Old Fashioned

Barcelona


At this moody, shoebox-sized Gràcia hang-out, creative mixologists smartly outfitted in braces rustle up wildly original reinventions of the classic Old Fashioned, as well as a never-ending line-up of G&Ts.

Sister cocktail bars Hemingway and The Bowery in L'Eixample are also huge hits.
