Cafè Adonis 1940 — Restaurant in Barcelona

Go for the burgers. My son had one and it looked good. The tapas also were ok; the rest of the menu is competent-ish (curried fajitas? Whatever) but edible.

The cocktails are beyond terrible. If I went back I wouldn't trust the bar staff to do more than serve beer.

In case you think I'm exaggerating: we ordered caipirinas. A caipirina has three ingredients (cachaca, lime and sugar). They left one out (sugar), then didn't mix the result, resulting in a tall (should be short/rocks) glass of rapidly-diluting cachaca with unmixed straight lime juice at the bottom. They didn't even serve with a straw, making it almost impossible to drink (it was brimful of crushed ice as it should be). It was the worst I've ever been served, and it was nasty enough that I didn't drink it.

I could forgive them for using warm ice as it was 30 degrees outside, but the rest was just rubbish. If not for the language barrier I would have complained. Oh, and they forgot to bring the water we asked for, and the server disappeared when we wanted to...

Café Adonis might have an identity crisis, but it’s the kind that works in its favor. Is it a cozy coffee shop or a laid-back pub? Honestly, it’s both—and that’s what makes it special.

By day, it serves some of the best coffee in town, with expertly crafted lattes and pastries that make it the perfect spot to start your morning or settle in with a book. But as the sun goes down, Café Adonis seamlessly transforms into a relaxed, welcoming pub with a great selection of craft beers, cocktails, and small plates that keep the atmosphere buzzing without losing its charm.

The ambiance is warm and inviting, with just the right balance of rustic and modern. Whether you're here for a quiet cup of coffee or a lively evening with friends, Café Adonis somehow manages to be exactly what you need it to be. It’s proof that sometimes, you don’t have to choose between two identities—you just have to do...

I had 2 friends from Brazil visiting Barcelona. I figured we could have a good time catching up with a drink here but I was wrong. The very rude Italian waitress made us feel super uncomfortable and when we told her we would just leave after the next drink she started shouting about us to management. Making sure we could all hear it. It was so embarrassing as our friends couldn't believe what was happening. This is a place that has no problem filling their seats and because of that they think it's ok to treat their customers bad. I will never in my life return here and make sure I discourage anyone I know to not visit this poorly ran bar. Congratulations you managed to reach a whole new level of treating...
