Restaurant Esperit Roca
Costa Brava
At a glance
Restaurant Esperit Roca is located within the Castell de Sant Julià de Ramis, on the Muntanya dels Sants Metges in Sant Julià de Ramis, Girona. The setting places the restaurant in a historic castle complex above the local landscape, with the wider Esperit Roca project bringing together hospitality, gastronomy, wine, exhibition and distillery spaces.
The restaurant’s culinary identity is based on reinterpretations of iconic dishes associated with El Celler de Can Roca. Rather than presenting a conventional Catalan menu, the kitchen approaches familiar references through a creative gastronomic lens. The result is a dining concept connected to the ideas, techniques and creative spirit developed around the Roca culinary tradition.
Esperit Roca forms part of a larger destination at the castle, alongside Hotel Esperit Roca, Restaurant Fontané, a substantial wine cellar, an exhibition focused on the creative process of El Celler de Can Roca and the Esperit Roca distillery. Each element has a distinct role, while the restaurant provides the project’s principal reinterpretive dining experience.
The castle location gives the meal a strong sense of place without separating it from Girona’s food culture. Sant Julià de Ramis sits close to Girona and provides a setting for a destination meal in the Costa Brava area. The address at Carrer Major, Entrada 1, places the restaurant in the municipality rather than in Girona’s city centre.
Restaurant Esperit Roca suits diners looking for a considered, contemporary interpretation of established dishes and for those interested in the wider creative work connected with the Roca name. It is also a relevant stop for visitors combining a restaurant booking with the hotel, cellar, exhibition or distillery elements of the castle complex, subject to the arrangements of each space.
