Boadas Cocktail Bar Barcelona. Most famous and oldest cocktail bar in Barcelona where Hemingway used to drink. Boadas still retains the charm of days gone by. Boadas is a very small bar but big on old world cocktail bar charm with bartenders in uniform shaking up the drinks and martinis. A must-visit for cocktail aficionados and historians who want the experience and to savour a glimpse of a world gone by. Boadas was founded in 1933 by Cuban Miguel Boadas and is still run by his family. You can see his portraits in many original drawings and paintings on the walls. Founder Miguel Boadas first learned his trade at Floridita bar in Havana, where novelist Ernest Hemingway enjoyed many daiquiris. The legendary writer was a frequent customer of Boadas in Barcelona too during the 1930s.  Busy at the weekends due to fame and close proximity to Plaza Catalunya but worth a visit. Average price per cocktail $13
