Bruma Cafè and El Forn de la Plaça are preparing to welcome customers, bringing two new reasons to enjoy life in Alella.
There's something about a good coffee shop that goes beyond the coffee.
It's where a quick espresso turns into a conversation. Where you bump into someone you haven't seen for months. Where a Saturday morning somehow stretches into the afternoon.
And in a village like Alella, those little moments are part of what makes living here special.
That's why we're particularly pleased to hear about two cafés preparing to open their doors: Bruma Cafè and El Forn de la Plaça.
Bruma Cafè: A New Address for Coffee Lovers
Located at Torrent de Vallbona, 8, Bruma Cafè is preparing to bring a specialty coffee experience to Alella.
The concept centres on quality coffee, with early plans also mentioning natural wines and healthy food options.
It's the kind of addition we're excited to see in the village. Somewhere to stop for a morning coffee, meet a friend or take a little time out of a busy day.
And with specialty coffee continuing to attract an enthusiastic following, we're looking forward to seeing what Bruma brings to the local scene.

El Forn de la Plaça: Something New in the Heart of Alella
Another opening we're looking forward to is El Forn de la Plaça, at Plaça de l'Ajuntament, 11.
Right in the heart of the village, it's a location that feels naturally suited to a café.
There's something particularly appealing about sitting in a village square with a coffee, watching people come and go and enjoying the atmosphere around you.
The final details of the new café are still to be confirmed, but we're looking forward to discovering what the team has planned.

Why These Little Openings Matter
It's easy to focus on the big things when talking about where we live: schools, transport, property prices and proximity to Barcelona.
But often, it's the smaller things that make a place feel like home.
A good bakery. A favourite café. A familiar face behind the counter. Somewhere you can walk to on a Sunday morning without having to get in the car.
These are the places where communities come together.
At One.Homes, we spend a lot of time talking to people about why they choose to live in Alella. The surroundings, the vineyards, the Mediterranean and the village atmosphere all play their part.
But it's the local businesses and the people behind them that help give Alella its character.
That's why we love seeing new independent businesses choosing to open here.
Two new cafés. Two different concepts. Two more reasons to enjoy life in Alella.
We wish both teams every success and look forward to visiting when their doors open.
Opening dates have yet to be confirmed. This article reflects the information available in November 2026.
