Bars/Nightlife

located on the Carrer Sant Pau, opened in 1820 and looks like it hasn't been changed much since then. The place is usually crowded as people pack themselves in to enjoy the bohemian ambiance. The bar is known as a place to drink some absinthe, a powerful drink popular when the bar first opened its doors. A slotted spoon, a sugar cube and small bottle of water are served with your order of absinthe to facilitate the ritual of drinking the liquor. This involves placing the sugar cube on the spoon, dipping it into the absinthe, lighting it on fire and then extinguishing it with the bottle of water so that the sugar drips down into the drink. Carrer de Sant Pau, 65 (Old Town, Ramblas)

http://palaudalmases.com/home/en/ At the heart of La Ribera neighborhood, the oldest part of the city. Without a doubt, the Dalmases Palace is one of the most awesome and hidden places to make your trip worth.

Dingy, small, sweaty, crowded, loud...Moog is a good place to get down and dirty, on a typically light-starved rabbit warren passage of a street in El Raval. Downstairs, fierce electronic music plays to a non-conformist crowd. Weekends are good, but Mondays and Thursdays are often the best nights. (Techno Music) Arc del Teatre 3 (Old Town)

Barrios

Located in the heart of Barcelona‘s Old Town, in one of the city’s most popular neighborhoods commonly known as ‘El Born,’ the Passeig del Born is one of the main routes through the area and dates back to the 13th century. Today, the area is popular with tourists and locals alike and is home to many independents shops, cafés, and restaurants. The area commonly known as ‘El Born‘ is in fact just a small part of the wider neighborhood known as Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i La Ribera, and more specifically, part of the ‘La Ribera‘ quarter, which means ‘The Shore.’ The area’s name refers back to the time before the 16th century when the Barceloneta neighborhood did not yet exist, and La Ribera was a wealthy neighborhood located on the seafront. The lower part of the area eventually became known as ‘El Born‘ in reference to the market known as ‘Mercat del Born‘ located on Carrer del Comerç. The market was inaugurated in 1847 and was the main market of the area until 1920, when it became the central fruit and vegetable market for the entire city of Barcelona. For a slightly more sophisticated slice of Barcelona's nightlife, the equally pretty, but slightly less touristy, El Born is also very central and here you'll find all manner of trendily-attired nightowls crowding into cafes and bars - especially in the district's heart, the Passeig del Born. Check out Miramelindo and Cactus Bar for two reliable faves, or trawl the backstreets to find hidden hotspots like Coppelia Club or weird and wonderful surprises like Cat Bar.
