“A quirky spot blending Cuban flair with Scottish charm and a splash of punk in Barcelona’s vibrant El Born. Colonial meets the Highlands decor with wooden shutters, vintage tiles, and plenty of plaid, all with a modern twist. With a cool bar, restaurant, and comfy lounges, it's a laid-back haven. ”
