Barcelona Wine Bar

"Barcelona Wine Bar is the Vicks VapoRub of restaurants. The tapas bar is a reliable Lagniappe dupe, a great place to meet for a first date, and the solution to just about any dining dilemma within a five-mile radius of the Wynwood Walls. They have a long and suspiciously affordable wine selection with bottle options under $40. The tapas, like the mussels with sofrito, are really tasty and best paired with their dimple-less focaccia. And the already cheap wine selection gets even cheaper during Happy Hour—it’s half-off bottles of sparkling wine Monday through Thursday between 4pm and 6pm. This is where you should spend the last hour of your workday with a glass of albariño to go with those damn spreadsheets." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino

"When: 4-6pm, Monday-Friday The Deal: Half-Off All Bottles Of Sparkling Wine, $7 Cocktails Barcelona Wine Bar is a reliable Lagniappe dupe, a great place to meet for a first date, and the solution to just about any dining dilemma within a five-mile radius of the Wynwood Walls. The tapas, like the mussels with sofrito and the pressed artichoke on olive tapenade, are really tasty and best paired with their dimple-less focaccia. And the already cheap wine selection gets even cheaper during Happy Hour (mini martinis are also on the menu). This is where you should spend the last hour of your work day with a $7 espresso martini to go with those damn spreadsheets. " - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer

"The Price: $7 It wouldn’t be incorrect to categorize Barcelona Bar’s mini dirty martini as more of a medium dirty martini. But we’re not complaining, especially because it costs just $7. They’re only available during this Wynood Spanish restaurant’s Happy Hour from 4pm to 6pm Monday through Thursday and 2pm to 6pm on Fridays. So it’s a good place to start a mini martini crawl, since it’s just a block away from Pastis. And if you’re bringing along someone who thinks martinis taste like gasoline, they also have mini gimlets on the Happy Hour menu." - ryan pfeffer
