To descend to the Bluesman Cocktail Bar from the lobby of El Palace Barcelona is to immerse yourself in the elegant and clandestine atmosphere of an exclusive speakeasy. Noble woods, velvets and amber-toned lights envelop this delicious English-style vintage cocktail bar with original distillates from the period. The space owes its name to the painting that hangs on one of its walls, a gift from Ronnie Wood, a regular guest of the hotel who has even played on the Bluesman stage.
Chandeliers from the s hang over a fine marble bar, while the seductive red of the walls creates an intimate atmosphere and a display case holds unique distillates and beautiful antiques still in use today.
With over four hundred references of distillates and spirits, classic cocktails are made alongside more contemporary liquid creations, which can be accompanied by some tapas. Bluesman Cocktail Bar can be privatised to host events for up to 60 people.
