Sustainable Restaurant in Barcelona — Created with Care for People and the Planet
At Faire, Barcelona's vegetarian restaurant in Eixample, sustainability is not a feature — it is our foundation. It lives in the way we source, the way we cook, the way we treat people, and the way we show gratitude to the Earth.
We believe what’s on the plate should nourish the body, the planet, and the community around it. This belief is woven through our Manifesto, where
“every plate is an opportunity to feel good and do good.”
Faire was created to prove something simple and powerful:
that a restaurant can be beautiful, welcoming, and thriving — while being deeply responsible.
This is our way of giving back.
This is what “good” means to us.
Our Conscious Living Philosophy
2.1. Good for the Planet
100% vegetarian.
Built on seasonal and local sourcing.
Rooted in circularity — from soil to plate and back to soil through composting.
Every choice made with the intention to reduce emissions, protect ecosystems, and regenerate nature.
2.2. Good for People
A welcoming space for everyone — families, neighbours, solo diners, travellers, and pets.
A team-first culture that prioritises wellbeing, respect, inclusion, and work-life balance.
Spaces designed for slow moments, nourishment, and connection.
2.3. Good for Our Community
Faire is built on connection — with producers, with Barcelona, with our guests, and with each other.
We invest in local farms, circular systems, small makers, and ethical collaborations.
We believe that sustainability grows through community.
Seasonal. Local. Honest.
At our vegetarian brunch and tapas restaurants, our food is only as good as the people who grow it. That’s why we work with producers who care for the land, respect biodiversity, and craft with intention — values fully aligned with our Manifesto and our sustainability commitments.
We prioritise Catalan and Spanish producers to reduce transport emissions and support the circular economy.

Cooking With the Rhythm of the Seasons
We cook the way nature intended: with what the season gives us. Our menus evolve with the Mediterranean calendar — spring greens, summer tomatoes, autumn roots, winter citrus and brassicas.
This is how we reduce transport, celebrate local biodiversity, and serve food that feels good at its core.
We prioritise plant-forward cooking at Faire. Brunch & Drinks and Faire. Tapas & Wine because vegetarian cuisine has a significantly lower carbon footprint than meat-based menus — a principle highlighted in our sustainability document.
Nothing Good Goes to Waste
Every peel, stalk, skin, stem, and leftover has a purpose. At our vegetarian restaurants in Barcelona, we design our kitchen systems to minimise waste, reuse ingredients creatively, and compost everything possible.
Peel · Stalk · Skin · Stem · Leftover
MINIMISE · REUSE · COMPOST
Our Circular Practices Include:
Low & frequent production to avoid over-prepping
Returning unused cooked food to staff meals
Turning organic waste into compost with Abonokm0 (24 tons/year collected → ~12 tons of soil)
Upcycling coconut shells into planters
Reusing TetraPak boxes as takeaway cup carriers
Refusing suppliers who over-package
Using repurposed second-hand interior design and furniture

This ensures every ingredient respects life.
