El Corte Inglés Plaça de Catalunya

El Corte Inglés on Plaça de Catalunya is the Barcelona flagship of Spain's largest department store chain, stacking multiple floors of fashion, electronics, homeware, and a well-known gourmet supermarket and food hall near the top. Reviewers highlight it as a genuine one-stop destination where nearly anything can be found under one roof, and with over 55,000 reviews and a 4.2 rating it's one of the most visited shopping stops in the city.

Its high must-see score alongside modest hidden-gem and local scores fit a reliable, large-scale department store rather than a distinctly local or under-the-radar experience.
