Bars, Bites, Barcelona

Two Schmucks is on my top-picks list. Not just because it's one of the world's top bars (#11 best in the world), but it's got a really chilled-out vibe and a hip crowd. Their out-of-the-box cocktail menu is something else. Make sure you try the mozzarella cocktail — it's a total game changer.

Next, there's Boca Chica right in the city center. It's one of those weirdly cool places with its own 'toilet parties' – imagine a DJ on a grand piano inside a bathroom! The mirrored interiors and buzzing crowd make it even more fun. Seriously, it's a one-of-a-kind experience.

Then there's Hemingway - my favorite spot to chill after a busy night. Hidden beneath the streets, it is a quiet spot. They use awkwardly shaped glasses to serve cocktails that not only look good on Instagram but also taste amazing. It's a great way to wrap up your night in Barcelona.

When it's time for a food break, head to Casa Lolea. You’ll love the delicious tapas and the chorizo croquettes. The place has an authentic feel. It's a perfect pit-stop between Two Shmucks and Boca Chica.

Don't miss out on Bodega Biarritz. This small tapas bar is located between Boca Chica and Hemingway. It is known for its bombas, meat-stuffed potato balls, which changed my life!
