Background
About Bar Lorenzo
The Story
Bar Lorenzo sits in the upper reaches of Barcelona's Sarrià-Sant Gervasi district with a deliberate aesthetic brief: revive the spirit of the great neighbourhood bars of 1970s Barcelona. The space, with red neon, carefully composed interior detail, and a small heated terrace open year-round, has become a fixture for the area's local professional class. The bar attracts a clientele that comes for good cocktails and stays for the chuletón.
The Cuisine
Gastrobar kitchen: tapas, platillos, and Spanish classics alongside a short cocktail list. The carta includes fresh market produce with a seasonal focus: guisantes lágrima (tear-drop peas) in spring, black truffle in winter, seasonal mushrooms in autumn, and Cantabrian shellfish. The wine list is short, rotating, and personally curated, ask Lluís for recommendations. Moscow Mule is the signature cocktail. The chuletón (aged 45-day Simmental, sold by the kilo) is the kitchen's centrepiece.
The Team
Bar Lorenzo is run by a small team; Lluís manages the wine and drinks programme. The kitchen team is not individually profiled, the focus is on the bar's collective identity and the neighbourhood institution it has become.

Experience
Bar Lorenzo Dining Experience
A deliberate homage to the Barcelona bars of the 1970s, red neon, warm lighting, precisely composed interior detail. By day, calm and neighbourly; by night, convivial with conversations crossing tables. The terrace (8m²) is heated in winter and is the most sought-after spot. Service is informal but attentive and professional. Cocktails are a serious part of the offer alongside the food.

Jugando al trampantojo, lentejas beluga a lo arroz negro. Vuela la cabeza y pone las papilas a bailar.
República Independiente Bar Lorenzo. Los días de umbrella están al caer y con ella la mejor época del año en La Bonanova. En vuestro bistrot predilecto seréis muy dichosos.
Entre nuestros productos fetiche, la lubina ocupa un lugar capital. Suave, pizpireta, elegante. Hoy va a ser un día de terraceo radical. No dejen de brindar con Gin&Tonics en una sobremesa eterna.
La unidad de cocina. Lo que hacen estos cabritos en un palmo de terreno es de traca. Gracias por convertir el agua en vino.
Poker de entrantes, 'All In' de manual. Cuatro ases que representan toda la gama cromática de la primavera en Bar Lorenzo. El rojo intenso del atún, los ocres de berberechos y zamburiñas, el verde clorofila del guisante lágrima. Para más inri brilla el Sol. No se puede pedir más.
A mesa puesta. Así os esperamos a diario, excepto el día del Señor. Terraza o interior es cosa vuestra.
