💡Corgi Cafe Tip: During the summer, when temperatures often rise above 30°C, many of our guests choose something light and refreshing. Try our Royal Pancake – a pancake topped with avocado puree, naturally smoked salmon, a fried egg and pickled red onion. Pair it with an Iced Matcha, one of our guest’s favorite summer combinations before a long walk around Barcelona.
