Couldn’t find another travel thread that covers Barcelona. What’s good, folks? I’ve compiled a list of beer places (there’s a Mikkeller bar! And BierCab looks amazing) but will accept all recommendations. Also, I will have a small baby in tow - will this limit where we can go? I’m told the Spanish are very child friendly, but having been kicked out of two pubs in the UK due to their licensing, I’m worried we won’t be allowed in anywhere if the rules are a bit different.
Looking forward to BierCab, Don’t suppose you spotted any prams in there? At the very least I’m hoping we can spend an afternoon bar hopping, even if we’ll be limited in the evening.
bump - anyone got any more recommendations? I’ll be in Barca from tomorrow, obviously gonna hit all the beer spots but any other food/underrated touristy things to do?
I’ve got a recommendation, I recommend you spell it properly pal - it’s Barça
Note: this is not my actual opinion. However, a ‘Barça’ supporting plastic fan at an old work place used to pretend to get really wound up by this. He was a dick. Hope you have a good trip
I was there a few weeks ago, you don’t actually get a decent view of the city unless you go into the castle which is about €5 I think. There’s nothing much in the castle, you’re essentially paying for the view but it is very nice. To get up there you need to take the funicular (can use a metro ticket) and then the cable car. From the cable car station you can walk along to the Olympic stadium and there’s some nice parks too.
This was to @badmanreturns obviously I don’t need to tell you that.
There’s a little side street with bars all next to each other, one is called Sub Rosa, another Nevermind and there’s a couple of others. I don’t know if it’s everyday but at least on sundays they all have happy hours at around 5/6ish and sell mojitos for about €2.
That Gopal vegan place is round the corner too, that whole square (or triangle as I think they call it) has loads of vegan/veggie places that are good.
