Probably the most popular bar in Barcelona, so popular where they’ve decided that without publicizing it with a name , people will still know about it and go. I think its name is ”Principal” for everyone who might need that information on their next visit, but really when one goes there they don’t really see a sign that indicates the name of the establishment. It is found in a triangular “plaza” where you can also find an internet cafe next door, a gay club called Metro, and a few hotels next to it if you are still left on the streets upon your arrival in Barcelona. It is on the corner of Muntaner and Sepulveda (at metro Universitat), specifically in the Sant Antoni neighborhood.
It is always packed, the terrace is occupied by both locals and tourists alike, who start off their night with the tasty and flavorful, Moritz beer (which was a local Barcelona brew in the mid 19th century but is now brewed in Zaragoza).
You can also enjoy the patatas bravas at this place without spending a fortune, as well as, be in the center of the city and head out to the bars and clubs to enjoy a late night, either drinking, dancing or whatever your sinful heart desires. I have lived in the neighborhood for about 16 months but I finally got the chance to go there just recently. In fact, in the past month, I have gone there three times already. I think it’s just a good meeting point, they have my favorite beer and my favorite snack, where I know it will be prepared just the way I like it.
