Thanksgiving in Barcelona

Whether you're missing the feasts from back home or just looking for another reason to overindulge, here are some ideas for celebrating Thanksgiving in Barcelona

Written by Time Out Barcelona Editors

It's true, there is no Thanksgiving in Barcelona. But if you're suddenly feeling like something's missing and you need your annual fix of feasting on turkey with all the trimmings, there are a few American-friendly restaurants and shops out there that can help you feel at home. Don't forget to book your table in advance! Canadians, you're welcome to celebrate as well. If it makes you more comfortable, just wear your giant maple leaf to dinner. We know you have one.

And what's post-Thanksgiving without a frenzy of Black Friday–style shopping? Luckily, the city has adopted that tradition too and November 28th will see a host of local retailers offering special discounts throughout the day.

Get out there and act like a good American – stuff yourself silly and spend spend spend!

DosTrece
DosTrece
DosTrece has become a modern classic on the Ciutat Vella dining circuit. The restaurant is on a corner and has huge windows, ideal for people-watching. And this year, the two California-born owners are once again throwing a  Thanksgiving dinner (their 13th!), and you're invited. On the menu: pumpkin soup, turkey with stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, green beans, cornbread, and apple pie for dessert. And if turkey's not your thing, they are also offering an innovative vegan menu.

Time: 7pm-11.30pm
Price: €40

The Pink Elephant
The Pink Elephant may not be as well-known as some of the other American-style restaurants, but it's not to be overlooked. With its 1920s-style decor and cosy down-home feel, it's just the place to get yourself a massive Thanksgiving dinner this year. Sure, they're serving up turkey (oven spiced apple turkey, no less), home-made gravy and cranberry sauce, and cornbread with mushroom stuffing, but also on the menu are mac and cheese, deviled eggs, and brussel sprouts with pancetta and thyme. Save room for dessert, because you're getting pumpkin cheesecake, coconut rum cake and home-made sorbet of kaffir lime, ginger and star anise. Booking early is recommended.

Time: 8pm-midnight
Price: €42
