Espai Boisà Barcelona

What Espai Boisà Barcelona does

Espai Boisà Barcelona is a privately-held culinary experiences and event space business founded in 2010 and operating from a single 100m² venue in Barcelona's Eixample district (Passatge de Lluís Pellicer, 8). The business operates two integrated service lines: (1) hourly space rental of a fully equipped venue — including patio, kitchen zone, and chill-out area — at tiered pricing of €275 (3 hours), €370 (5 hours), and €470 (7 hours), with optional add-on hours at €75; and (2) organized culinary events including cooking classes, Masterchef-style competitions, showcooking, catering, and chef-at-home services, with menus customized to customer taste and featuring 6-12 professionally prepared dishes.

The customer base is diversified across corporate clients (team building, business meetings), private celebrations (birthdays, bachelor/bachelorette parties), families with children, culinary enthusiasts, and content creators/media seeking production space. Ancillary revenue streams include professional waitressing (€15/hour), on-site or at-home chef services, specialty desserts (tiramisu, cheesecake, brownies), and professional photo/video services with equipment rental. Distribution relies primarily on direct-to-consumer channels (website, WhatsApp, email, phone) supplemented by partnerships with travel agencies and catering companies. The company has 11 employees, no disclosed funding, no parent company, no patents or trademarks, and no technology platform beyond a standard marketing website — positioning it as a local service business rather than a scalable technology operation.
