Paradiso

Tucked behind what seems to be an unassuming pastrami shop in Barcelona's Born district lies a portal to a world of cocktail wizardry. Step through the retro fridge door and find yourself in Paradiso, where the ambiance feels like being inside a fantastical wooden creature, with its curving ribs and whimsical touches. The avant-garde cocktail culture here is led by the visionary Giacomo Giannotti and his creative Italian team, constantly pushing the boundaries with high-quality ingredients and innovative techniques.

The menu is not just a list of drinks; it’s an exploration into "The Mysteries of the Universe," with each cocktail arriving in a vessel that’s an artwork in itself. Expect multi-layered flavors that surprise and delight, crafted in the Paradiso Lab where creativity knows no bounds. Even if you're not in the mood for alcohol, their imaginative non-alcoholic concoctions will ensure you don’t miss out on the experience. While they don’t offer a full dining menu, the flavorful pastrami treats from the front shop perfectly complement your drink.
