Boadas climbs to No. 52 and Foco lands at No. 90 in The 50 Best Bars 2026's 51–100 list
Two Barcelona bars are in the 51–100 section of The 50 Best Bars 2026: Boadas, up 33 places to No. 52, and Foco at No. 90. The top 50 is revealed in Milan on 7 October.
Boadas and Foco are Barcelona's two entries in the 51–100 section of The 50 Best Bars 2026, published on 23 September. Boadas, on Carrer dels Tallers, climbs 33 places to No. 52, and Foco, in Gràcia, is No. 90, one place lower than in 2025. Both were also on Europe's 50 Best Bars 2026.
The ranking comes from an academy of more than 800 drinks experts across 29 regions, each voting for eight bars based on their experiences over the previous 18 months, with voting independently adjudicated by Deloitte.
The top 50 will be revealed in Milan on 7 October 2026. Barcelona had two bars in last year's top five, Sips at No. 3 and Paradiso at No. 4. Dr. Stravinsky, No. 83 last year, isn't in this year's 51–100, so its 2026 position will be known on 7 October if it makes the top 50.
