With the union of three colleagues – two Argentinean brothers and their Mexican associate, they created Bro Barcelona, a cozy welcoming place where Argentine styled sandwiches and hamburgers are served. Their sandwiches are made with artisan coca bread, homemade sauces and other ingredients of the highest quality. Their famous dishes are: the “pollo bro” sandwich, which includes a breaded chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, pickles and Jack Daniel’s barbecue sauce; or the “choripán’ which is a sandwich composed of creole sausage with lettuce, tomato, red onion and Argentinean chimichurri.
