El Quim de la Boqueria is a legendary counter-style restaurant inside La Boqueria market. Known for its incredibly fresh ingredients and masterfully prepared dishes like fried eggs with baby squid, it offers an authentic and lively dining experience.

Sit at the bar for an immersive view of the kitchen and order their signature dish of fried eggs with crispy baby squid.
In their own words: “We've come to El Quim, a tapas bar here in the middle of the Boqueria market. And what I love here is that we sit at the bar. So you have this amazing view into the kitchen and you can see all this food displayed in front of you.”

Order the fried eggs with baby squid or foie gras for a world-class breakfast experience right in the bustling market.
In their own words: “El Quim has been at the Boqueria for 26 years. What started as a nine-foot counter with five stools has grown into this to accommodate this hungry mob... Maybe the best fried eggs ever.”
