Salterio

La Rambla & Barri Gòtic


Wafts of fresh mint greet you at this seductive teahouse tucked down a tiny lane in El Call. Salterio serves authentic Moroccan mint teas (€4), Turkish coffee and pots of milky, sweet spiced chai, between stone walls, candlelit tables and swirls of incense. If hunger strikes, try the Mediterranean-style bites, like sardo (grilled flat-bread with pesto, cheese or other toppings).
