A landmark location in the old sailor’s district of Barceloneta, Can Paixano is bound to leave an indelible impression on its visitors. Also know as the ‘Champagne Bar’, there are no chairs and it is all standing room, but this place will get packed after 7pm.
The tavern atmosphere befits the available drink and fare. A selection of sparkling wines and cava (mostly of the establishment’s signature variety) is available on the condition you taste the tapas and special “bocadillos” (sandwiches) made with local sausages, which should hardly be a problem.
It is very popular among tourists and locals for its cheap wine and fine cava.
