At Vincci Mae, food and drink are as design‑driven as the interiors. Expect a compact but considered line-up that fits a boutique city break perfectly.

West Food & Bar
The hotel’s main à la carte restaurant serves a creative mix of international, Spanish and Catalan dishes at breakfast, lunch and dinner. Mornings start with a generous buffet-style spread, while later in the day you can tuck into tapas-style bites or full plates paired with local wines and cava.

Mae Bar
Head up to the rooftop terrace for the Mae Bar – a lounge-style spot where cocktails, local and international drinks, and light bites are served with a side of panoramic views. It’s a natural pre‑dinner or nightcap venue and a highlight of the hotel.

A smart-casual dress code may apply in the restaurant and bar. Menus, opening times and whether reservations or supplements are needed can vary by season and board basis, so it’s best to check the latest details on arrival. What All Inclusive typically includes.
