Open since 2005, Čaj Chai is Barcelona’s own version of the bohemian teahouses so beloved by residents of the Czech capital, Prague. The sheer choice of teas on offer is staggering, but thankfully, there’s an English version of the menu and a helpful, cosmopolitan staff who can guide you through the manifold leaf choices.

Once the tricky matter of ordering has been accomplished, it only remains to kick back on one of the many luxurious couches and pick a book from an extensive collection of Spanish and English literature. That really ought to be the end of your troubles, and the beginning of a truly relaxing experience.
