The story
Can Bo sits at street level of the Grand Hotel Central on Via Laietana, a welcoming tapas and wine bar that brings the essence of Barcelona to your table.
The kitchen is guided by chef Oliver Peña, who brings years of experience in Michelin-starred restaurants, and Lorenzo Cavazzoni, executive chef of the hotel. Together they craft a menu that puts local, seasonal ingredients front and center – tapas and small plates designed for sharing, a modern cuisine that feels both familiar and fresh.
Wine plays a starring role. Sommelier Amador Marín has curated a list of over 100 references, allowing guests to pair each bite with the perfect glass. The atmosphere is relaxed and convivial, with counter dining and outdoor seating for those who want to soak up the Ciutat Vella energy.
This commitment to quality has earned Can Bo a Michelin Recommended distinction for 2026, making it a standout address for anyone seeking authentic, contemporary Spanish cooking in Barcelona.
