The staff insisted they use 6cl of gin in each drink -- but honestly, it tasted like tonic water with little to no gin at all. For a place branding itself as a gin bar, this was extremely disappointing. The drinks were weak, overpriced for what we received, and the experience felt misleading. Sadly, I would not recommend this place if you actually expect a proper gin & tonic.

I came around 5pm on a Saturday, and it only took 20 minutes to get in. The bartenders were super friendly and spoke english which was a bonus. Their menu is constantly changing, so I forget the names of the drinks we ordered, but I also ordered a regular old fashion and they nailed it. I noticed another guest being a little rude to one of the bartenders. She was complaining about her drink so they made a new one, and another one after that. Had it been me, I probably would've gave up and asked them to leave lol, but they did not. Instead the opposite, which is very telling of the type of service you'll receive at this place. Overall this was my favorite cocktail bar in Spain, would I go again? Absolutely!

"How did they make this taste like that?" But for enjoying some twists on craft cocktail making? Not so great. Despite a wall full of both rare and classic bottles, most of what's featured on the menu is...eccentric at best. I had two after discussion with the bartender, and both were okay but not what I would enjoy drinking despite having a very broad palate. Although famously ranked by "50 best", this is a lot different than other cocktail bars on that list (I've visited quite a few of them), including the others in Barcelona. Perhaps having hit the number one spot before, they didn't know where to go from there? Nice staff but also missing was bartender banter (at least in English) I've found at most top bars - the bar experience is heavily about that interaction, especially for the solo customer. A positive - drinks are actually cheaper than fancy hotel bars in this city. What they offer *would* be great as a liquid tasting menu and I would return for that. But for full sized cocktails? Meh. Hence the 3 stars. Save it for a date or a "famous bars" crawl, but not for having delicious drinks that tickle the palate while getting the job done.

This place has terrible service. Not at all close to having a drink experience . We had a…read morereservation at 8pm and there was no welcome. To pay $10 per reservation per person is not worth it. No music, lights were flickering the carpets are disgusting, seemed like it was closing down. Drinks were watered down, they didn't have enough sky fall (dinosaur) heads. We received all our drinks at different times and the last three was served an hour later after we ordered.

I like Vodka and sweet drinks, so they made me a cocktail with vodka infused with strawberries, crushed strawberries and squeezed lemon juice. The second one was black vodka, red vodka, blackberries and raspberries... both were A-MA-ZING! The bar is decorated really nicely, it's like you're entering an alchemists lab! But it's really small.. must fit around 20 people max. Try to get there before 12am and you'll be fine.

Amazing server, raised in Mexico and worked for Disney in the USA, fabulously hospitable. We wanted a chill place to enjoy a very light dinner, and The Rooftop was perfect. We had non alcoholic ginger beer (Fever Tree label) and hot tea, hummus with beautiful baby carrots, olives, and a salad of diced cucumbers, tomatoes, and a pinch of fresh mint. When it started to rain the servers quickly belied us move to a table under the canopy. Space heaters were nice. We could see one of the Gaudi buildings from our lovely rooftop venue. After dinner we went to the bottom floor, which was full of folks enjoying themselves, playing pool, visiting. Great place.
