Why we recommend it
Nømad began with Jordi Mestre serving coffee from a cart in London's markets before he brought the idea home, opening this coffee lab in Passatge Sert in 2014. The company now roasts its own beans in Poblenou, and this tiny bar remains the place where coffee is the only focus.
Expect carefully made espresso drinks and filter coffee from a rotating list of single origins, with staff happy to talk through what is on. There is little seating, so treat it as a stop on a walk around Sant Pere and El Born. It opens on weekdays only; at weekends, try another of Nømad's cafés.
