La Whiskeria

4.7 (1,851)$$ · Mid-range

La Whiskeria caters specifically to whisky drinkers, stocking a selection broad enough to satisfy serious enthusiasts alongside a solid atmosphere and music that keeps the room lively. It's less about cocktails and more about the spirit itself, with staff generally knowledgeable about the bottles on offer. Some reviewers note that prices run high for certain widely available labels, so it rewards ordering something a bit more special. No reservation is required, making it an easy stop for a focused whisky night.

✨ Reasons to go

  • 1The bar is built around whisky rather than cocktails, with a selection broad enough to satisfy serious enthusiasts.
  • 2Staff members, including a bartender named Pedro noted by reviewers, walk guests through the history behind individual whiskies rather than just pouring drinks.
  • 3Ordering beyond the well-known labels rewards you, since prices on widely available bottles run higher than the rarer picks.

What people say

"Amazing place for the whiskey lovers! We found this place on our recent visit since Hubby loves whiskey. Bonus, it was close to our hotel. It was a great find! The staff were all wonderful, the atmosphere welcoming and festive for the holiday season, and a vast selection of whiskey, and great cocktails for those not into whiskey. Fran was super knowledgeable; he helped my husband find new to him whiskeys, and knew all the flavor profiles / tastings notes about every one of them! He made me two delicious whiskey cocktails that I wouldn't have chosen on my own but I loved them both. He even gave us some recommendations for our next stop in Madrid. We loved the experience so much that we came back a week later when we were back in Barcelona before our flight home and Fran not only remembered us, he remembered what we tried the week prior and what we liked. Since the kitchen was closed due to the holiday, he recommended a nearby restaurant for a bite to eat after our visit and it was wonderful too! Everyone else working the bar was so friendly and engaging as well. Highly recommend a stop here if you're in Barcelona!"
