- TravelNerdTirana, Albania63 contributionsCool vibe and jazz musicMake sure to check their website for the password. You will be asked before entering. The entire barber-to-cocktail bar thing was so entertaining. Felt like you were part of a secret club and the password was your entry to a Sinatra kind of night. The drinks were good, a tad pricey. I enjoyed the vibe and the jazz version of some very great songs. The staff was fun and they engaged in these little dances with one another while making drinks.Visited August 2023Travelled with friendsWritten September 14, 2023
- _19LScotland, United Kingdom158 contributionsAmazing fun drinks in quirky decorReally cool vibes and great service. Drinks selection was plentiful and the music was a good mix. My one complaint would be that the place gets incredibly hot in the summer and we ended up leaving due to lack of air conditioning and how warm it was inside.Visited September 2023Travelled with friendsWritten September 24, 2023
- Susan B15 contributionsCool place with quirky cocktailsWhat a fantastic place just check Instagram for password or you wont get in. Really cool venue with jazz music and I felt like a gangsters moll. Good selection of cocktails and service was very good.

- craig h5 contributionsA Wonderful Evening - Circa 1920'sA fun place to enjoy great drinks in a unique 1920's-style speakeasy. It was nice to be in a bar that didn't have loud, thumping music. This allowed us to have enjoyable conversation within our group and with other guests. A fun evening out in a place where people are friendly, the drinks are fantastic and the atmosphere is fun and unique. Would definitely recommend and visit again.Visited October 2023Travelled with familyWritten November 5, 2023
- DickieSCLondon, United Kingdom216 contributionsThe Cocktail Bar NOT to miss in BarcelonaA great up market cocktail bar that has a great vibe great cocktails and service with an old speakeasy vibe with Charlie Chaplin movies playing in the background of a dusky low lighting - that is once you have got through the barbershop - do your homework for the code word for entry or your back of the queue! Would recommend going early 7 ish to avoid the queue as they only allow a limited number of people in at any one time which makes it even better. If you have one cocktail in Barcelona have it here!Visited December 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten December 18, 2023
- Asha5 contributionsCocktail bonanza in a fun, 1920s settingWent here to celebrate my birthday and had a fun time. Great selection of drinks and cocktails to order from. As someone who hardly has cocktails, I ended up having three! The bar staff were attentive, gave great customer service, and the drinks were served in some really cool presentations as well. Would recommend as an experience. The vibe was great at the location and the setting (Gatsby/1920s) was fun.Visited December 2023Travelled with friendsWritten December 25, 2023

This was a fun experience for someone who had never been to a "speakeasy" before. You go down into what looks like a barber shop, give a password (the bouncer was nice enough to give us a hint) and then you are let into the secret entrance down into the bar. The bartenders are dressed in a combination period/modern wear and are making drinks with a lot of flair. You are taken to a spot (we were given a place at the bar) and the fun menu is provided - and most drinks are available non-alcoholic if that is what you prefer. The bartenders move with a lot of flair (but not overly so) and are friendly. Some of the drinks are served in very whimsical ways - one in a safe that you had to open, another in a Russian doll. Very cool, innovative and fun. Drinks were delicious too,
The playlist was great - ran the gamut from 60s to 90s. Only thing we didn't like was that about half way through our time, they turned on this flashing light machine that hit most of us right in the eyes, so that was unpleasant, but on the whole it was a really fun experience. They told us we were welcome to come back and bring our teenager (16) if we wanted to as well, maybe next time!

We found this place walking in the street and saw the long queue outside, we stopped thinking it was a normal pub but looking on internet we found the truth. Inside there is this barbershop and behind a door there's this beautiful speakeasy, kind and friendly staff, beautiful and very particular drinks.

Loved the experience of this bar and entering through the barbershop! The cocktails were great however removing a star as the staff were inattentive in the bar. I would still very much recommend a visit!
