Our dish — the plate we'd order here firstOrxata
Orxata, horchata de chufa, pressed from tiger nuts with the protected Valencian name and served cold, with fartons, sugared buns, to dip. An afternoon on the Rambla.
From El Tío Che's own menu and pages, as we read them in October 2026.
El Tío Che
Spanish · horchatería · Poblenou, Barcelona
Rambla del Poblenou 44-46, 08005 Barcelona
A family from La Nucía has poured orxata, the tiger-nut drink, in Barcelona for a hundred years, from the Born to the Barceloneta and, since the 1940s, the Rambla del Poblenou. It's on all year, not just in summer.
