Look for the email you received it in, which has the PDF attached. If you cannot find it, email us at [email protected] with your order number and we will try to help. Please note that, under our terms of sale, losing a voucher or having it stolen does not entitle you to a replacement.

If we deliver to your door, it depends on where it’s going: €4.80 in the province of Barcelona, €5.77 in the rest of Catalonia and €7.12 in the rest of mainland Spain, per order and VAT included. We don’t ship to the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Ceuta or Melilla. Collecting at the restaurant is free, and digital gift vouchers have no shipping cost at all.
