Where to Eat in the Gràcia Neighbourhood
To help you decide where to eat in the Gràcia neighbourhood, Barcelona, here's a map of its squares connected on foot: where each one sits relative to Plaça de la Vila, with Amélie at the centre and its menu of classic tapas and dishes with a Mexican accent.
The neighbourhood's squares
Gràcia Is Explored Square by Square
Gràcia doesn't have a single centre: it's organised around several squares connected on foot, and one of them is Plaça de la Vila de Gràcia. Amélie has been there since 2006, its façade and green doors opening onto the square itself, next to the Torre del Rellotge — an easy landmark to get your bearings the moment you arrive in the neighbourhood.

How to Get There
The Terrace, in the Shadow of the Torre del Rellotge
If you're coming from Travessera de Gràcia or heading down from Plaça del Sol, look for the Torre del Rellotge: right there, on one side of Plaça de la Vila, is Amélie's terrace. From Fontana metro it's a 7-8 minute walk, almost all of it in a straight line through the neighbourhood.

Dinner in Gràcia
Los Intocables, the four main dishes that never leave the menu, served in the dining room or on the square's terrace.
Cooking with a Mexican Accent
