The considered guideBarcelona

Born courtyards, art and a longer dinner

A morning looking up at the Palau, an afternoon at Picasso and an evening that settles around a table.

Book the Palau first, then walk into Montcada with time for a museum visit and a proper pause. Bar del Pla is an optional lunch stop; Bar Brutal suits the evening. You can choose one table instead of both.

This is a full-day outline, not four consecutive appointments. Reserve museums and dinner independently. Picasso is closed on Mondays, and the two restaurants have different weekly patterns. Practical details remain on the linked places.
