Excellent place for sit in an indoor/outdoor garden in the middle of the city, just a simple coffee or a jag of beer. They also have fantastic show and music things happening, its one of the 1st places i visit in Barcelona, its a very nice experience ! Its always to come with a group of people sit down and enjoy calm ! Barcelona weather is perfect for places like this !

The Antic Theater in Sant Pere is an awesome place with a great bar that is perfect for hanging out before, during and after shows. It’s not that easy to find, so make sure that your give yourself enough time to get lost before meeting your friends for a few ales. It’s literally a stone’s throw away from the famous Palau de la Musica and if that doesn’t help, try asking any of the locals trotting up and down the busy streets. The Antic doesn’t feature on any of the touristy maps of what’s hot in Barcelona and only a handful of locals know about it. But those in the know make full use of its alternative vibe, cheap beer, sizable tapas and romantic setting. You find yourself in the middle of a big green courtyard dominated by a giant tree mounted slap bang in the middle and tickled by blue fairy lights as you drunkenly devour a bowl of peanuts – all whilst trying to hold your pose chatting up the hot girl with the blue eyes and the Swiss accent. Sadly the theatre bell rings just as you muster up the courage to ask for her number and she coyly looks at you as she joins the crowd going into the theatre to see an avant-garde version of Chekov or the likes. Arriving at 5pm means you’re early enough to find a good seat yet late enough not to look too eager. The courtyard closes at 11pm on the dot, which basically means the party is about to move elsewhere, so get in whilst it counts. PS – check out their performance schedule as there’s some crazy shit on the line-up; from experimental theatre to extreme underground bands like Cultural Association OME (If you can call it a band that is. More like a ‘project’, or ‘sound intervention’ using instruments, gadgets, electronic, microphones, computers and (manipulated) objects of all kinds).
