Following an inspiring walk around the MACBA, a step into LaA Central would be a step in the right direction. Rammed full of art books and stationary, graphic magazines, catalogues and journals, it’s easy enough to see why this stylish shop has become more like a hangout for art buffs and literature enthusiasts.

The shelves also cater for keen linguists boasting shelves filled with language guides, including the likes of the popular Bill Bryson. Other sections include vast sections of impressive literature and handbooks in photography, cookery, religion, philosophy, architecture, theatre and cinema just to name a few.

Check out the table stands for gimmicky gifts and fun bits and of course don’t forget to pick up your freebie bookmarks, stickers and magazines on your way out. It’s worth remembering that if after all of your browsing you’ve worked up a thirst, the cafe situated inside will cater for you nicely with a range of drinks and bites to eat as you admire your purchases. La Central equals las rodillas de abejas (the bee’s knees).
