The definitive travel guide to Barcelona

This bar is reknown for playing some of the best live music in the city. Admittedly the average customer is 30 plus and middle class but do not let this deter you from going to hear some fantastic jazz. Sometimes they play salsa but this bar has the right idea about music, they never play it too loud that it interrupts your conversation, you are perfectly able to socialise whilst listening and yet in no way does the music take a back seat.

The bar has been used for filming a number of times due to its red interior and classic features. It creates a spohisticated and calm atmosphere and is the best place in town to find a mojito. Cocktails are very ordinarily priced at around 6 euros and about the same for a spirit mixer and a beer is about 2,50. The place fills up around midnight so if you are keen to go make sure you get there, and find a table if you can so you can settle in for the night.
