The best bars and cafés Spain

He is called the Café de la Luna, which perhaps explains why we spend a very good time, especially in the basement. There is a glass of wine or special teas on the map, accompanied by a piece of pie.

It is the bar of the Hotel Marina, which has been open since 2015 and has become the newest in this area. Located in a street leading to the beach, it offers an almost exhaustive menu of classic cocktails and liqueurs. All you will have to do is settle down in a nice semi-open space with white walls and comfortable leather sofas and accompany the drinks with a few homemade tapas. It's up to you to see then, if like Un singe en hiver in a Henri Verneuil film, these different drinks will transport you to Cairo.

El Pimpi has plenty of corners and nooks and crannies and the stroll deserves a visit. To admire the beautiful collections of huge posters of ferias on the walls, bull heads, bullfighter portraits, mini-patios invaded by green or flowering plants such as that of the Repompa, famous Malagueña singer. We will also go up to the first floor to go to the Palomar, Picasso's dovecote, a pretty lounge with a view of the Alcazaba and we will have breakfast on a very beautiful terrace overlooking the Alcazaba and the Roman theatre.

Located at the top of one of the hills of Huelva, el conquero, the place is above all a unique viewpoint over the city and the salt marshes in the distance. But other elements have made this lounge-bar with its oriental decoration one of the must-see nights since its creation in July 2007. Because if coming to enjoy the sunset is one of the first pleasures, you will also appreciate its many comfortably arranged corners, its many musical activities and why not, its football matches, broadcast live on the big screen.

Here's the perfect spot for a cocktail at the end of the day: from the terrace of the Dirty Flamingo, the sunset is quite sensational! Born in 2023 out of the desire to create a more urban and hype chiringuito (beach bar), the project is a success. It has to be said that the location - on the jetty, level with the Hotel W, at the end of Barceloneta beach - is exceptional! The menu features fresh, thirst-quenching cocktails, a collection of quality sangrias and selected liqueurs. A trendy address to stroll around at dusk.

Despite the fact that it appears to be derelict, this establishment attracts tourists and locals alike. Its dusty shelves and tattered ceiling transport you to a 19th-century bohemian bar that had its heyday when it was frequented by Hemingway and Picasso. If you're still not convinced, you'll feel much more comfortable after drinking a glass of absinthe, the house specialty! Will the "green fairy" bring out the artist in you?

Perfect for a night out with friends if you're looking for something different in the downtown area. This warm and welcoming establishment offers a menu full of Mexican dishes to accompany different cocktails. Among the specialties, try the fried green tomatoes, the Nachos con todo or the delicious Margarita Burger. Finally, to liven up your evening, try their signature cocktail, the Margarita Blue, which will leave you speechless. If you're in the neighborhood on the weekend, be sure to stop by and enjoy the live music.

Opened in 1998, coffee is one of the only places to listen and see flamenco. On Sunday, the programming changes, open doors to lovers of theatre, jazz, tango, bossa… See their website.

A small bar, always very welcoming. Varied clientele.

One of Madrid's oldest taverns, as the dusty, century-old bottles in the window indicate. Inside, azulejos, authentic paintings, eight oak barrels, a pewter counter with taps dating back to 1917, and constantly refilling glasses of vermouth, the house specialty, give the place a unique atmosphere. Try the delicious white anchovies in vinegar. An ideal place to start the evening, especially when you've found a seat on the small terrace on the charming plaza de Chueca.

La Ardosa, named after the village of origin of its founder Rafael Fernández (in 1892 anyway!) on the outskirts of Toledo, cultivates its ancient and authentic appearance, with its ancestral barrels, its collection of old bottles, its glass sign above the door and its beautiful azulejos. This wonderful tavern prides itself on being the first to serve Guinness. Specialities: cod or goat cheese croquetas, or onions stuffed with tuna... A perfect way to start the evening!

It is certainly the liveliest place in Figueres. A few steps from the ramblas, this very large space occupies almost the whole block between two streets. But it has been able to arrange sub-areas, with small tables, stools around the barra, corners to meet with friends. It is appreciated first of all for its beer brewed on the premises, with a tank visible in the basement, but also for its tapas as fresh as they are multiple: oysters, prawns, croquettes, mini brochettes of tuna, salmon or cuttlefish, small empanadas, etc.. Passage recommended.

The specialty of this small bar located in a pedestrian alley is the fresh fruit cocktail, and more specifically, as its name deliciously suggests, the mojito. Run by a friendly French team for about twenty years now, the atmosphere is very friendly and the glasses, in addition to being the object of particular and careful attention, are well filled. Here, we don't skimp on the freshness of the ingredients, which are carefully selected each morning. When we speak of mojito here, it is indeed art.

This beautiful little bodega dates back to 1954 and still bears the name of its first owner, Mr. Quimet. In 2010, this bar was acquired by the Montero brothers, who have managed to keep the family and rustic atmosphere so appreciated by the clientele. The walls are filled with wine bottles and newspaper clippings that tell, piece by piece, the history of this bar where, in addition to a good drink, you can also eat delicious tapas of local sausages and preserves. Take your time and enjoy the fact that they are open every day.

Hidden away in a corner of the historic centre, an unexpected oasis of peace and quiet: Welcome to La Margarete! Once you open the door, you are greeted by an elegant interior room, followed by a large, beautiful, open-air garden with a unique character. Once a shoe shop, now a bar-pub, it's the ideal place to start the night, with very good cocktails. Manu and his team, apostles of the Mediterranean evening, get the crowds moving to the sound of independent music. Both romantic and festive, the establishment is suitable for everyone.

This is the fashionable place to drink a delicious vermouth with anchovies! Located in the lively street of San Lorenzo, this "gastrobar" is also a delicatessen where you can buy ham, cecina de León, local wines, homemade beer and a wide variety of canned goods. But before you make your choice, you can ask to taste the different products on sale, so that you can shop according to your preferences. On weekends, this local establishment is packed at aperitif time!

When you're by the sea, it's tempting to opt for cafés with a view of the sea, but this one is definitely worth a visit. With its superb Art Deco decor and terrace with large rattan armchairs, it's a good address to visit at various times of the day. For a gourmet break, it's the ideal place to savor homemade pastries or ice creams. In the evening, cocktails or wines accompanied by tapas will bring the day to an end in a particularly calm setting, next to the church. These are just some of the reasons why it has become a popular meeting place for many Puerto de la Cruz residents.

A name well justified for this merendero located at the end of Burriana beach, thus enjoying the most beautiful sunsets. Both merendero and beach club, the location will allow you to sit on a lounger or comfortable armchairs to enjoy various cocktails. And possibly to carry out a tapeo. If you want to be in more luxurious mode, you will choose for "Balinese", comfortable spaces surrounded by sails.
