El Celler de Can Roca has warned of the existence of a website that impersonates the restaurant in Girona and is not part of its official channels. The page in question, cellerdecanroca.info, was still active when the notice was disseminated.
The warning comes at a particularly sensitive time for customers, as the restaurant does not ask for any payment to formalize a reservation. This is the friction that has led to the public alert, as the brand of one of Girona's best-known establishments is being used from an external channel to capture access and potential user data.
Jordi Roca asked that no one access the fraudulent website
Jordi Roca, the establishment's pastry chef, disseminated the notice through Instagram. In his message, he showed the page in question and issued a direct warning to users not to enter that site.

The restaurant emphasized that the only official website is www.cellercanroca.com. Furthermore, it asked customers not to share personal data or make payments on unauthorized pages.
Josep Roca also disseminated the alert through Instagram stories, with the aim of preventing customers from going to unofficial channels to try to manage their reservations.
Reservations open eleven months in advance at midnight
The restaurant's usual system opens reservations eleven months in advance. This period is activated at midnight on the first day of each month, a key detail to distinguish the official procedure from any external page.
Diari de Girona confirmed that the fraudulent website was active at the time of the alert. The establishment insists that it does not require any payment to make a reservation, so any financial request outside of its official channel is outside its operations.
The only valid address to process a reservation is www.cellercanroca.com, while the calendar opens eleven months in advance at midnight on the first day of each month.
