What makes La Chapelle stand out

La Chapelle is one of the bars that have shaped the Gaixample for many years. The name says it all: the white-tiled walls are decorated with crucifixes, Madonna figures and Jesus signs, all with a wink. Some of the art on the walls is for sale.

The bar opens in the afternoon and is more a place for chatting than partying. Guests praise the good drinks, especially the mojitos, and the attentive team. It’s popular for pre-drinks, and you can also get discounted tickets for the Arena clubs here.

Atmosphere and crowd

The crowd is mostly male, roughly between 30 and 50, with all types and body shapes. Later in the evening they’re joined by guests moving on from here to the clubs.
