Cocktails
All of our cocktails use premium spirits and the finest liqueurs, bitters, juices and other ingredients. An indulgent bar set for people who truly appreciate fine cocktails.
Prepared fresh and cooked to order, our bugers are made from American Angus lean ground beef with absolutely no additives, grilled to perfection and served medium-well in a homemade buttery bun.
A crispy crust, a juicy center and a variety of sauces make our signature wings the best in the country (according to local publications and food bloggers). And if you don’t believe them, drop by and give them a try.
We have teamed up with the finest producers of Canadian Angus beef to guarantee great quality beef served everyday.
Brunch&Cake
Brunch & Cake was founded as Cup & Cake in 2010 as a shop and café serving primarily cupcakes, homemade bread, delicious sandwich, other pastries, high-quality coffee and other dessert items. In Barcelona the cupcakes boom had not yet been created, this inspired Manex to create a recipe with flavors that turned the Cup & Cake into the place to eat the best cupcakes in Barcelona. In 2011, the Company opened a Cup & Cake takeaway shop on Tallers street in the central Ciutat Vella district. A year later, the shop began offering frozen yogurt. Realizing the cupcake “boom” would eventually subside, the Company introduced additional menu items at its Cup & Cake café, including gourmet sandwiches, salads and other savory items. In 2012, the Company opened its first Brunch & Cake location to immediate success. Later that year, the Company’s founder Manex Susaeta undertook a research trip around the US as well as Europe (UK, Denmark, etc.) visiting pastry shops, gourmet food shops, cafés and restaurants.
Do everything with the utmost love, respect and passion for being completely honest with the way of understanding life. We believe in our grandmothers philosophy: make absolutely everything by hand and slowly, with care.
ABOUT OUR FOOD
• All our breads, cakes and bakery products are made by hand daily with no refined sugars and with stone-ground flours. We sweeten only using dates, banana or applesauce. As simple as that. That’s how we make our Ferrero Rawcher :)
• All our cupcakes, cake, muffins and cookie dough are 100% vegan with no added sugars or syrups. • Did you know that 90% of the açai on the market has added sugar and/or glucose? Not to mention vegetable milks... Ours is 100% pure and organic, just like our vegetable drinks and butters. • We don’t like labels, we love including everyone! We have very healthy dishes but also dishes to enjoy in a big way. Because it’s about having a good time and eating what you want, but ALWAYS knowing that what you are eating is natural, with no additives. • Feel like bacon? Great, we’ve got it, but it’s organic and nitrate-free. Want to go crazy with a slice of cake? Perfect! Our frosting has sugar, but you’ll be eating organic, unrefined sugar. At the end of the day, all we want is for you to eat natural food, nothing more. • Here, what you’ll be eating is quality. Love it or not, you won’t be consuming hormones, additives or flavor-enhancers that make everything seem better while hurting you inside. Our chistorra and our meats: animals raised outdoors in Euskadi (Basque Country), and in a quality way. • We love Insta! And we love making our dishes look better EVERY day, but quality comes first, then we make it beautiful. • We work with suppliers like Cárnicas Luismi, our strawberry woman from the Maresme, La Llibreria – people who love what they do, for whom good food is their life.

Blue Marlin Ibiza
Glitzy, glam and everything you’ve ever heard about Ibiza’s club scene and more, the original Blue Marlin Ibiza – located on the pebbly shores of south coast hotspot Cala Jondal – is the undisputed king of Ibiza’s beach club scene, and it's coming soon to Egypt.
Being one of the most fashionable and entertaining beach lounge clubs in the world, it’s always worth arriving early to make the most of the day-to-night, open-air experience at Blue Marlin. With beats floating over the airwaves by day, toes start tapping on sunbeds and the beach before the restaurant even opens its chic terrace for lunch.
Increasingly becoming known as house music party destination, day clubbers can see some of the world’s best DJs gracing the decks throughout summer. After dancing all day, head indoors to the soundproofed mini-club where the party continues until dawn, leaving you just enough time to catch a wink of sleep before doing it all over again…
