What is the Best Sports Bar Barcelona can offer?
Not everyone’s been lucky enough to score tickets to La Liga, Premier League, Champion’s League or any other of the adrenaline-rising championships around the world. In that case, it’s best to reach out for the next best thing: watching a game in a sports bar drowning in an exhilarating atmosphere. Barcelona lives up to its football heritage and offers a wide variety of watering holes to satisfy your sporty cravings. In fact, it’s harder to find bars that don’t screen football; Though, not all of them are quite right for watching the big games.
So, here is a list of the bars to watch football in Barcelona. The list has the best sports bar Barcelona has to offer. There’s something for everyone whether you like it quiet or rowdy, sophisticated or down to earth! (Scroll to the bottom to see the map ?).
Traditional Catalan/Spanish Sports Bars
- La Taverna de Barcelona
Ronda de la Universitat 37
La Taverna de Barcelona, located in the very heart of the city, treats you to live sports screenings and includes a cracking Spanish atmosphere. Just a stone’s throw from Plaça Catalunya, this great place is the hub of passionate football fans, especially those “locos” for FC Barcelona. On the menu, you will come across traditional Spanish tapas as well as familiar bar snack favorites. It gets busy and the drinks are a bit pricey, so book your table for the big games!
- Itaca
Carrer de Santa Rosa, 14b, 08012
Itaca is easily one of my favorite Catalan bars. Found in Gracia I stumbled on this place by accident while out looking for somewhere to watch the match. The place is very Catalan and they bring in a big screen for Barcelona matches. The atmosphere is great and because the majority of patrons are Catalan you can enjoy a thoroughly Catalan match!
The bar staff are really friendly and even brought out extra chairs for me and my friends when we had nowhere to sit. Something pretty cool is that you don’t pay for your drinks in the traditional way. Instead, you put a few euros on a card (€10 I think) and serve yourself.
It’s convenient as you don’t have to wait to be served or try to get the barman’s attention. It’s also quite a novel thing to do, step up to the bar, pour, sit down, drink and done!
- Casa de Tapes Cañota
Carrer de Lleida, 7
Another of the great bars to watch football is Casa de Tapes Cañota in the Poble Sec neighborhood. You can cheer for your team on four big screens positioned around the bar while devouring creative seafood tapas “a la gallega.” The place has the perfect light-hearted atmosphere to enjoy a football-filled evening with a pleasurably authentic edge.
- Fàbrica Moritz
Ronda de Sant Antoni, 39 – 41
Located in a former beer factory of the most popular Catalan beer brand, Fàbrica Moritz embodies a rugged paradise for sports fans. Featuring the longest bar in the whole of Barcelona, the place combines the best of wine, beer, snacks, tapas and gastronomic delicacies.
Out of all places to watch football this is the one that will cater to those with simpler as well as more refined tastes. The architectural perks of the old factory take watching football to a whole new level.
- El Sotavent
Carrer Major de Sarrià, 61
El Sovanet is the best sports bar Barcelona can offer if you’re aiming to escape the tourist crowds and instead dive into Catalan social life. Although its clientele is decisively local, we cannot say the same about its design. In other words, if El Sovanet were your friend in a Halloween costume, you would likely ask: Who on earth are you supposed to be?! The reality of it translates into a classic 80s neon sign welcome followed by a staircase and rococo mirror worthy of a classic cocktail bar leading to what could easily be an Irish-style bar interior. All in all, it’s a fun place to watch the World Cup match live with all your friends. Plus, those who are not great sports fans can pass the time playing pool or board games which you can borrow from the bar.
Irish Pubs
- The Wild Rover Irish Pub
Carrer de Santa Mònica, 2
The Wild Rover is one of the several traditional Irish bars in Barcelona located not far from La Rambla. The pub treats you to two gigantic screens as well as six large TVs streaming anything from football, tennis, rugby, basketball and more. Spanish La Liga, British Premier League, Europa League or World Cup matches – you can watch the games in a cozy atmosphere only an Irish pub can provide. They serve classic bar snacks for sharing as well as burgers and sandwiches. Guinness, Beck’s, Coors Light, Magners and more come are served on tap.
- Shenanigans Irish Pub
Carrer del Marquès de Barberà, 11
Another legendary place, this Irish pub is located in the dynamic neighborhood of El Raval. It boasts a huge back room perfect for watching the game with a big group of friends. Plus, a few more TVs hang right above the bar, so you don’t lose a second of the match when going for the next round.
The menu offers a selection of typical meat and vegetable pies as well as a selection of real Irish ales.
- The Shamrock Irish Bar
Carrer Tallers, 72, 08001
The Shamrock is one of my favorite bars in Barcelona and has become the ‘local’ for me and my friends. This is a bit of a hidden gem of Barcelona and I only found out about it because of one of my Catalan friends.
Shamrock is really central, just a few minutes off of La Rambla. It has a nice, spacious terrace to sit and have a beer in a perfect spot for people watching. Heading inside you’ll experience a great atmosphere with some of the nicest, friendliest bar staff around. The bar itself has a pool table, great beer for a decent price (unlike some other bars), it’s dog-friendly and 4 large TV’s adorn the walls showing a variety of sports. On different nights Shamrock also has live music, stand-up comedy and a pool league. Smaller than somewhere like L’ovella Negra but with a more personal and welcoming atmosphere, this is definitely my number one pick of bars to watch sport in Barcelona.
- Flaherty’s Irish Pub
Plaza Joaquim Xirau, s/n
Owned and run by the same family as the Shenanigans, Flaherty’s Irish Pub can be found just off La Rambla. In fact, it’s one of the top go-to destinations for sports fans living in or passing through the city. The pub screens an unmatched number of sports channels, and the staff is always happy to do their best to accommodate requests. The food offering features pub classics such as pies and jacket potatoes and the atmosphere is pretty much everything you would expect from an Irish pub.
- The Michael Collins Irish Bar
Plaça de la Sagrada Família, 4
Close to La Sagrada Familia, The Michael Collins Irish Bar is known for screening mostly FC Barcelona and Champions League matches. However, don’t worry, when the time comes around the World Cup matches are all they play. The viewing experience creates a great atmosphere as the whole bar watches the match from a TV hung on a wall in the middle of the bar.
- The George Payne Irish Bar
Plaça d’Urquinaona, 5
Last but not least of the Irish sports oases, the George Payne Irish Bar is one of the best places to watch football. The bar boasts well-positioned televisions as well as great sound systems that manage to fill the entire room. Better yet, the experience feels like the stadium crowd is actually around you!
International & Crafty
- Belushi’s Barcelona
Carrer de Bergara, 3
This epic international bar boasts 10HD plasma TVs as well as three giant projection screens. For many, this is what makes Belushi’s the best sports bar Barcelona ever had. Its customers enjoy all the latest sporting action from the UK, America, Australia, and beyond. Naturally, with Barcelona being football-crazy, the screenings are not short on football matches and championships all televised with English commentary. Combine your game with a tasty bite to eat and brace yourself for a raucous atmosphere.
- CocoVail Beer Hall Barcelona
Carrer d’Aragó, 284
CocoVail is a unique kind of venue, a true craft beer emporium! The bar offers over twenty different craft beers many of which are from small local breweries. Reminiscent of typical American-style beer halls with ample space, the place is ideal for large groups. The menu has it all including burgers, chicken wings, delicious pulled pork sandwiches and even poke bowls.
As far as the sports go, you can come here to watch NFL as well as the main football matches.
Students Favorites
- L’Ovella Negra Marina
Carrer de Zamora, 78
With over 2000 square meters of space and low prices, L’Ovella Negra is a true paradise for Barcelona’s students. Located in Poblenou, not too far from the beaches, the bar occupies an old factory building and boasts numerous bar games, slot machines, billiard and, most importantly, large TV screens.
Better yet, the place offers irresistibly priced jugs of beer and sangria. Out of all the places to watch football in Barcelona, L’Ovella Negra is the one that pulsates with youthful energy and incredibly lively atmosphere. A perfect place for large groups!
- Sonora Sports Tavern
Carrer de Pamplona, 96-104
The Sonora Sports Tavern features two large projections screens in the middle of the bar which are always alive with the most important sporting match or event going on at the time. Given the limited number of screens, you can only watch one game at a time so check what’s on the “menu” before you go. Still, the great food and drink that comes hand in hand with reasonable prices are hard to beat. One of the cheapest pints of beer on offer is only €3.30 which makes Sonora a serious candidate for the best sports bar in Barcelona.
Best Sports Bars in Barcelona with that Special Something
- Coctelería Snooker
Carrer de Roger de Llúria, 42
If you are craving a somewhat fancier football-watching outing, Snooker cocktail bar is your winner.
Snooker envelops you in a classy British ambiance in the middle of Eixample. You can enjoy watching your team on 60” UHD screens with a sophisticated but still passionate vibe in the air. Plus, those members of your group that are not that crazy about football can pass the time playing pool and other bar games.
- Mau Mau Underground
Calle de Fontrodona, 35
Mau Mau Underground is a chic lounge club residing in a former warehouse in the Poble Sec neighborhood. Since its opening in 1998, the place has become one of the most popular cultural and social spots in the area. However, sports are also appreciated in this place. You can enjoy watching the most important football matches on two gigantic screens. Comfy sofas, hot dogs, nachos, beer or gin-tonic, Mau Mau has it all!

We fell in love with tapas, jamon and paella with all our hearts even before it became mainstream. For us, the culture of Spanish food is not only the gastronomic traditions of the Catalans – many types of “tapas” (small snacks that are served to guests in Catalan establishments), fragrant paella and thin slices of jamon. Other components are no less important. This includes an appropriate interior, anti-corrida and sports broadcasts on the big screen, and, most importantly, a sincere atmosphere, freedom and charisma.

Lovers of health to improve and spend
visits. They are located in ancient buildings, so the interior of educational institutions can impress anyone.
The ancient library of Gòtic-Andreu Nin is also worth a visit (by the way, many different legends and myths are associated with it).
In the photo Universidad Pompeu Fabra
Young people prefer to relax in small squares hidden from the eyes of tourists. For example, you can have a coffee at Frederic Marès or watch the sunset while sitting in a cafe on Piazza Antonio López.
Antonio López Square
George Orwell Square, by the way, has a city beach, so you can sunbathe at the same time.
In the Gothic Quarter you can also find a municipal sports center (in general, Barcelona residents are very sensitive to their health and beauty of the body) – Center Esportiu Municipal Colom. Entrance to the center is free, and there are enough simulators.
Center Esportiu Municipal Colom
For those who find exercise equipment a boring sport, no one forbids you to take a morning jog through the crooked and tangled streets of the Gothic Quarter, enjoying the beauty of the buildings, the silence and the smell of coffee.
Streets of the Gothic Quarter
For lovers of something interesting and forbidden, the Marijuana Museum (The Hash Marihuana Cáñamo & Hemp Museum) has been opened in the Gothic Quarter. The only one in Barcelona and the largest in the world (larger than Dutch) . The museum is open in a magnificent 16th-century palace, with large stained-glass windows and terraces.
Museum exhibits are unique. Russian tourists will especially like the original of the famous “hemp” treaty between the Russian Empire and the French Empire of the era of Napoleon Bonaparte .
Well, in general, after visiting such a place, the amount of knowledge about cannabis increases dramatically.
On the first floor of the Museum there is a shop where you can buy a variety of themed souvenirs, such as smoking pipes.
The museum is half an hour walk from the Museum of the History of Catalonia, located at Carrer Ample, 35. It is open from 10:00 to 22:00 seven days a week. The entrance ticket costs 7 euros.

TOP-3 places to have a quick and cheap meal in Gothic
LA CASTANYA
Young people do not like pretentious restaurants, preferring light snacks. But even such food can be delicious. We advise you to visit such an institution as the LA CASTANYA bar.
Entrance of LA CASTANYA Cafe in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter
Located at Escudellers 30, this cafe serves delicious burgers and fries. Moreover, the type of bread, fillings can be invented independently.
All products are local, fresh and very tasty. The prices are moderate, and the portions are very large (average bill 5-8 euros).

The diner is located at Ferran, 13.
Open from 1:00 to 02:30 (every day).
Nightclubs and bars in the Gothic Quarter
Naturally, young people are concerned not only with the issues of study, but also with the issues of a good night’s rest and entertainment. The best nightlife pubs and clubs in are located in the Gothic Quarter. It is best to start with establishments that are located on Mercè Street.
It is worth visiting places such as: Bombón, Sor Rita (the best cocktails in the city), Ryans Irish Pub Paradis (the pub serves stronger drinks, the prices for which will pleasantly surprise a Russian tourist).
Bombón bar
Bombón is generally a lot of fun. The owners of the bar come from the Caribbean and they tried to recreate the incendiary atmosphere of their homeland.
Venezuelan dishes are served here and, by the way, they are not very expensive, as are cocktails (a medium-sized mojito costs 3 euros). This cafe is also interesting because on Wednesdays from 21:00 they give free dance lessons .
Salsa is taught to everyone. And on Fridays and Saturdays there are “live” concerts.
The bar is open from 19:00 to 02:30, and on Saturday and Sunday from 14:00 to 03:00. By the way, it is located next to the Museum of the History of Catalonia, so it is quite natural after a rich educational program to plunge headlong into the Caribbean fun.
Sor Rita
Bar Sor Rita is pure kitsch . But lovers of everything unusual, for example, shoes on the ceiling, should definitely look here. We can say that this is the best place to start a crazy night in Barcelona.
The bar is located at Mercè 27 (near the Museum of the History of Catalonia). Open from 19.00 to 02.30 (every day).
Harlem Jazz Club
Jazz lovers should head to the Harlem Jazz Club. Although not only jazz is played here. Every Tuesday at 22:00 the live concert starts. You can hear acoustic guitar, flamenco, rock music. But on Fridays, only jazz is played here.
The entrance ticket costs about 7 euros (includes one drink). The club is open from 22:00 to 03:00 (except Mondays and Sundays).
Located near Santa Maria del Pi (Carrer de Comtessa de Sobradiel, 8 – exact address). More information about the concert program can be found on the website – harlemjazzclub.es .
Bar MARGARITA BLUE
Another bar worth visiting is MARGARITA BLUE. This is a great cocktail bar that also serves burgers and burritos. The bar has a somewhat Mexican feel to it, so tequila cocktails are incredibly popular here. Among other things, the bar often hosts concerts of local Catalan bands. Remember, young people prefer to relax in this bar, it is always crowded and noisy here. The bar is located at Carrer de Josep Anselm Clavè, 6 (near the Ramblas). Open from 18:30 to 02:30. Prices are standard: for cocktails – 6 euros, for Mexican cuisine – 7-12 euros.

com .
Sidecar Factory and Jamboree dance clubs
Incendiary dance clubs such as:
Sidecar Factory . The oldest nightclub in the city, where the best parties are held and the best concerts are given.
Jamboree . This is a legendary institution, although it is younger than the previous one, local musical groups often give “live” concerts here.
Macarena night club
Club-bar Macarena is a good choice for those who love club music. It’s fun and very sincere (the club is small). Entrance, which is noteworthy, is free (according to flyers that are handed out on a nearby street). The club is open from 00:00 to 06:00 (every day).
The club is located at Nou de Sant Francesc, 5.
Bar Sub Rosa
Another favorite place of Spanish youth is the bar Sub Rosa . The place is colorful (more like a French pub in the style of “Wild Horse” or “Moulin Rouge”, only smaller and without dancing on stage) and is located not far from Plaza Real.
In the evenings it is very crowded, as from 20:00 to 23:00 all drinks cost 4 euros. The bar itself is open until 3 am.
Club Bar Marula
Lovers of live music should visit Marula Club Bar. This is a real Mecca for lovers of black music. The fun here continues until the morning (the best concerts are given on Friday and Saturday).
The club is located at Escudellers 49. The entrance ticket costs 5 euros (one cocktail is included).
Be careful! The area is full of “hunters” for the purses of drunken young tourists and backpackers.
The best oriental restaurants in the Gothic Quarter
BUN BO
After a wild night out, it’s good to eat something hot. Since young people love oriental cuisine, you should look into the Vietnamese restaurant BUN BO. In the Gothic Quarter, it is located at Carrer dels Sagristans, 3. Here you can not only taste a variety of exotic dishes, but also drink a glass of delicious Mojito with passion fruit.
The average bill is usually 20 euros, but for poor students and young people there is an offer for a set lunch , which will cost only 10 euros (3 dishes to choose from). The restaurant is open from 13:00 (just for those who just woke up), and closes at 00:30.
Japanese Koy Shunka
Another interesting place is the Japanese restaurant Koy Shunka. It is located next to the Cathedral of the city and enjoys well-deserved fame. Although the prices here are quite high.
The tasting menu starts at 82 euros (although they can fill you up and get dessert).
The restaurant is open from 13:30 to 15:00 (lunch) and from 20:30 to 23:00 (dinner). Be sure to book in advance, do not be late, otherwise you will be left without lunch or dinner and enjoy the culinary skills of local chefs.
Cafe-bar Milk
For those daredevils who decide to get up early after a fun night party, there is a cafe-bar Milk. The most interesting thing is that brunches are available here from 9:00 to 16:30, they remove the hangover perfectly.
The cafe-bar is open until 02:00 at Carrer Gignàs, 21, but from 22:00 there are no more places at the tables and the bar counter. This club has long become a legend of Gothic.
12 rules of conduct in Barcelona, the Gothic Quarter and nightclubs
Barcelona is a great city for young people to relax. There is where to go and what to see, and you can simply “not get out” of Gothic – there are so many interesting things here. But, despite the tolerance of the Catalans, in order not to get into unpleasant situations for those tourists who travel to Spain for the first time, several rules should be observed:
1
Do not call Catalans Spaniards . An adult and sensible person will simply be offended, and representatives of the “hot Spanish youth” may strike.
2
Don’t be surprised to be addressed as “you”. The Catalans quickly begin to communicate and make acquaintances, not recognizing the conventions.
3
Learn at least a couple of phrases in Spanish to communicate with waiters in bars and cafes (believe me, almost everywhere and in all establishments, there is a “Catalan menu” and a “foreigner menu” – the prices in the second option are almost 2 times).
4
In bars, listen to the bartender. He is the “King and God” of the institution, and if he says: “Enough”, then enough. Do not insist and do not ask for trouble, just go to another bar if your legs are still holding.
5
Don’t visit “sports” bars and restaurants, especially during sports matches, you can just go deaf. Although it is better to watch football in such an institution than in a stadium where the risk of injury is very high.
6
If you don’t want trouble, stop walking along the Rambla at night (adjacent to the Gothic Quarter). At night, prostitutes and their pimps work here (prostitution is legal in Spain), they sell drugs (marijuana is the most harmless kind), pickpockets and other representatives of the criminal world work.
7
Do not mess with expats (they are quite easy to distinguish from the crowd). They are vindictive and representatives of the criminal world can “stand” behind them. In nightclubs, avoid dubious acquaintances and offers coming from migrants .
