Bloome By Sasha | Brunch Sin Gluten Gótico — Restaurant in Barcelona

When I spotted the sign "brunch gluten-free," I immediately felt relieved, seriously it's always a challenge to find a place for breakfast, brunch, or even just a snack when you have a gluten allergy or sensitivity 😌.

As soon as I walked in, the welcoming atmosphere put me at ease right away. The space is relaxing, and that wonderful aroma of coffee - the kind you want to wake up to -fills the air, setting the perfect tone for the day.

I ordered the "blossom" pancakes 🥞 and was genuinely impressed! Gluten-free food can sometimes have a distinct taste, but these pancakes were honestly the best I’ve ever had. They had delicious notes of caramel and hazelnut, paired beautifully with a cream that was just the right level of sweetness, alongside fresh berries and maple syrup.

The portion size was just right, so I couldn’t resist also trying the avocado toast with poached eggs, served with a chickpea and garlic cream and topped with pink peppercorns. The combination was fantastic, I ate with a printed smile on my face with every bite.

To drink, I had a coffee with coconut milk, which was just perfect, right down to the thoughtfully chosen cup it was served in.

As I looked around, I felt uplifted by the details: from the “You are the sun” message on the wall to the staff uniforms that say “Barcelona is where I learned to bloom.” 💖

I loved this charming spot so much that I’ve already been back twice, and each time the food and service were consistently excellent.

I’ve also tried the oatmeal porridge, eggs Benedict, and matcha pancakes—everything has been delicious. I even ordered the coconut milk coffee again, and the barista surprised me with the cutest little bunny drawn in the foam 🐇.

I’m now traveling to Madrid, but I can honestly say this café is one of the reasons I look forward to returning to Barcelona.

A big thank you to all the staff for making every visit special. See...

Had both a very positive and disappointing experience at Bloome. The cafe was very busy and I was impressed that while we waited the staff offered us water. So nice! When seated they checked about my allergies (although I still have doubt about the beetroot hummus as it almost always has garlic). The coffee was good and they had a range of dairy free milks available As for the meal, it was really bad. I was completely shocked by the absense of any flavour. The avocado had a bland flavour and the eggs and tomatoes were just like… water… there was no flavour. Even with chilli flakes, they did nothing. I had my friend check in case I was going crazy and he agreed that there was barely any taste. I couldn’t finish it as it was so bad. I presume i just picked the worst thing on the menu. My friend enjoyed his meal and others around me appeared to enjoy theirs. I would have loved to order the pancakes but they don’t have a vegan cream option. It’s a shame as the pancakes look amazing but heavily use cream. It’s amazing to have gf pancakes available but the cream made it impossible to try them. So many gf people can’t have dairy so it would be nice to see them consider this as an option in the future to make their food more accessible. Special mention, The banana bread was INCREDIBLE and the service...

A phenomenal Greek yoghurt. Cozy interior. Good service. The venue is a little tiny.

On our 3 day stay in the city we went there twice for breakfast. Simply good.

More details on focus comments:

#1 the interior Nice and customer centric. Different customers are sat around the table in front to the counter. That does invite to chat to your neighbour and introduce yourself. I like this part. There are also 4-5 tables inside and 4 tables directly outside attached to the windows. The interior design language is Spanish with the arches and tiles. The 2 bathrooms are clean and the shared wash tables is viby.

#2 the coffee I had a matcha latte and 2 flat whites all with cow milk. The matcha was delicious with the right amount of sweetness and bitterness. The coffee was good but not in my top 10. Its presentation in the hand made cup sitting on a wooden tray would suggest otherwise though.

#3 the food For both do our breakfasts we had the yoghurt and once the avocado toast. Both great. The yoghurt particularly so. It was Greek yoghurt but no just any. We asked the kind waiter about its origin and name - unfortunately he did not know. But he hadn’t found it in a...
