This is my absolute favorite bar in Barcelona! The mojitos are delicious, and the bartenders are amazing as well! MERIT & MARIANO - thank you!!! I have been coming here for 4 months and these bartenders are so friendly and nice to all of the guest. they have a variety of homemade mojitos (normal, strawberry, peach) and they are all only 4 euros each. there is a nice upstairs with a few tables and a bar, and on busy nights, the basement club is open with a large bar and seating area. it is in a great location, right next to port vell, a short walk to the Barceloneta beach, clubs, and restaurants. I highly recommend for anyone that visits or lives in Barcelona!

Very affordable and nice bar. We had a bottle of nice Rioja for €15 which was accompanied by a nice empanadilla. Very cool place after a whole day of sightseeing!

Super cool bar with super cool people! Ask Tincho for his secret drink (I totally recommend it) and help him finding a name for it ;)

The photos of the interior of the bar posted by previous reviewers look different from the one we visited, but must be the right one. We were at The Mint as it said that on the sign above the front door. Walked by at around 4pm on a weekday looking for a coffee and a place to sit, and found this place which was fairly quiet. We didn't think it was open, but the lady cleaning up one of the tables outside the bar said they were open. So we went in. Ordered a wine and a coffee which were very reasonably priced. They have a toilet inside. We stayed about 1 hour. There were about 2 other customers at that time

Cool bar in Barceloneta area, good music and fairly priced drinks. However getting service from one of the two bars regardless of the amount of people is difficult. The bartenders have a when I am ready attitude. Overall nice place to stop by but many bars offering a similar experience.

I just wanted to say that this is a great bar! The decor is really nice, the music is good and the staff are super friendly and amazing! There's a smaller 'gin' bar upstairs, quite chilled out and was perfect for a quieter couples escape. Downstairs is a much bigger space, lots of tables and private little areas and nice red lighting. The mojitos are great, only 4 euros and super strong and tasty. Upstairs we tried one of their home made gins as well, they have a huge selection, I had a strawberry mint and it was fantastic. This is definitely my go-to bar whenever I am in Barcelona!

Rachel does make a great mojito, it's true! And you're right, the gins are also fantastic. Try the home made ones!

Great new bar in Barcelona near to Barceloneta. Great ambience with their trademark lighting and the bar staff are very knowledgable and suggested different twists on the Gin Tonic standards. Also very attractive young ladies! Well worth a visit

Mint has everything. Great atmosphere, cheap and strong drinks, and an amazing staff. There is an upstairs and downstairs area and they both have different vibes depending what you're in the mood for. I mostly hung out upstairs and the bartender, Rachael, was hilarious and you could tell she loves working there. One of the managers, Amanda, was running around making sure everyone had drinks and was always smiling :) I will definitely be going back.

I've never to Barcelona. Is there a dress code on a Saturday night or is it ok to wear shorts?

In general it's fine but some places will ask you to wear trousers.
We're fine unless it's a not sport short, if you know what I mean.

Hey Juulia! We are opening the basement on tuesdays, thursdays, fridays and saturdays, at 22.30h. But things will probably change soon as some changes are coming.
Let me know if you want it open for some special occasion or something!
