para mi. Es un sitio indispensable del centro de Barcelona
(No se cómo se llama la bolita de la foto, pero estaba de rechupete)
Un excelente lugar para saciar el deseo del clásico chocolate con churros 😋. El lugar me pareció excelente y muy acogedor. La atención fue excelente también. Si van, pregunten por Santi que es un genio total. En la foto hay una taza de chocolate, una porcion de churros, media porcion de nata y una ensaimada ;). Si están bajos de batería en sus teléfonos, ahí hay donde cargar el móvil.
An excellent option to taste the classic xocolata a la tassa with xurros. The place is excellent and cozy. The staff is excellent too. Ask for Santi if you have the chance to go, he did an amazing job ;). My order was hot chocolate with "churros" half portion of wipped cream (no sugar) and ensaimada. If you are running out of battery 🔋, you can charge your phones there ;).
Excelente sitio para tomar unos churros con chocolate que con este frío cae muy bien, tienen variedad de dulces.
Y lo mejor un ambiente muy agradable para compartir con amigos o familia
Super recomendable para visitar y endulzar el día
Recomiendo los churros con chocolate de aquí! Tenía pendiente probar aquí en Petritxol y bueno, vine hoy 11 de Enero en pleno invierno y la verdad, 10 puntos! La encargada me atendió de maravilla, el chocolate calentito, los churros también calientes con la cantidad de azúcar justa. Mucha variedad de Tartas, trufas y chocolates!
