Gastronomy in Arenys

Despite the passing years, Arenys de Mar continues to be a leading destination for food in the Maresme area.

Right now, the nearly 70 food establishments in Arenys are serving up a wide variety of culinary delights for all tastes. You’ll find traditional dishes and innovative options adapted to the changing times. Most of the restaurants use local produce, supplied by the nearby farms and fishermen who bring their catch to sell at the Port d’Arenys fish market every weekday evening. Highlights include calamari, shrimp, cuttlefish and whitebait.

You can’t leave Arenys de Mar without stopping in at one of our bakeries to pick up a box of coquetes d’Arenys. These traditional oval-shaped biscuits are made with puff pastry and sugar, caramelised in the oven. They’re perfect with coffee or as a spoon to eat a cremeux or ice cream.

Craft-beer lovers can choose from the many varieties of local brand Synera Cervesa. You’ll find them nice and cold at some bars and restaurants in town, or you can buy them at shops all over Arenys.
