  • Review this attraction
  • 1. La Fira

    Decked out in vintage fair-ground memorabilia, this striking bar rates high on novelty factor. Order a cuba libre while swaying in a swing. Lively atmosphere, unique setting.

  • 2. Satanassa

    A mixed crowd – from drag queens to students – congregates at this small club/bar. The music is eclectic, the decor wonderfully tacky, with kitsch erotic statues.

  • 3. El Otro Lado

    This über-designed space is a magnet for a young hip crowd. There are regular exhibitions and the low-key music makes it a conversation-friendly place.

  • 4. Nick Havanna

    A classic designer spot with some outré toilets and a fabulous cow-skin upholstered bar. The crowd is mostly yuppie and moneyed.

  • 5. Velvet

    Large, popular and populist disco bar with lavish decor, luxury fittings and music ranging from Elvis to Abba.

  • 6. Luz de Gas

    A classic late-night watering hole, this half concert hall, half bar has live music nightly – from blues to jazz and soul.

  • 7. Ideal

    Luxurious cocktail lounge opened by legendary barman José María Gotarda in the 1950s and now run by his son. More than 80 varieties of whisky.

  • 8. La Bodegueta

    This unassuming basement bodega has become a major pre-party meeting point. Famously good anchovies.

  • 9. Medusa

    Strictly gay and one of the hits in the booming “gayxample”. Elegant, tasteful and ultra fashionable, with excellent house sounds.

  • 10. Les Gens que j’Aime

    The ideal place to have a drink, to the accompaniment of soft music, after walking around Paseo de Gràcia and Rambla Catalunya.
