Popular Bars in Barcelona
La Chapelle
This small space is packed with personality, mainly because you can hardly see the walls for religious artifacts and decorations. La Chapelle is certainly quirky, a place like no other in the city to enjoy cocktails with an equally quirky crowd. Drinks are reasonably priced, so the bar space is always busy, creating a cosy feel inside. Out on the terrace you can get some air and watch the night unfold.
Priscilla Cafe
Pricilla is located in the heart of Eixample, offering all your favourite things about a Barcelona gay night out all in one place. There's plenty to eat, delicious drinks to sample, and spectacular drag shows to watch. For a more relaxed experience, grab a coffee and just sit back and enjoy the music. As the name suggests, Priscilla Cafe is designed to make you feel like the Queen of the Desert, with unique decoration and a fabulous fun atmosphere.
The Black Room
The Black Room is a weekly Sunday dance club hosted at Club City Hall, attracting a loud, masculine, and super cruisy crowd. The venue is huge, spread over three floors and including a large dance floor, outdoor terrace, and of course the dark room.

Boyberry
Boyberry is one of the more laid-back men-only cruising clubs in Barcelona, where you can go for some casual cruising and a few drinks. There are lots of different play areas to explore, plenty of cabins, and adult videos playing around the venue. Boyberry even has an on-site adult shop, so it's well worth a visit no matter the time of day.
