BARCELONA
To snack on sandwiches and pancakes in a cozy place that is very prepared to go with children (toys, books, games for everyone and space to leave baby strollers), nothing better than the girl (Ramón y Cajal, 36).
In Chok (Carme, 3), for example, they sell handmade donuts, and in comaxurros (Muntaner, 562) some surprising churros with very original flavors, such as sobrassada. For an American-style breakfast, delight yourself with some French toasts with bananas or try the Huevos Rancheros with guacamole, you have to go to Picnic (Commerce, 1) .
But if the idea is to enjoy the typical hot chocolate with cream, with churros or ensaimada, or some cupcakes with famous names like Katy Perry, Marilyn Monroe or Andy Warhol, you have to do it at ** The Cake's Garden ** (Petritxol, 8) . We must not forget one of the classics of Barcelona, the 'granja' La Pallaresa (Carrer de Petritxol, 11), one of the cafeterias with the most tradition and tasty sweets.
Chök: donuts and design.
LLEIDA
In Beat Cafe i Soul (Dr. Castells, 36) The coolest parents go on Saturdays to have a vermouth and watch a live DJ; They also have delicious muffins and craft beer. Another obligatory stop is the ** Tauèrna Urtau ** (_Avenida Pas d ́Arrò, 4, Vielh_a, with branches in Arties, Bossòst and Girona), where you can nibble on a very good potato omelette.

TARRAGONA
Cafeteria Nectar (Rambla Nova, 110) is perfect for stopping off from archaeological visits, and Ushuaia Bread & Coffee (Sant Antoni Maria Claret, 30 C) to have a tea with pastries, some mini chocolate croissants, some cocas de recapte or some mini pizzas.
GIRONA
In Xocolateria l'Antiga , with an art deco aesthetic, you can rest on its terrace while you satisfy your hunger with some bikinis (mixed sandwich), some cocas de l'àvia (grandmother's) or some melindros accompanied by a Swiss (chocolate with cream) .
It is also essential to go to Rocambolesc (Santa Clara 50), Jordi Roca's artisan ice cream parlor that makes cocktails with different toppings. They have a branch in Platja d'Aro.
We love ice cream, in a tub, in a cone, on a stick... It doesn't matter
