17 tours · €75–€425 per person · ★ 4.9
To help you choose a Barcelona cooking class, we read every listing and kept 17 tours rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €75 per person for a shared paella and tapas class to €425 per group for a private Spanish cooking class. A paella cooking class in Barcelona puts you at the stove with a chef, then at the table to eat what you have made, with recipes to take home included in several classes.
A quick way to choose: some market classes skip La Boqueria on Sundays and public holidays, meeting directly at the cooking school instead; request vegetarian paella in advance where seafood is the default. Before booking a cooking class in Barcelona, check the venue's access details, as some kitchens are in buildings with no elevator. The best reviewed cooking classes in Barcelona come first below.
