Bar La Llibertària

March 16th, 2012
A wonderful new bar called La Llibertària has just opened in El Raval, Barcelona. The walls are decorated in dozens of original posters, newspapers, drawings and photos from the anarchist history of Barcelona and the Spanish Civil War. It’s a veritable museum. Sergio, one of the cooperative members, is an ex? CNT member whose family history is steeped in anarchism which he’ll happily tell you about – ask him about the photo of his father taking over the factory in 1978.They serve good authentic tapas.
Highly recommended. Will now form part of at least one of my routes.

Best rooftop bar-restaurant in Barcelona

March 26th, 2009

La Miranda Del Museo is my favourite rooftop bar-restaurant in Barcelona. It is located between Barceloneta and the Gothic Quarter in the Palau de Mar, the only building which still survives from Barcelona’s Old Port. The first three floors of the building are taken up by the Museu de Historia de Catalunya. Take the lift up to the fourth floor. Superb views of Barcelona harbour, Montjuic and Tibidabo.

Mediterranean cusine specialised in seafood. A reasonably-priced lunch menu is available during the week. Cafeteria service is also offered during museum hours. A great place to admire the city with a coffee.
