Our core dish. We source premium, corn-fed organic chickens and marinate them for 24 hours in a mixture of local dark forest honey, fresh lemons, and a secret blend of heritage Catalan herbs. They are slow-roasted in our rotisserie until the skin is golden and crispy while the meat remains incredibly juicy.
Tips from diners
An absolute mandatory order. The flavor of the honey is subtle but makes the skin amazing. Best enjoyed with a glass of their house Brut Nature Cava.
We take our signature roasted chicken and finish it with a glaze of high-grade white truffle oil and wild flower honey. It's a sophisticated, high-impact version of the rustic original that has quickly become a local favorite.
Tips from diners
The aroma when this hits the table is incredible. The truffle is very present but doesn't bury the flavor of the quality chicken meat.
We use only local Agria potatoes, hand-cut daily and double-fried in sunflower oil to ensure a perfect crunch. They are seasoned with a generous amount of fresh rosemary, sea salt, and roasted garlic chips. The perfect side to the chicken.
Tips from diners
These are not your average fries. The garlic chips are a game-changer. They go perfectly with the chicken juices.
A very traditional Catalan side dish. Fresh local baby spinach is sautéed at a high heat with sweet Pedro Ximenez raisins, toasted Mediterranean pine nuts, and a touch of roasted garlic. It provides a perfect sweet-savory balance to the roasted meat.
Tips from diners
The pine nuts and raisins are the key! It's a very authentic version and a great way to get some greens with your meal.
We source the best seasonal vegetables of the week (typically peppers, leeks, and carrots) and roast them until charred and sweet. Served with our traditional, extra-creamy Romesco sauce. A high-quality, honest vegetable plate.
Tips from diners
The Romesco here is very authentic — nice and nutty. The vegetables still have a great 'bite' to them. Great for sharing.
Rooster & Bubbles is a tribute to the Catalan tradition of Sunday roast chicken ('Pollastre a l'ast'). It takes this humble concept and elevates it with premium organic chickens, creative side dishes, and a curated list of high-end Cavas. The space is sleek and modern, perfectly capturing the sophisticated-casual vibe of El Born while honoring a deep local culinary heritage.
The 'Bubbles' part of the name is serious. They have one of the best value-for-money Cava lists in El Born. Ask for a recommendation based on the chicken seasoning you choose.
It's a very stylish, modern space. Great for a casual but 'cool' dinner before heading out into the Born nightlife. Booking is recommended for groups on weekends.
