Queer as they come, La Federica is a cozy indie welcoming place at the centre of Parallel. They serve good cocktails, host drag shows, and endorse local artists with frequent exhibitions. And the bartenders are sexy! 🐺😁

After living in Barcelona for two years, I can confidently say that La Federica is my favorite bar in the city.This cozy, independent bar boasts a friendly staff and fantastic cocktails. What truly sets it apart, though, is their deep engagement with the community. From showcasing local artists to collaborating with charitable causes, La Federica is more than just a bar—it’s a hub of positive impact.I wish more entrepreneurs had the vision of the folks at La Federica! They’ve created a safe, cool space where you can have a lot of fun while also making a difference in the community.If you’re a tourist, I highly recommend visiting on Thursdays to catch Lady Red Velvet’s outstanding and out-of-the-box shows. I go as often as I can and have had plenty of memorable Thursday evenings there.

Came here for a drag show and left before it even started because of the lack of accessibility of the space. It really seemed like the priority was on cramming as many people as possible into a space that maybe just is t suited for events, which unfortunately means excluding those with disabilities. I’d avoid this place if you’re a person with a physical disability or someone in a larger body.

Always catching a good mood when going there. A lot of LGBTQ events going on during all week, with drag performances, concerts and exhibitions. And also a cute, easy, welcoming and friendly bar to go catch some drinks.

Incredible place!!! Love the upbeat vibe and the atmosphere. The people that work there are super nice. This bar does a lot of good community involvement and throws really fun parties! I have had the privilege of spending many nights there when I was living in Barcelona and make sure every time I am back there to pop and say hello. Would definitely recommend this place. Make sure to check out their Instagram to keep up with the latest event agenda since they are always throwing something thematic.

Nice bar in Barcelona! Bartenders are super cool, they have a nice selection of beverages, including beers and spirits! Don't forget to ask for the vermouth, theirs is actually pretty good. Also, they do serve one of the best margaritas in town.It has a great atmosphere. Most of the evenings they organize some kind of show such as live music, drag shows, gatherings to watch RuPaul's Drag Race and many other things... And when not, just talk to the rest of the people in the bar, who are usually super nice!

I am here alone by myself but I don't feel lonely at all! The staffs are super hot and friendly as well, they taught me some Espanol with the supererial passions. Love it and any gays who visit Barcelona should give it a go here.. also, if you want to enjoy the show of drag queens, maybe sure you book your ticket and learn Spanish!!!!!!
