SlowMov is a house roaster with a café at Neptú 36 in Gràcia. Espresso, filter coffee and retail bags put its own coffees at the centre of a visit. The current room has a broad glazed frontage, pendant lights and tables for a coffee break.
Coffee style
Filter is the sharpest order here. SlowMov's house roasting leans clear rather than heavy, and the room suits cups that reward a slower sit. Espresso still has enough structure for a quick stop, and batch filter gives you another way to try the house coffee. Hand-pour availability is not dependable enough to plan a visit around; ask at the counter rather than assuming a V60 is on offer. Coffees change with the season, so ask what is pouring before choosing a bag to take home.
Food and the room
Pastries and sandwiches make this a useful breakfast or lunch stop as well as a coffee detour. Recent visitors praise the bread and the staff's help with choosing beans. The relaxed, bookish feel suits conversation or a pause after walking around Gràcia better than a long laptop session.
Plan your visit
Make this a weekday stop: SlowMov opens from 08:00 to 17:00, Monday to Friday, and stopped opening on Saturdays at the end of August 2026. Both weekend days are now closed. Check holiday exceptions before travelling. For a weekend cup, the roaster points visitors towards its independent stockists elsewhere in Barcelona.
Why SlowMov is shortlisted by Filter Notes
Come for the chance to drink a Barcelona roaster's coffee at its own café, then take a bag home. It is a good Gràcia stop for filter drinkers who want a little time with the cup; the weekday-only schedule is the practical limitation to plan around.
