| Bars &
Cafés - Where to find free Wi-Fi |
| |
Getting connected in Barcelona is easy - there are a
host of internet cafés and many of the hotels
and apartments have free wifi. But just in case you're
stuck or want to connect up for free, here's a list
of some of the places that offer it.
We'd urge you not to support the few owners who still
provide this for - buy a drink or a coffee and let your
friends know.
For a full map of the locations below, go to our Barcelona
Update free WIFI map.

La
Clandestina
Baixada
de Viladecols, 2
Tel: 93-319 05 03
FREE WIFI
Describing itself as a "Teteria" (Tea
bar), La Clandestina is a gem in the heart of
the old town.
The decor inside is a middle eastern / north
african mix, with hanging carpets and all sorts
of wall-hung paraphanelia adding to the charm.
Over 20 types of tea are served, along with the
usual coffee, stronger drinks and, for those with
a more adventurous streak, Hookah (hubbly-bubbly)
pipes. The crowd is young and trendy - earlier
in the day you'll find a set crowded over their
laptops, taking advantage the free (and fast)
WIFI. Later it gets more crowded and upbeat.
A gem. |

Café
Milans
Milans,
7
In a small back street in the Barri Gotic, this
is a lovely little local run café bar,
with an assortment of tapas if you fancy a nibble
and free WIFI for customers. |

| El
Raval |

Candela
Hospital,
48
Open: Mon - Sat: 9am - 2.30pm; Closed Sun
Tel: 93-301 08 13
www.candelaraval.com
Grungy and groovy bar, this is everything everything
that is good about the Raval area.
With 'up and coming' local artists' fares spanning the
walls and a huge aerial picture of Raval covering the
space behind the bar, its clear that Candela is revelling
in the regenration of the area into something cool and
trendy. And, because it is here and not 100 yards away
on La Rambla, the prices are still affordable.
Get in while the going is good and take advantage of
the still-free WIFI. |

Carmelitas
Carme,
42
Open: Daily: 1.30pm - 12am; Kitchen: 1.30pm - 4pm &
9pm - 12am
Tel: 93-412 46 84
www.carmelitas.biz
A friendly restaurant / café in the heart of
the Raval area, Carmelitas is open all day for lunch,
coffee and dinner.
The food is, unfortunately, rather unremarkable, and
the portions not terribly generous for the price, but
the bright, open interior and friendly atmosphere does
go some way to offsetting this.
Free WIFI - you will need to ask the staff for the
key. |

Actual
Hotel
Roselló

Tel:93-552 05 50
www.hotelactual.com
FREE WI FI
Head past the front desk and up the stairs on the right
of reception to get to this small hotel cafe with quiet
alcoves where you can relax and catch up emails and
news.
Waitress service is friendly and attentive - ring the
bell on the counter when there is no-one around.
A welcome (cost effective) and more relaxed option
than the upmarket Hotel Omm opposite. |

Laie
Pau
Claris 85 (between Gran Via y Casp)
Mon - Fri 9am - 9.30pm; Sat 10am - 9.30pm
www.laie.es
FREE WIFI - ask for the key at the bar
The Pau Claris version of this bookshop, like the others,
boasts an excellent upstairs café and restaurant.
Unlike many bookstore cafés, this is not a place
to sit and browse the books on the shelves - you have
to buy to take a book upstairs. However, it is an unusually
comfortable and relaxing space to sit and have a coffee
or beer with pastry after shopping or while checking
mail on the free WIFI. |
