  1. A

    Can Paixano

    This lofty old champagne bar has long run on a winning formula. The standard poison is bubbly rosé in elegant little glasses, combined with bite-sized bocadillos (filled rolls). This place is jammed to the rafters, and elbowing your way to the bar to ask harried staff for menu items can be a titanic struggle.

    El Xampanyet

    Nothing much has changed in this, one of the city’s best-known cava bars. Plant yourself at the bar or seek out a table jammed up against the old-style tiled walls for a glass or three of cava and an assortment of tapas, such as the tangy boquerons en vinagre (white anchovies in vinegar).

    Vaso de Oro

    This must be one of the world’s narrowest bars. Fast-talking waiters will serve up a few quick quips with your tapas of grilled gambes or solomillo (sirloin) chunks. Want something a little different to drink? Ask for a flauta cincuenta – half lager and half dark beer.
