Bim Bam Bum

Bim Bam Bum

A new addition to the scene run by a couple of veteran party promoters, both the staff and the customers at Bim Bam Bum tend to boast deep gene pools.

Frutti Pop

Frutti Pop

Bars in Raval are known for offering stiffer drinks, a lighter attitude and a more mixed crowd than those in Gayxample. This is no exception.

Museum

Museum

David replicas but no relic of the past: Sugar sweet music videos attract a mixed and friendly crowd of twinks, hipsters and gym bunnies.

La Penultima

La Penultima

Relaxed and friendly, it’s one of the favoured hangouts of the twink and fashion-on-a-budget crowd, who like the kitsch, mismatched décor and cheap drinks.

Chiringuito Gay

Strass

Strass

Another long narrow space in Gayxample that blasts Spanish pop music, popular with both students and the less scholarly inclined.
