Top 5 Cocktail Bars in Spain

C. de Lope de Vega, 30, Centro, 28014 Madrid, Spain

“The best bar we visited in Madrid! The man who served us and told us about the Mexican culture and idea of the "potions" was so nice and spoke great English! The cocktails were tasty and were around €10-14 each. The cocktails come with pendants which indicate how they will help you- the Lucky Strike cocktail was delicious.”

Av. de las Playas, 41, 35510 Puerto del Carmen, Las Palmas, Spain

“We were welcomed to our promised promenade view table after paying £50 for Hogmanay night. This included our first cocktail. We also had a couple of bottles of fizz which were topped up by the staff. Lovely environment and a touch of class. Cheers”

Carrer de Sant Joan, 3, Centre, 07012 Palma, Illes Balears, Spain

“Top food and top service. We had an excellent beef, very well prepared according to our request. We also tried a local red wine from the northern part of Mallorca based on the waiter’s recommendation, and it was perfect. This place is highly recommended.”

Pl. de Cuchilleros, 11, Centro, 18009 Granada, Spain

“Although located in a very touristic part of the city, this is a place that gives you an experience as if you belong here like a local. The tapas, the drinks and the experience was like no other and I love this hidden space in Granada. They opened up at 7.30 and by 8.15 the place was full! Will definitely come here again.”

Passatge de Josep Llovera, 7, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, 08021 Barcelona, Spain

“A warm welcome, and had a tour with a very kind hostess, in different rooms and floors...originaly decorated and unique for us. great, professional service 🥰.... the place is full of interesting details and a lot of love built in during decorating...you are simply a way from every day vibe!”

Carrer d'Aribau, 154, L'Eixample, 08036 Barcelona, Spain

“Absolutely loved this place. Had insanely cheap drinks and it was pour your own alcohol for 3.5 for a cup. I got a vodka lime drink and could pour my own amount of vodka for 3.5. Good place to pregame for sure”

C. de las Huertas, 55, Centro, 28014 Madrid, Spain

“Trocha el lugar de La caipirihna was founded in 1979!!! Still one of the coziest bars in Huertas with great drinks, ambiance and tunes! And oh the seats are definitely very comfy!”

C/ de Joaquín Costa, 33, Ciutat Vella, 08001 Barcelona, Spain

“Beautiful old place with art nouveau decor and tons of liquor in the gorgeous wood bar. Dark and intimate feeling, quiet. The place went from empty to full right at 6pm. Very comfortable place to hang out and have a few drinks. Feels like it's been around forever -- which indeed it has: old stone walls and marble floors, note the bar seems to extend past the exterior wall! Some of the best people-watching in El Raval. I'd be happy to go back!”

“Amazing cocktails, excellent service and ambiance”

“Cracking little bar! Pretty much spot on for everything - it has a nice buzzy vibe and cool decor, with a horseshoe shaped bar, the drinks are great, well balanced and delicious cocktails - what I like is that they aren't going too crazy with them, just classics with a twist. I loved the peanut old fashioned and the clover club was ordered several times too! They have an above average wine selection, with even a handful of international wines. We had a couple of different fresh whites that were nice enough, balanced with minerality. And the food is nice too! I'd recommend the pork (pluma ibérica), really delicious, and the bravas de Chamberí, pollycooks style potatoes, sliced and fried, as well as the anchoas. The leeks were a tad disappointing but still enjoyable and whilst the beef sandwich was tasty, the bread it was in was of low quality. Fun tapas too - I loved the peanuts and dark chocolate paired with my peanut old fashioned. The service is a little chaotic but eager and friendly too so I'll let them off. I'm looking forward to my next visit - we didn't have time but I'll be back to try the tiramisu cocktail. 🤙”

Carrer de Salvà, 3, Sants-Montjuïc, 08004 Barcelona, Spain

“My favourite gay bar of all the ones we visited in Barcelona. Super welcoming to all. We have been to some other gay places in the city and have always felt a little unwelcome as lesbians. Most are obviously just for gay men, even if they say they are LGBT-friendly for everyone. Here was such a breath of fresh air. They mean it. Bartenders were totally awesome. Extremely cool and friendly, and stylish too! The vibes were just so kind and casual. Again, the majority of patrons are gay men here too, but they are welcoming to lesbians and everyone else. Everybody gets a smile. Maybe that is why everyone in there is also in a good mood. No bad vibes, no judgement. Drinks are a bit pricey for what you get, but most LGBT spaces are. At least here they pour heavy and the atmosphere is so good. It makes it worth the money. It's still cheaper than many of the other LGBT bars we went to. And there's free bar snacks, and this has been the only place ever that has asked if there are any nut or gluten allergies before serving them! We don't have any, but it was a really nice touch. The space is deceptively big. From the outside, it seems like a tiny narrow bar, but there is a back lounge and a space for drag shows and music performances. Would definitely come back here over and over for some drinks and good times. And honestly, any bar where one of the bartenders wears a Sailor Moon t-shirt is automatically 5 stars. ;)”

“Galileo was recommended by a friend of ours who is a renowned chef in the UK, and it did not disappoint. It’s a beautifully contemporary venue with a mixology lab on-site. We enjoyed five cocktails, each perfectly mixed, and we ordered four dishes from the food menu all of which could have been produced by the kitchen in a high-end restaurant. Andrea looked after us - always with a smile. His knowledge and passion shine through and the attentive service makes each guest feel special.”

Pg. de Gràcia, 53, L'Eixample, 08007 Barcelona, Spain

“Beautiful place and great food 🥘 Good table service and attentive staff Great location We recommend groups also to dine here as it’s too spacious !! Love from 🇬🇷🇰🇪”

Carrer de la Rutlla, 70, 17002 Girona, Spain

“Mexican food, just the way you hope to get it. Loved the Taco Camarón!”

C/ de Muntaner, 108, L'Eixample, 08036 Barcelona, Spain

“I’d give Sips 4.5 stars. The drinks are very good and unique. The service is okay. The atmosphere was too loud for our liking and the tables are very close together. It’s hard to hear one another and too easy to hear the conversation next to you. I appreciate that you can make a reservation, but also think they can do a better job of giving you a last call for one more round of drinks before your time is up.”
