Old Fashioned

La música es inmejorable, rock y blues clásico y esto acompaña a unos cocktailes que no te puedes ir de Barcelona sin probar. Recomendación personal el bowery.

Best Manhattan I’ve had in a very long time! These guys know what they are doing. Even if you try ordering some obscure drink, they’ll know how to make it.

This place was one of my favourite experiences in my 45 days in Europe. I was travelling alone and the boys at the bar were super kind and incredibly welcoming. They made me the best drinks i’ve ever had in my life. Those are some mighty talented and dedicated bartenders. My tip, skip the menu and just tell them what you’re in the mood for, and they will make something spectacular for you. They also gave me some good restaurant recommendations in the neighbourhood and beyond. Bruno, thanks so much for an amazing time. I’ll be back to Barcelona soon to try that paella and steak tartare.

My favorite bar that I visited while I was in Spain. The bartenders here really know their stuff and like to put on a show. If you can find seating at the bar, please do & you’ll thank me later. The drinks may take a bit longer to get to you if you sit on the outside.
Bloody Mary here is one drink you need to try. Personally I love Bloody Mary’s but even for the evil non-​tomato lovers out there, this one just might win you over. Spiced as heavy as you want (they’ll ask you) I had 2 of these that night alone, probably the first and only time I had one while the sun was down.
Had to try the Old fashioned as well, (obviously), they let you pick your own whiskey out of what they have. I went with a rye –my preference and they always make sure to garnish your drinks here. Classy vibe, speakeasy old feel. just my type of bar.

Cocktails están súper buenos pero el bar es demasiado pequeño y hay un ruido horrible. Es imposible hablar con las personas… Solo hemos tomado un cocktail cada uno porque el ruido fue insoportable. Es una lastima porque la calidad de las bebidas y del servicios es muy buena.

Im now in the old fashion. Good staff. Small place. Very good cocktails. Very crowd because the place is small. Nice small bar

Simply awesome, this IS THE PLACE, the cocktails are the best I’ve had, not in Barcelona but anywhere. Don’t miss out on it if you’re visiting.

I stumbled upon this cute mixology bar while walking around Gracia. The bartenders were incredibly friendly and remembered me each night that i returned. A major difference between the states and spain is customer service, which was not lacking at Old Fashioned. The service is superb! There are also a lot of english speakers there if that makes you feel more comfortable :) i will definitely be back on my next trip to Barcelona.

Amazing drinks, vibe, and bartenders. They make you feel comfortable and will make you a drink off the menu or a special one depending on what kind of drink you want. The bartenders put on a great show, and I’m sure you’ll find people to talk to if you go solo (like I did). Definitely make it a spot to visit if you enjoy alcohol!

While I’d like to keep it all to myself it would be selfish. If you like a great G&T get here. That’s all that needs saying.

To be honest it was not what I expected. However, we got there no problem a stones throw from the nearby subway stop. The place is tiny, by tiny I mean there was 5 seats at the bar and three tables enough for 15 or so. It was a two person show, the bartender and the hostess/​waitress.
It has an awesome vibe. The staff is so nice and accommodating. The drinks are superb, literally, unreal. I heard the person next to me say, «hey I’m here because I heard you have the best Old Fashions in Barcelona. The bartender is incredibly talented and he puts on a show for every drink he makes. The feel is great. Great music, awesome, detailed, talented menu made real for all who enter. The staff welcomes everyone with a «hola, hello, welcome.»
Cocktails are from 7 – 10 euro, its worth it, sit down with your friends or significant other, each get two drinks and take in the show. Speak easy type stuff, you know.
Cheers

Great little bar. These guys are not bartenders, they are artist! My wife who usually doesn’t drink really liked their mojitos. This place is the only reason why I will go back to Barcelona. Is a must!

Small and cozy, Old Fashioned is a great little Gin & Tonic bar tucked away in Gracia. The bartenders are very knowledgeable, funny and talented. I’ve had my best ever Gin & Tonic there, and even if you don’t know what you want you can tell them what kind of flavors you’re in the mood for, and they will do the rest!
Great place to go on a date, with a few friends or even alone! The staff there is so wonderful that you can spend a whole evening chatting with them!

Seriously amazing drinks made by supremely talented bartenders. When visiting Barcelona, this bar is a must. I have tried many other bars during my visit all with racing reviews, but I feel like this bar was the only place that merits their phenomenal reviews.

Phenomenal service and drinks. They put so much care into their drinks.

Love love love this bar, definitely one of my faves. Small and cosy, art deco style with films and music of the era playing. The selection of gin from all over the world is to die for and they make amazing G&T, as well as great cocktails. Love and care is put into every drink and it’s fabulous to sit at the bar and watch the drinks being made. This was so good we went back a second night on a short weekend break.

Great experience at this bar with Bruno and Luca. They were so helpful and friendly in terms of recommendations and making a special off the menu drinks based on what I liked. We came in before dinner so there were not many people there. We got to know both bartenders who are the owners. I loved watching them make drinks because you can see the art in the way that they make their drinks. It is always so amazing to see people’s passion in the work that they do even if it is mixing a drink at the bar. The drinks were great. My husbands was able to try different whiskey and scotch. Best old fashion!

Great atmosphere. Excellent cocktails. Wonderful bartenders. Obviously a tourist destination, but laid back and friendly tourists. Midnight Express… so good!

This was such a quaint bar! Great music and old movies in the background:)
The bar tenders make a MEAN bloody mary, but my favourite was the classic G&T with the hibiscus infused gin:) mmmmm!!!

Small bar, but if you arrive before or around 10pm you will probably find a place to sit. It Is down an alley behind Passaig de Gracia. We were greeted almost as soon as we walked in, and handed a menu. They also have free WiFi for tourists who may need it. I had a passion fruit mojito, Japanese democracy, and a south side. You have to try a gin cocktail if you come here, and if you don’t know anything about gin, the bartenders will be happy to help you. The cocktails take on average 5 minutes to make, depending on what you order. That’s the level of care and craft that goes into this speakeasy bar.

Cool little bar with some of the best drinks I have ever had I my life. Family and friends came here for some cocktails, none of us were disappointed.
Our bartender was extremely talented and knowledgable and his drinks were made to perfection. I had two gin and tonics which were easily two of the best I had ever had. I also tried the Bloody Mary, again one of the best around.
This place will not disappoint… Trust me.

Die beste Cocktailbar in Barcelona !
Kellner waren Super nett und die Cocktail Zubereitung ist eine richtige Show und schmecken Super :)
Die Bar ist sehr klein wir wären fast daran vorbei gelaufen aber so gemütlich und im 50s/​60s Stil eingerichtet mit alten Bildern von Barcelona aus dieser zeit.
Selbst ein Kellner und die Musik sind auf das Thema angepasst.
Bester Abend!

El local es muy pequeñito y super original, la decoración muy vintage y los camareros muy atentos. El servicio es bueno y la carta de coctails muy extensa.
Su calidad es muy buena, para tomar una copa por el barrio de Gracia lo recomiendo 100%, el único problema es durante el fin de semana que no cabe ni un alfiler, así que si sois un grupo o quieres un poco de intimidad no es el sitio más adecuado.

Really chill place, Luca was super friendly and the drinks were on point. These guys knows their cocktails and don’t mind putting in the work to make you something special. If you are a cocktail minder you should at least pop in and try a drink or two.

Que gran descubrimiento el Old Fashioned! Gracias a la fiesta Unilocal de la ley seca! Y de cabeza a mi top5 de lugares donde tomar una copa!
Local con una gran decoración, intimo pero cercano a la vez, puedes quedarte en la barra pero tienen un lateral donde poder sentarte y estar con las mesitas.
Los camareros muy profesionales y detallistas, creo que voy a empezar un idilio amoroso con la ginebra gallega Nordés! esa baya de eucalipto le dió un toque… mmm!
Aunque llevo dias intentando averiguar el vino tinto que sirven! se que se llama Maya y es del 2012, poco más… habrá que hacer un esfuerzo e ir a hacerles una visita, digo yo! :-)
(Actualizo a 17÷01÷14)
Nos acercamos el otro dia, y el vino se llama LAYA! xD DO Almansa… por una sola letra y yo volviéndome loco xD

Estuve en la pasada fiesta de Unilocal el 20nov y quedé encantada, el local es pequeñito y acogedor, los chicos que lo llevan un encanto, les brota la profesionalidad en cada cocktel. Volveremos seguro!

Un bar que tiene de pequeño lo tiene de interesante. Un bar atendido por gente maja que sabe, como es debido, preparar bien cócteles y Gin Tonics deliciosos. Obviamente está ambientado al estilo Old Fashioned, de hecho me podría haber quedado por horas porque proyectaban esa obra maestra que es El Padrino en una pantalla.

Un lugar muy acogedor donde poder conversar agusto a la vez que escuchas musica en vivo! Rotundamente recomendado clandestino martini, no te dejará indiferente!

Si algo no le falta a Gracia son sitios con encanto. Muestra de ello es esta pequeña y acogedora coctelería donde dos amigos italianos han juntado sus esfuerzos para ofrecer un espacio donde la gente pueda pasar ratos agradables y beber algunos de los mejores cócteles de la ciudad. El sitio es elegante pero a la vez informal, y solo con el vaso donde me sirvieron la bebida pude ver la calidad del lugar.
La decoración está inspirada en los años 20 y tienen fotos en blanco y negro de la Ley Seca, imágenes de Barcelona de hace un siglo… hasta un teléfono súper antiguo y auténtico.
Tienen una completísima carta de cócteles y gins, y ofrecen ofertas súper atractivas dependiendo del día de la semana:
— De lunes a jueves de las 19h a las 20h gins de Bombay, Seagrams o Beefeater a 5,50 euros.
— Los viernes preparan un aperitivo cortesía de la casa al «modo italiano» que ponen por la barra para que picotees mientras te tomas tu copa preferida.
— Los jueves es la «ladies night», y cuando las chicas pidan una copa de las que aparece en la carta con un Cúpido dibujado tendrán descuento.
— Retransmiten todos los partidos importantes y tienen cositas para picar como embutidos, focaccias…
Y hasta aquí que yo sepa, pero seguro que tienen muchas más sorpresas. A mi desde luego el sitio me conquistó y creo que me verán por allí bastante a menudo :)
