Café Royale

C/Nou de Zurbano 3

Early in the evening it’s a chilled place to slump around on sofas, but even later, when Fred Guzzo’s funk, soul and jazz-driven beats and the doorman’s snotty attitude are cranked up a notch, the youngish mixed tourist/local crowd seems happier rubbing up against each other in the narrow bar than on the dancefloor.

    The old Café Royale was getting worse and worse...horrible waiters and too packed... so it wasn´t such a bad idea to close it down. Posted on Oct 21 2007 07:28

    Cafe Royale is now officially reopened and is called Suite Royale. It is situated in the basement of a nice hotel in Barceloneta (the nearest metro) and the address is
    Pg Joan de Borbo 54
    The old resident Fred Guzzo is back behind the decks and the venue is as swanky as ever.. Posted on Jul 01 2007 14:39
