    Exceptional Liquors here
    Willow R.

    This was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed our evening Bruno is a tremendous bartender and every drink was incredible. I don't usually drink old fashions but when they are this good, you drink whatever Bruno tells you to. Every person in our group had different tastes and Bruno was able to take a lead from each person and customize a cocktail just for them. To say we had fun was an understatement. I would highly recommend this bar to travelers looking for a cozy environment. We went early and had the bar to ourselves except for two other wonderful gentlemen who are now good friends. We may need to come back on this trip!

    If you enjoy Bourbon neat or in cocktails you should come here. Eric is a master Bartender and will quickly dial you into a cocktail you will enjoy. Small place has that speakeasy feel to it did not expect to find in Barcelona. From America you will be blown away. Enjoy. Great place.

    Based on 4 visits (3 during the most recent Barcelona trip). We never go back to bars that many times. So, the fact we came here so many times is meaningful. We passed up the chance to hit top 50/100 bars in the world for multiple times in order to come back here. As the many reviews mention...very small. Loud when full. Not super comfortable seating. Mixed crowd of locals and ex-pats. Extensive cocktail menu but they are definitely famous for their gin & tonics as well as creative drinks in funky vessels. We found the bartenders to be very friendly for as busy as they are. 3 times, I've had their blue-cheese G&T, made with roquefort cheese-infused gin. A-maz-ing. Tried an actual Old Fashioned one night and it was good--but not awesome like the blue cheese G&T. Based on the bar and the neighborhood, I highly recommend a stop here when you're in Barcelona. It's memorable and enjoyable.

    Simply amazing. Well done cocktail lounge with all the intricacies that speak easy places have with their drinks. I had their Bloody Mary which was more sweet than spicy. It was the sweetest bloody mary I have ever had, but was great. Also asked for a smoky and spicy drink which fit the bill!! Take a look at the photos for the presentation of that drink. They have light fare food which is quite nice as well. Enjoy one of their drinks and I would be surprised if you were disappointed!!

    Fire On The Bayou! Unbelievable!

    If you truly want to feel like you're going back in time and desire EXCEPTIONAL cocktails, first class service, complete attentiveness - and have a full selection of themed drinks that are to die for - or regular classics, I could not recommend any other establishment more. Well over the top! We were treated with warmth - at the very time we entered this super cute, cozy establishment. Old Fashioned - we will never forget you! Don't question about heading here. You wont regret it! The bartenders are 1000% on point!

    Great play for classic and "artisan" cocktails. Totally enjoyed our visits.

    AMAZING bartending here! Seriously, this little place blew us away. I would go as far to say this is the best cocktail bar I've ever been to. Atmosphere is relaxed and sexy, the bartenders wear suspenders and the music is great. The drinks were wonderful start to finish.

    Where do I even begin? I searched "Best Cocktail Bars" in/around Barcelona, and Old Fashioned popped up first - and deservingly so. It's a total ex-pat bar, so don't come here looking for a "local Barcelona vibe" but definitely come here if you like great cocktails (especially whiskey)! Seriously, this may be my favorite bar in Barcelona. Now, on to the drinks. The drinks are insane. They are hand crafted and absolutely amazing. Every drink is so unique, including the glassware. You need to make sure you get a seat at the bar, or at least watch as your drink is being carefully made. The drinks aren't too strong, so you can definitely stay awhile and sample one of many. I opted for the Japanese Democracy, which I immediately enjoyed because of the soft sweetness. Next up, the Femme Fatal - equally yum. I rounded out with a coconut milk drink that came in an actual glass shaped milk carton. The attention to detail is so awesome! They have something for everyone in their extensively fun menu. The bar is small and intimate, so don't plan to come here with a large group, but just plan to come here when you're in Barcelona, because it's easily one of the top bars in the city.

    Amazing drinks, cozy little bar in barcelona. The presentation and performance are just next level here. You won't regret stopping by if you're here on vacation.

    Best place to get a low-key drink in Barcelona. It is down a small alley that does not seem to get much traffic, and taxi drivers get lost trying to get you there. I recommend the L3 or L5 Metro to the Diagonal stop and then walking the rest. After checking out many bars over the past few years, this is the one that we return to. They have a nice selection of gins, scotches, bourbons and ryes, as well as a menu of house cocktails. They will suggest something based on your tastes, and I've had great luck doing that. The bartenders dress nicely and put on a good show. More importantly, the drinks are also exceptional. I don't speak much Spanish, but, if it is a deciding factor for you, rest assured that these guys speak good English (it's *great* when compared to my Spanish) It feels more like a neighborhood bar, but I have seen many tourists there as well. I'd suggest going in a small group (2-4) and sitting at the bar if you can. Seating is definitely limited. Two important notes: they don't take music requests and you must drink your drinks inside the bar.

    Such a welcoming bar! Just enjoyed some drinks and met some friendly people from the Bay Area who moved to Barcelona. First off the drinks here are super tasty! Bruno knows how to fine tune a drink to your liking. Love the playlist during our time there and the drinks were on point.

    Amazing cocktails!
    Clari C.

    This place is one of those places that you will never forget! From a very unique ambiance and service to the most amazing cocktails you will ever have. The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. Plus the bartender puts on a show every time he is making a new drink, fascinating! Without a doubt this place is top three on my favorite cocktails bars ever visited!

    Cool little place for tapas. We had the La Pepita which was steak with bashed potatoes, deep fried…read moreeggplant, calamari with Kim chi sauce, pan con tomato, and a much needed green salad! Service was excellent even though they were super busy even at opening time at 1:00p. Reservations highly recommended!

    Wandering around Gràcia in late August can be a bit of an adventure -- so many local spots close…read morefor holiday that finding a place that's actually open becomes its own challenge. After discovering that our first three choices were all shuttered, we ended up at La Pepita by default. Thankfully, it turned out to be a great find. We stopped in late in the afternoon, when the pace was relaxed but the energy still lively. The space had a fun, casual vibe -- the kind of place that feels effortlessly cool without trying too hard. The service was friendly and quick, and the staff seemed to genuinely enjoy what they do. We ordered a few snacks and drinks, all of which hit the spot. Everything was flavorful, nicely presented, and perfect for sharing. Even though it wasn't quite the dinner rush, there was a steady flow of people, which tells me it's a popular spot year-round, not just a backup when others are closed. Overall, La Pepita was a happy surprise on an August afternoon -- great atmosphere, good food and drinks, and the kind of easygoing charm that makes you want to linger a little longer. Would absolutely go back. 4.5 Stars
