In October 1992, the first Caffè di Francesco was established in Carrer Consell de Cent in Barcelona, blending the coffee customs of northern Italy with those of Catalan bars and cafés. This innovative concept went beyond just a change in appearance, but rather marked a significant shift in the coffee industry.

 

Since then, many imitations have come and gone, while the authentic Caffè di Francesco has flourished, expanding to seven locations in Barcelona and one in Sabadell. Our commitment to serving exceptional coffee remains unwavering, with coffee reigning as the focal point of our offerings.

 

Furthermore, we now provide the option to purchase our coffee beans or ground coffee in-store or through our convenient
ONLINE SHOP.
We have also taken it a step further by delivering il Caffè di Francesco directly to your doorstep, bringing the essence of our coffee experience to your home.

GROUP NOLLA

 

Il Caffè di Francesco is part of the establishments of Grup Nolla.

 

The history of Grup Nolla dates back to 1907, when Bar Nolla was founded, located between El Clot and La Sagrera, at the outskirts of Barcelona at that time. Currently, due to the trajectory of the group in recent years, it has a set of cafes, beer bars, and sausage shops spread across different points in the center of Barcelona and Sabadell.

 

The expansion of the group began in 1952, when five more bars were inaugurated in different metro stations in the city. Likewise, in 1973, the popular Cerveseria d’Or was inaugurated, which became one of the classic places to find a wide range of beers and the best typical products of German cuisine, but always with a special local touch.

 

From 1981 onwards, new beer bars and sausage shops were inaugurated. The first Il Caffé di Francesco arrived in 1992. In the 21st century, the sausage shops are unified under the brand Bitte Wurst, with the desire to return to the traditional Frankfurt model and with a quality product. The location at the Centre Comercial de les Arenas in Barcelona is a good example, as well as the location on Pau Claris street, near Plaça Urquinaona.

 

Il Caffè di Francesco a Barcelona

 

Bar Nolla was reborn in December 2014, with the intention of bringing the sea to your plate. Every evening, we receive the best fish and shellfish from the markets of the Ebre lands and cook them on the grill to preserve all their flavor and properties. Among our specialties, the clams, mussels, razor clams, “canailles”, fried cuttlefish, octopus… All our products are freshly caught, maintaining the taste of the sea and high-quality fresh fish.

 

2019 was the year of the first inauguration of an establishment outside the city of Barcelona, the Caffè di Francesco in Sabadell, on the corner of Carrer de l’Advocat Cirera and Plaça de Sant Roc.

 

The pandemic of 2020 places Grup Nolla facing a future full of challenges, which like others it has experienced, hopes to overcome with effort, quality, and above all, by adapting the service to the needs of its clients.

 

In 2021, Il Caffè di Francesco opens its Online Shop.
