We were looking for something a little different to do in the evening and we got this one really right. Dara, our mixologist, was very informative, entertaining and fun. We had a great time. We picked up some tips and tricks and there was even impromptu dancing. I would highly recommend this activity.

It was a great experience and so much fun! Our bartender was very knowledgeable. The tapas were amazing as were the drinks!!

Great guide/ fun time/ not great cocktails

Sarah_Z, Jun 2026
I did this solo, it was a great way to meet people and our teacher was personable and so fun. They don’t skimp on the amount of cocktail or tapas you receive. Four FULL cocktails, cava and so many tapas that we left a lot behind. I would’ve preferred different cocktails that are from Spain- we did an espresso martini which was honestly just ok but at least gave European vibe. A pornstar martini- why? A margarita- ok maybe in Mexico but not good lol. And then we did a tequila sunset (not sunrise) which is supposedly from the area so we’ll let it pass! Would’ve preferred a tinto de Verano or sangria or something closer to what locals drink. Tapas were just ok, but there was a huge cockroach in the bar that one of the patrons had to kill! If you’re looking for a fabulous time and are fine with just ok cocktails, do this!

There was even dancing

Poured drinks and vibes

Dmitry_K, Jun 2026
What sticks with me about this class isn't just the drinks (though they were solid) — it's Darragh's energy. He's one of those people who seems to genuinely enjoy making strangers have a good time together, and it works. No awkwardness, no stuffiness, just a roomful of people shaking cocktails and laughing. If you're in Barcelona and want something that's not another bar crawl, this is it.

Get your Barcelona party started with this definite must-do!!!

jessica_s, Jun 2026
Learn how to make and enjoy 4 delicious cocktails in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Host was fun and engaging, and played music as we shook, stirred, and muddled the most incredible drinks. Tasty tapas also served. Highly recommend this experience!!!!

Do not miss this fun experience

Shari_N, Jun 2026
So much fun and delicious cocktails. Darragh couldn’t have been nicer, funnier or more entertaining.

Exceeded my expectations!

Jessica_R, May 2026
It was amazing! We did this for a hen do with 11 of us and we had a total blast! Darragh was great! Defo book!

It was an absolute blast!...

Lea_H, May 2026
It was an absolute blast! Our bartender was fantastic, making the experience personalized and intimate with a small group. We all had a great time, and the drinks were simply amazing. If you’re planning a trip to Barcelona, I highly recommend this tour.

10/10 experience

Leah_N, May 2026
Had the most fantastic experience, Darragh was a brilliant host. He was super knowledgeable about the history of all the cocktails we made, as well as having a lot of funny stories. I went on my own and was made to feel so included by both the others in my group and by Darragh. Definitely worth the money with 4 cocktails, ranging from sour, savoury and sweet, and very yummy tapas. So happy I chose to do this on my trip to Barcelona, and would definitely recommend to everyone going.

So much fun!

Mackenzie_M, Apr 2026
So much fun!! Amazing cocktails, and our guy was so funny and brought the energy. Definitly get your bank for your buck.

Great experience

Victoria_T, Apr 2026

Great night!

Sarah_O, Apr 2026
We had an amazing time at this workshop! Met some lovely people and made some delicious cocktails and had some tasty tapas. Darragh was an amazing host and he made sure that we had a great time ☘️ I would 100% recommend this to anyone that’s in Barcelona for a night!

Average Cocktails

Deana_P, Mar 2026
The class and Tapas were fine. We were late getting started because a group was very late. Weade general cocktails that you can find anywhere though. That was a bit disappointing. Spain makes great vermouth, so we thought we would use some things specific for the region. We could have possibly learned a sangria with all of the beautiful fruit in the market. We dis cosmopolitan, margaritas, espresso martini and one other normal cocktail.

I was the only one booked...

Carrie_B, Jan 2026
I was the only one booked for this tour so had to shift to their tapas and wine tour and I’m quite happy that happened. Andrew led our boisterous group thru town and we had such fun. Definitely recommend!

Underwhelming experience

Ingrid_H, Jan 2026
This experience was very disappointing. My guess is that it very much has to do with the host you get. Our “bartender” interacted very little with us. Have no idea what his name was and he only talked to us to give us a recipe for the drink we were making. “Two of these one of these…”. No explanation of the drinks, any technique besides shaking etc. he basically did not talk to the group and just handed out clean glasses and ingredients. Then promptly kicked us out after the last drink. He clearly did not want to be doing this class. The four drinks were very pedestrian. Since we were taking this class in Spain we were expecting Spanish cocktails, not a daiquiri, pina colada and a mojito. Sweet syrup was used instead of fresh fruit and sprite instead of tonic. The tapas arrived after three drinks and were ok but nothing great. Overall very underwhelming for the money we paid. Fortunately the group we ended up with was nice so we got to at least talk to people since our host ignored us.

Eat before you go!

Michele_V, Dec 2025
We had a great time once it got started. We arrived early and no one seemed to know another about the class. We were told to come back twice. The second time will come back, we were offered a complimentary drink. The class was only 4 people. We vibe and had a great time. Help each other mix drink. The tapas could have been more. We were told we would get the drink recipes and we didn't, so who is reading this please send them.

Highly recommended

Alison_M, Nov 2025
Amazing experience, loads of fun and the mixologist (Simon) made the night. I would Highly recommend to anyone

Fantastic experience

Grant_S, Oct 2025
Fantastic experience. Had an absolute blast. Simon our host for the excursion was lots of fun and very friendly. The cocktails and tapas were delicious. Definitely a must do when visiting Barcelona.

Great class

MACH_J, Oct 2025
Simon was a great instructor, this class needs more advertisement. The four drinks you learn are heart drinks but the way class is ran is better. You have to be go in the moment and have fun. Let him teach you the way he wants and the class is great. I would take this class every time I came back. To barecola it is that much fun. Just let lose and be yourself and you will have a good time.

Fun time!

Indira_A, Sep 2025
We had a light nice time learning to make tasty cocktails. The tapas were good. Fun few hours for everyone.

Great experience

Jamie_H, Sep 2025
Simon was such a knowledgeable mixologist! He made the experience so fun! We had a blast learning about the history of the cocktails and how to properly make them. Would highly recommend.

Mixology!

Shyril_B, Sep 2025
It’s so much fun! You’ll meet some great friends. I highly recommend and ask for Santi. He was absolutely wonderful

Sofia_N, Sep 2025
We booked this cocktail-making class for a bachelorette party, and it was such a fantastic experience! Our guide, Lupe, was incredibly kind, interactive, and so much fun – she really made the whole evening special. We learned how to make some amazing cocktails (and enjoyed drinking them just as much) and the tapas were absolutely delicious!

Fun, but not the best use for your money and weak elemental drinks

Gordon_M, Aug 2025
The person doing this class was very nice but the recipes for basic cocktails were terrible. For example, they used Sprite in a Mojito and instead of fresh or frozen strawberries in a Strawberry Daquari, an extremely sweet strawberry syrup was used. My husband felt all of the liquors were watered down.

Fun

Leslie_R, Jul 2025
A fun experience for my daughter and her friends. They got to learn the basics of making cocktails. Atmosphere was festive.

Very good value for the...

Leah_G, May 2025
Very good value for the price!! Made 4 nice cocktails, were given cava beforehand and a shot during the class. For 6 drinks it was a great price! We were taken to a very small private bar in the Gothic quarter and given a variety of tapas. Our teacher (Jordy) even went out for a drink with our small group afterwards! Would 100% recommend for anyone looking to make friends, learn a new skill, and have an affordable night out.

Hen do Cocktails 🍹🍸

Hannah_J, May 2025
A great host and good atmosphere! Good value for money! All Rum and Gin based would have been our preference, but a good mix of cocktails and had lots of fun!

Amazing Cocktail making class!
