The Organic’s: 100% organic

According to the regional press, this was the first entirely organic restaurant to open on Spanish territory. He did it with a renewed philosophy, saying that they are not a simple vegetarian restaurant (in fact, they serve meat) but that their audience was those who wanted to eat in a totally natural way. All the dishes on its extensive menu are certified 100% organic. They offer “Eco-breakfasts”, as they call them, brunches, many options of Pyrenean beef burgers, tapas and salads made to order. The prices are not high (a complete hamburger with potatoes can cost 12 euros and the main courses 8.50 euros), but the taste is far superior.

Location: Pza. Urquinaona, 14, Barcelona.

NoNoNo, fame at the media level

This restaurant has been given a lot of publicity, so it is very possible that you have already heard of it. Its cuisine is based on biodynamic organic food, a new concept that is presumed even more environmentally friendly than environmentalism . All the products on its menu are organic, but we can also eat things that we would not find elsewhere, so it will be a pleasure to discover new culinary horizons. It offers both vegetables (grown in an organic garden) and meats from the Pyrenees , highlighting veal and lamb. In his garden more than 30 different varieties of tomatoes are grown, some until now disappeared.

It is a gourmet restaurant-bistro, where we will find dishes and recipes that we have probably never tried before. The price is a bit higher, also due to the area in which it is located. A dinner can cost us around 25 years, drinks excluded.

La Vaquería Suiza: to feel like in town

We like this restaurant for two reasons: for its rural touch that makes us travel to rural areas in the heart of the city and because its menu, variable, adapts perfectly to the season of the year and local products, being 100% natural . The rural decoration is a luxury and the simple dishes, nothing too exotic, but everything with a great taste “of always” and of organic origin: the bread is completely handmade (it tastes like grandmother’s!), There are toasts, Garlic soups, French fries … and, to top it all off, they serve natural cocktails at night.

Location: Calle de Blanca de Navarra, 8, Madrid

Other cities

In general, there are many Spanish cities where this type of gastronomy has been triumphing for years and where there is a perceived desire to return to nature when it comes to food . For example, in Valencia, Seville, Oviedo and a long etcetera there are very good organic restaurants. To cite some examples:

L’Obrador, the organic horchatería in Valencia

Few things are more typical of the Valencian Community than a delicious and fresh horchata . L’Obrador , on the second line of the beach, offers us a selection of artisanal and organic ice cream and horchatas in a spacious venue with careful decoration and a large terrace. In addition, its price is not higher than that of others in the area, despite offering us this privilege for our health and for the environment.

Location: Av. Mare Nostrum, 7, Alboraia, Valencia

Búho Bío: an informal and friendly place to taste the quality of nature

Back in Valencia, we find the famous Búho Bío restaurant , with a casual and simple decoration, as well as fresh, where a firm commitment to Mediterranean cuisine stands out. They have burgers (organic meat, of course) and also an extensive menu for both vegans and vegetarians. You can try there couscous with vegetables, vegetable meatballs with sauce and a variety of desserts and it will not be unusual for you to find yourself arriving with a live music performance to liven up the evening.

Garibolo: a vegetarian gem

It is a vegetarian restaurant located in Bilbao with options also for those who follow the vegan philosophy and, most interestingly, with totally natural and environmentally friendly products. In this restaurant with colorful decoration (both in the rooms and in its dishes) you can try a wide gastronomic offer, which includes creams, stews, scrambled eggs with seasonal vegetables and more than 42 homemade desserts to choose from.

Location: Calle Fernández del Campo, 7, Bilbao.

Yatiri: relaxation in Ibiza

This restaurant proposes a meal based on organic dishes in a relaxing environment. It is designed to disconnect thanks to its location (away from the center) and its particular decoration, which is based on a collection of objects from the Colombian jungle . In Yatiri the menu is innovative, so you will always find small modifications; in addition, they strictly follow organic viticulture.

Location: Calle Gregal, 9, Ibiza

EcoCenter Rate: a Three in One

Located in the beautiful city of Tarifa (Cádiz province), this organic restaurant offers us in the same place an organic products store and a holistic center . Most of its menu is vegetarian, although not all, and it is based on local and seasonal products, as well as being wide, spacious and having a wood oven, which is why its pizzas are reputed to be an anthology.

Location: Calle San Sebastián 6, Tarifa (Cádiz).

These are just some of the most delicious and original organic restaurants that you can find in Spain, although fortunately the offer increases every month. What is your favorite organic restaurant and why?

Conclusions

Some of these restaurants are vegetarian or vegan , but not all; In fact, if we think that organic restaurants have a very different menu than a traditional home restaurant, we are wrong. They can be of very different kinds and offering all kinds of food: creative, Italian, Mexican, Mediterranean … the variety is wide and now we are going to see what real restaurants offer us.

Not only are these restaurants and venues (there are also more and more bars, even pubs or discos with this philosophy) are ecological in the menu, also in the decoration materials, in the operation of the business, in the work of raising awareness as a public platform, some use solar panels, do social and environmental works, and so on. In short, they must comply with a series of green premises and help your restaurant not only harm the environment as little as possible, but also help protect it with your actions.

In Spain, where more and more people demand this type of behavior, quality ecological restaurants are opening, which carry out a very interesting philosophy . Although we cannot say which are the best because they all have their interesting point, we offer you some of them in case you want to try (or repeat) the great experience of delighting yourself with the best of organic cuisine.
