La Llar dels Pescadors - Calella de Mar

One good reason to stop by Calella de Mar is to eat at La Llar dels Pescadors, one of the finest fish restaurants of the Costa Brava.
Lluis, the chef is not only a virtuoso “pitch and putter”, when at work fish swings as well for our best pleasure!!

Located on the sea front, right at the beach, we appreciate particularly at La Llar dels Pescadors: starters like grilled gambas (11,50€), all kind of seafood a la plancha (around 9€). Then it will be difficult for you to choose between the lobster rice (19,80€), the paella of fish (15,40€) or the sea cod with pil-pil (13,20€). Chef likes precision, you can see that at the prices in centimes of euros.. We like him for that..
