Bembì is located in the commercial heart of Barcelona, the Eixample Derecho, a district born from the innovative widening of the old medieval city carried out by Ildefons Cerdá, who urbanised what until then were large avenues with noble palaces such as Casa Milà, the famous “Pedrera” which is only four streets away from the restaurant.
The Ensanche district is home to some of Barcelona’s best-known thoroughfares, such as Paseo de Gracia, where high fashion brands rub shoulders in the city’s most expensive kilometre, Rambla de Cataluña, Plaza de Cataluña, Avenida Diagonal, Calle de Aragón, Gran Vía de las Cortes Catalanas, Paseo de San Juan and Plaza de la Sagrada Familia, where the famous Basílica de la Sagrada Familia stands.
Other buildings of tourist interest in this area of the city are Casa Batlló and Casa de les Punxes.
