Four Bars for a Night Out
There’s a bar on every corner in Barcelona. Some are better than others. The thirst for night life is so strong in Spain that almost any night of the week one will find friends sipping mojitos in small taverns, clubs, and bars around town. Here are just a few:
1-Red Club
In my favorite neighborhood, Barceloneta, the Red Club is on Joan Borbó street along the port. This is a restaurant and bar with funk on Thursday nights.
Info:
Tuesday – Sunday : 7pm to 3am
Passeig Joan Borbó, 78
Barceloneta
2-Espai Barroc
In the Borne gothic zone in the lower part of Palau Dalmases (a square) is this venue for drinks and classical music. After all, Barcelona is not all Indy and pop music. Espai Barroc offers something different and sophisticated.
Info:
Wednesday-Saturday: 8pm to 2am
Montcada, 20
El Borne
3-Diobar
Here’s a unique bar and restaurant with an eclectic style all its own. Also in El Borne barrio, this is a good spot to start the night with a couple drinks.
Info:
Thursday-Saturday: 10pm to 3am
Av. Del Marquès de Argentera, 27
El Born
4-Club Mix
This is a design club offering private parties, live music, great food and a central location. It closes at 3am, so it’s not a club in the full sense of staying open all night.
Info:
Monday-Sunday: 8pm to 3am
Comerç, 21
Arc de Triomf/ Eixample
