Top 5 Thrift Stores in Barcelona

I’ve finally found the second-hand shops in Barcelona actually worth your time.

Ever gone thrifting in a new city, hoping to find that one perfect piece—a jacket, a bag, a vintage tee—that instantly brings you back every time you wear it? That’s exactly what I was chasing in Barcelona

I had high hopes, but on past trips, the reality didn’t match the vision. Prices were steep, the quality was hit-or-miss, and too many shops just felt like they were flipping U.S. thrift store leftovers at triple the price.

So, I made it my mission to dig deeper. After scouring what feels like every second-hand shop in the city, I’ve finally found the ones actually worth checking out. If you’re looking for a unique, wearable souvenir (and not just a fridge magnet), here’s where to thrift in Barcelona.

Happy thrifting!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Jenny

I first thought about starting a travel blog (or, back then, writing a book) when I was 18. But honestly? I figured the world didn’t need another generic guide, so I never bothered. Yet, here we are—because every time someone I know is planning a trip, I get the inevitable “Where should I go?” DM. And the truth is, I love this stuff. Not just the traveling, but the digging, the finding, and fully immersing myself in a city instead of following the tourist herd. Google can tell you where the tourist hotspots and Michelin-starred restaurants are. But the best hole-in-the-wall dinner, vintage shop, gym, or local day trip? That takes work and is my I create my City Rebel Guides. Because I live on my phone (and used to work at Spotify), my guides come with a Google Maps list of my favorite spots and a Spotify playlist—because music sets the vibe, and nobody wants to be copy-pasting addresses into maps like it’s 2010. I split my time between Berlin and Barcelona but have also lived in San Francisco and London. Right now, my favorite cities are Rio, Mexico City, and New York—but that list changes depending on the tacos, beaches, and overall chaos levels. Check out my City Rebel Guides or book a consulting call—because let’s be real, no algorithm is beating my recs.
