Nightlife in Tarragona
From medieval bars in the Part Alta to Serrallo clubs with harbour views. The night in Tarragona is Mediterranean: slow, passionate and very much alive.
La Part Alta
Cocktails among Roman walls
The medieval alleyways of the Part Alta hide some of the most unique bars on the Mediterranean. Small venues with exposed stone, intimate lighting and artisan cocktails between 2,000-year-old walls. The atmosphere is young, cultural and completely authentic — far from mass tourism.
The best selection of Priorat and Montsant wines. Artisan cheese tapas. Intimate atmosphere in a historic cellar.
The reference venue of Tarragona's alternative scene. Live performances at weekends, good craft beer.
The Part Alta's reference vermouth bar. Opens at 11 am. On Sundays, the best vermouth with anchovies in the city.
Artisan cocktails in a space with medieval vaults. The bar is open until midnight.
The alleyways between the Cathedral and Plaça dels Àngels have the greatest concentration of bars. The atmosphere is completely different from any other city.
Rambla Nova and the Eixample
Terraces, drinks and nightlife
Rambla Nova is the axis of Tarragona's most accessible nightlife. The 1-km palm-lined boulevard is packed with dozens of terraces that in summer stay open until 2–3 am. In the Eixample, streets like Carrer de la Unió and Carrer de les Coques have the greatest concentration of bars.
