Is there anywhere for kids to eat?

Yes. There's a food court with quick options plus several sit-down restaurants, and a Caprabo supermarket if you'd rather grab something to take to the gardens next door.

Can I get there easily with a stroller?

Yes. Metro L3 (Maria Cristina or Les Corts) and the tram stop nearby, the center is step-free with elevators throughout, and there's a large paid parking garage if you drive.

About

A big shopping center by Rafael Moneo, designed as a 'skyscraper lying on its side' that runs more than 300 meters along the Diagonal with over 170 shops. For families it is a reliable rainy-day or heat-escape outing: fully air-conditioned and stroller-friendly, with children's and maternity stores, a large Decathlon and a food court. The free Sant Joan de Déu playground sits right next door.
