Banker’s Bar
Tucked inside the elegant Mandarin Oriental on Passeig de Gràcia, Banker’s Bar offers a seductive blend of heritage and modern flair. The moment you enter, your gaze is drawn upward—genuine safety deposit boxes from the building's original bank now form a dramatic, mood-lit ceiling that whispers stories of the past and shadows of intrigue. By day, this space feels intimate and casual; by night, it transforms into a polished cocoon of low lighting, leather seats, and plush décor both indoors and out. Thoughtful design meets top-tier craftsmanship: bartenders craft standout creations like the Banker’s Martini, L’or du Toffee, Portofino, Maysa, Las Rosas de Ushi, Dragon’s Pit, and the Dirty Banker’s—all alongside classic cocktails, wines, cavas, champagnes, and mocktails. The bar’s ambiance is elevated by smooth background tunes and regular live music nights—especially Wednesday’s “Banker’s Sessions” featuring local DJs and performers—to accompany each sip. Guests often praise not only the design but the service: one review notes “outstanding service… wonderfully designed bar to enjoy and relax with Catalan brandy”, while another highlights “ton of thought into every drink…15–20 € per cocktail… worth the visit”. In short, Banker’s Bar is where subtlety and indulgence meet—heritage architecture, expert mixology, and an atmosphere that feels both exclusive and effortlessly cool. It’s a place to linger, sip slowly, and soak in stylish Barcelona nightfall.
