In Short
Silver stars dangle throughout narrow, red-walled saloon, perhaps foreshadowing what the local and after-work crowds will be seeing after they throw back the bar's 100-plus different shots. Five plasma screens flash with sports, while a digital jukebox plays everything from '80s hair bands to modern pop. Creative shots, which are typical of the namesake city, run $5 to $7 and include the Harry Potter, a vodka-based blend that's served aflame--like magic.

I was intrigued by the other postings, so I decided to check out Barcelona Bar. Given the place is outrageously small and has 3 bartenders, you would think it would be easy to get a drink; however, the bartenders seem caught up in their own little world and often time negate customers. 15 minutes to get a beer in a small bar...really? It's ridiculous. Do yourselves a favor and check out one of the 5 other bars within a 1 block radius of this place. Bars where you can actually enjoy your beer without worrying about body-checking some poor girl into the wall when you turn around. And bars where people serve you promptly and with a smile on their face. Save your time and money...head elsewhere.

few times that I've gone it was pretty packed. For being a martini bar they do not have a very extensive martini menu, but watch out for their bellini, it packs a punch! The bellini, and the fact that I can walk home will inevitably bring me back

This bar is so much fun! It is a great time whether you go after work, to watch the games or on the weekend! I have gone several times! It has a chill vibe but can get crazy with all the shots that are available! Real sweet bartender and cute too!
