Barcelona is not only a city of architectural wonder, amazing beaches, and a Mediterranean flair all its own, it’s a city with a vibrant nightlife. “If ever there was a time to do a bar crawl in Barcelona, that time is now,” says the Financial Times. “The city’s bar scene is currently experiencing an explosion of creativity.”
With over 30 million people visiting Barcelona each year, this is not the place to visit if you’re seeking a secluded European getaway. Let’s dive into some great options to explore in Barcelona to wine and dine.
Des bars avec une histoire et une personnalité
Begin your Barcelona crawl with Bar Boadas, the city’s oldest cocktail bar. The art deco throwback—famous for its martinis–was established in 1933 and is an “ideal start-of-the-night venue,” according to the World’s Best Bars website.
Next, hit up Two Schmucks, a “five-star dive bar,” says The Financial Times. “Hidden away down a backstreet in the boisterous El Raval, this tavern-like drinking den does high spirits and great cocktails mixed by tattooed guys and girls who ooze unself-conscious cool.” Come for the punk vibes and irreverent charm, raves World’s Best Bars website, and stay for the top-rate drinks.
You won’t be able to leave Barcelona without memorizing the name Antoni Gaudi who had a tremendous impact on Barcelona and its locals. The masterpiece church is the crown jewel of Gaudi’s works and is a symbol of Barcelona making it the perfect place for an adventure with Sagrada Familia Closing Time Experience: Evening Light & Rooftop Views where you can get a 360-degree view of the magnificent Sagrada Familia from a nearby panoramic rooftop to the hallowed interior on a peaceful evening. Here you can enjoy a relaxing, hassle-free visit with guaranteed access after the crowds have cleared out and get your first glimpse of the legendary basilica as you sip a crisp glass of cava. Watch the sun set inside the church through the intricate stained-glass windows- a breathtaking sight you will never forget.
Bars branchés avec du flair et quelque chose de différent
Get your rock and roll on at Bar Ramón, established in 1939. This neighborhood bar with a very 1950s vibe, offers signature dishes and classic tapas from croquettes to garlic shrimp. It’s a place to fuel up without breaking your bank.
Come to Paradiso for the friendly bartenders but stay for the drinks. This is not your typical bar; it is “hidden behind a fridge door inside a pastrami shop in the trendy El Born neighborhood,” says Conde Nast Traveler. The drinks here may take a while to make, but you’ll find it’s well worth the wait, and there are 15 new cocktails from which to try
Dîner dans les meilleurs restaurants de Barcelone
Barcelone possède des restaurants étonnants qui attirent les gourmets les plus exigeants. Essayez le toit de Casa Luz. Les nombreux rooftops de la ville ne sont généralement connus que pour leurs bars, mais ce restaurant est une trouvaille douce et rare.

Gala opened in 2021 and is now the restaurant “to see and be seen in Barcelona,” adds Forbes, which notes its “Alice-in-Wonderland-meets-psychedelic amusement park ambiance.” The restaurant boasts an interior patio that’s the perfect spot on warm nights. Over-the-top cocktails are available along with seasonal tapas and raw fish. After dinner, head down to the basement for some nightclub action.

Although Barcelona is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in Spain, places like Gracia still exist. This neighborhood, just a stone’s throw from the bustling center, feels a world away. That’s because it used to be its own village and has held onto those roots even more than a century after being swallowed up by Barcelona’s urban sprawl. For the true Catalan experience of hole-in-the-wall gems serving up home-cooked classics and regulars-only bodegas, you cannot do any better than Gracia-and on this fun-filled food tour, we will show you where to find the best of the best.
