The laws and restrictions are not exactly clear but it is apparently <strong>illegal<\/strong> to have a BBQ within the parameters of Barcelona city. At the very least, you would be advised to consult your neighbours in the first instance, as they may or may not be happy with the idea of a barbecue on their roof.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But don\u2019t let that deter you from organising some BBQ fun, as there are a few <strong>great spots<\/strong> in and around Barcelona where you can enjoy <strong>BBQ facilities in idyllic locations.<\/strong> Barbecues in natural surrounding always have an added element of fun and adventure.

There is a bar-restaurant and also a merendero (merendero meaning picnic area) in this fantastic location amidst the nature and beauty of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Serra_de_Collserola\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Collserola Park<\/a><\/strong>.
