Les Gens Que J'Aime

I keep coming here for six years. I met this place when I was doing my Erasmus education and since whenever I visited Barcelona, I always visit this amazing red velvet bar. I still in love how this is a hidden gem. Good quality, cocktails with an amazing interior and the bartender gifted my cousin a free shot because it was her birthday and he let us take one of the red roses at the bar so it’s special thanks to him. Highly recommended

Best cocktails I’ve had. Visited several times during our stay. All cocktails were perfect

Had a really disappointing experience as I usually love this bar. When my date and I arrived, the barman welcomed us and directed us to sit on two free armchairs. We had just settled in when a group of five girls walked in. Upon seeing their group size, the barman promptly told us to get up, unfolded a single wooden chair in the corner, and instructed us to sit there—one of us having to stand—so the five girls could take the armchairs (they were not reserved). He was completely rude, unapologetic, and made us feel like we didn’t matter, and just lost two customers for life.

30 minutes to get a menu and another 30 minutes to get your drinks... While the bartenders are chatting to female clientele, most of the tables were waiting a long time for their drinks. Add 1-2 fast guys to your staff to help seat people and make sure drinks go out on time and you can double your revenue per table. 3 beers and a moscow mule shouldn't take half an hour.

Nice atmosphere but the cocktails were disappointing. One of the worst Whisky Sour i had. The menu is nothing interesting. I was asking for a penicillin cocktail, they didn't know whats that (in a cocktail bar they should know it). I heard 2 bartenders were telling the a 3rd one always what ingredients he has to put to whick cocktail... come on for 12€ drinks dont learn the ingredients right in front of us. Barcelona is full with really good cocktail places, unfortunately this place is not one of them. I like the design but should improve the quality. Wouldn't return

This is the very definition of a proper bar. Dark, well decorated, usually busy and great cocktails. When I was there the bartender was alone, and it was a bit overwhelming for her to take care of everything and everyone. But the drinks were delicious.

The cocktail were a great 10/10. I will come back with pleasure. Best cosmo in town !!

romantic bar that feels like taking a step back into time. Cozy vibe and great cocktails

Fantastic dark Speakeasy style basement bar. Loaded with red velvet Sofas and tons of atmosphere. The bar itself is small and the toilets are treacherous to reach but it's one of my favorite bars in the world. 1930s short animated cartoons that used to be broadcast in one corner. But Life Goes On.

A lovely French style bar/speakeasy vibe found near Passeig de Gracia. Fantastic cocktails, and service isn't bad but the night we visited only one bartender was on duty and it was slow. Capacity is fairly limited so try to reserve a table if you can.

Quirky little bar. Intimate and romantic. Bartenders fast but didn't know how to make a sazerac. Will go again when in town great late night.

This was one of my favorite bars in Barcelona - it's easy to miss because it's half underground so we walked past it twice but I'm glad we finally got it together and went in. It felt like I was going back in time and was transported into a weird 1920s expressionist movie. Every part of it was pretty cool, and there were plenty of cozy corners and regular corners too. Maybe there was chex mix? I dunno; but the toilet had a pull the cord flusher: lame bucket list item ch-ch-checked.

Super cute place, very old school Barcelona ! I love the relaxing vibe here and the wonderful decorations ! Will be back !

This bar is Parisian themed with a downstairs entry way. Cool at first. Silent Charlie Chaplin films are projected on the wall close by. Dark and cozy. But and here's the BUT, the drinks are horrible! On a scale of 1 - 5.... I rate them a -2 Just go Boca Chica near by.

Underground bar with low lighting and a vivid crowd chatting and sipping on special concoctions. Upscal-ish, with a vintage/artistic vibe. Gypsy lady can read your cards for a small fee and staff is super friendly. Enjoy!

Great cocktails Friendly staff Eclectic decor + a fortune teller every now and again What else do you need?

Great little bar hidden away under a building in eixample. All dim lighting, low ceilings and friendly service. Don't expect really fancy cocktails, just good drinks and a great atmosphere. We had a cava and old fashioned for about €12.50

Maybe I'm too quick to judge. Here are my first impressions: Good: + Atmosphere, interior. Not so good: - Uninspiring menu. I was looking for something new, something exciting, but no luck. - I ordered an Old Fashioned. By far the worst Old Fashioned I ever had. Where was the Angostura? The sugar? The whisky taste? The citrus taste and aroma? Basically it was a diluted sparkling water.

Hats off to Lena K. and Sheera G. I would never have learned of this place if it weren't for you and this was my favorite drinking spot on my recent trip to Barcelona. It was a few blocks up from my hotel just off of Passeig de Gracia, just past the Egyptian Museum of Barcelona. If you're not looking for it, you will walk right past it as it's though two small double doors and down a staircase. This place retains charm and decor from the 40s or 50s and lots of cool memorabilia adorn the walls. There are lots of plush arm chairs to settle into to hear the jazz music piping through amidst the low light, or you can try to grab a seat at the small bar but it gets mighty packed on weekends. They mix some wicked cocktails or you can settle for a beer if that's your thing. Regardless you'll want to stay for a while and just soak up the intimate atmosphere because it just invites you to linger. I was only in Barcelona two and half days and I made it here twice. My second visit here was my last stop of the night of my final evening in Barcelona, which was a Sunday night. The crowd was thinning out and I got the chance to meet and speak with Adrian, who is the owner's son. We had some cool conversation, and when the last of the patrons left, he busted out his harmonica and sang the blues for me. I LIVE for stuff like this and this is why I travel. Alas, Adrian's Dad showed up and it was time to close up (probably for the best since i had an early flight back the next morning). In any case, memories I will never forget and an awesome place to come have a drink or two. If you are visiting Barcelona, PLEASE come check this place out, it is one of the best spots in town.

A perfect speakeasy place to tuck into for a cozy nightcap. Great drinks, sexy lighting and tarot readings on the spot.

My absolute favorite and best kept secret bar in Barcelona. Opens at 7pm and closes around 3am. Diego is amazing. He makes drinks like no other. A true master of his craft. Ambiance is a very chill and mingle, old but hip vibe. Charlie Chaplain movies play on a projector. Highly recommends any signature drink they make.

Had a lovely albeit short time here last night. It was near empty when we landed and filled up by the time we finished the drink. The two people at the bar had their hands full and that reflected in the service they could offer. I could return just for the ambience alone.

Fantastic hidden hole in the wall. You'll walk right by and not even knows what lies beneath: a classic cocktail bar with an intimate vibe. The atmosphere is really a special one. Come for the cocktails and jazz, stay for the people you meet.

Dark and cozy place for drinks. Can be very romantic and a fun place to hang out with friends. It's kinda hidden away and reminded me of a dark and intimate garden apartment. I would visit this establishment again. I liked the comfortable sofas that you can snuggle on and enjoy some quality time with someone you really like.

We walked by this place twice looking for it! Once we found the door and peeked inside, we knew we found a hidden treasure. It's dimly lit, intimate, with dark-red couches and chairs and funky lamps and old-time photos. There were several couples gazing into each other's eyes, talking and sipping on drinks. It was very contagious, and we spent several hours there. I don't think they serve any food. There was a Tarrot reading table in a corner.

Whiskey sour here was amazing! A cozy place with good cocktails and service. We stumbled upon this place but really enjoyed our visit.
