The filling is brutal
In l'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, at Consell de Cent 247, HBB Café is a bear bar at night and a bagel shop by day: properly toasted, golden bagels and a €1 coffee that counts as a giveaway in the city centre. @topfoodbcn notes that at night the place packs out
and that here everyone is welcome
.
The pastrami bagel €12.99 is insane
, loaded to the point of absurdity; the grilled pork one is rated even higher, its meat smoked for four hours. For something lighter, the marinated salmon bagel €5.99 is the cold, fresh option and well priced. Don't skip the pie sliders (two for €9): round, crisp puff-pastry parcels where the filling is brutal
, the beef one included.
No score given, and nothing sponsored: just generous fillings and prices that hold up, coffee included. In the comments, the same question keeps coming back, half joke, half genuine, about the gay-bar label and whether anyone can simply walk in to eat.
In the comments, the debate is whether a gay bar is any different from a regular bar, and whether you can just come for the bagels.
