Boadas was first described to us as "the best cocktail bar in Barcelona - maybe the world" and we can see why.
Just off the usually tourist-ravaged La Rambla, if you
didn't know about this place you wouldn't give it a
second look. It is a tiny, old bar with no windows and
just a few seats set around the edge. But it just feels
like it knows what it is doing when it comes to cocktails
- sort of like the Grandfather of cocktail bars. Run
by the daughter of the original owner and staffed by
knowledgeable waiters behind the bar (no waitress service
here) there is no menu or list - just ask for what you
want and, in all likelihood, they will know it.
Definitely well worth a visit - although from our experience, the "house cocktail" of the night is only for the adventurous. |
