1. Cafe de la Princesa

This 14th century stone palace houses the minimalist dresses and suits of Barcelona designer Julie Sohn (think Jil Sander with an Asian twist). You'll also find narrowly cut men's wear from Danish haberdasher Sand as well as travel bags from France's sleek Lexon. Don't miss the courtyard café.

2. La Báscula

Part industrial-looking art gallery, part cooperatively run vegetarian-friendly café (try the homemade spinach ravioli), La Báscula has one of the city's most idyllic, sun-filled dining rooms.
