Ici et Là
At the nexus of design, arts and crafts, you’ll find Ici et Là, featuring handmade art, furniture and more — all made in Barcelona. At Passatge Sert, you’ll find their gallery-showroom, where you can get a sample of their beguiling, bespoke creations, which are used for private and hotel/commercial projects alike. Our favorites from their online store include the “Tea Light” floor lamp, the small ant wire sculptures and, of course, the “Fat Ass” armchair.

Grilled Cheese Studio + Finesse Films
No, this isn’t another cheesy American restaurant in Barcelona. At first this space comes off as an art gallery, but within actually lies a small open-floor office and in-house studio, which serve as headquarters for two production companies: Grilled Cheese Studio and Finesse Films. The former specialize in photography and videos for commercials and more, with a Latin Grammy nomination to boot. The latter are masters at shooting in high-speed to deliver larger-than-life cinematography.

Nomad Coffee Lab & Shop
Unique seasonal favorites like “sangria espresso” and “pa amb tomàquet espresso” prove that Nomad is by no means an ordinary cup of Joe. Roasted in Barcelona, the company touts freshly harvested, single origin coffees and is dedicated to the art and science of coffee. True to its wandering name, Nomad is can be found all over the city. Here on Passatge Sert is where they experiment with recipes and preparation methods. In Poblenou, they offer training courses, and in El Raval they’ve set up another small shop too.

Talisman Bistro Bar
Coming out of Passatge Sert on the Trafalgar side and it’s hard to miss the royal blue awnings of Talisman. Tall ceilings give away to a polished bar that recalls the Blue Bar at New York’s Algonquin Hotel. “Cocktail hour” meets “bistro chic” here, with Mediterranean-inspired dishes, Spanish and Catalan tapas, over 70 wines from 10 different countries, as well as 15 kinds of cava and champagne. In the evening, this classy space doubles as an intimate concert venue. Follow them on Instagram for their upcoming music schedule!
