Boadas

Barcelona's oldest cocktail bar—operating since the 1930s—underwent a transformation when Simone Caporale and Marc Álvarez of Sips took over operations and relaunched the space in 2022. The martini tradition endures, but the programme now carries the same precision and innovation that drives its sister venue. At No. 85 on the World's list, Boadas bridges nearly a century of Barcelona drinking history with a contemporary approach that respects the room's legacy without being imprisoned by it. Heritage and ambition rarely coexist this comfortably.
