Federal

La Rambla & Barri Gòtic


Brick-walled industrial-chic design, a sea of open MacBooks, stacks of design mags – this welcoming, queue-out-the-door branch of the Sant Antoni Federal mothership delivers outrageously popular Australian-inspired brunches in a calming glassed-in space overlooking a quiet square. It's known for creative dishes such as baked eggs with spinach and gruyère, avocado toast with carrot hummus and French toast with berry compote.
