Where to get laid

Girl meets boy, boy meets girl, the eternal story of life on earth…but, you’ve gotta get out there to meet ‘em! In Barcelona, it’s no different, so strap on your boots and hit the streets.

Of course who you meet will depend on where you go, so pay attention here and pick your poison…

Random hook ups…
If you’re looking for the random hook-up, try Marmalade, a relatively new cocktail bar in the Raval, Riera Alta, 4. Here a mix of locals, students, and young professionals mingle in a low-key, relaxed atmosphere. A glass of wine is 4 euro, but it may get you a warm body. Also, if you´re not up to luring them in with your stare you can always opt for the pool table as a possible point of encounter. If lady luck doesn’t find you, try one of the other bars along the same street.

International crowd
The Gothic Quarter, around the Plaza Real, is always a good choice, as the international crowd is always friendly and looking to meet people. With strategically placed sofas and chairs places like Cafe Royal and Jamboree, it’s hard not to bump into a cutie or two.

Locals
In terms of meeting locals, a better choice would be heading up to Gracia, where successful young spaniards are often eager to practice their English. It’s a bit out of the center, but well connected by metro (Line 3, Fontana stop) and so in that sense is a great way to venture off the beaten path. Check out the Mond Bar, at the Plaza del Sol, with the best DJs in town and a posh interior, you just might meet your Don Juan…
