    Unique gin bar with custom creations! Loved the atmosphere!! The little stools to sit on can be quite uncomfortable after a bit, but if you're lucky, you can get a nice area to sit. Our waitress was super nice and knowledgeable. Every drink was unique and flavorful. Out of everything, the best we're the in house gin and tonics!

    What can I say! Amazing service, amazing drinks, good vibes, great music! We searched on Google for cocktails and this was the first one to come up. We were greeted by Laura and she told us what they serve. I asked for a recommendation of a fruity cocktail and was suggested the ugly duck by Carlos, Amazing! My boyfriend ordered the parrot! And our second round I had the Aviation, which was also delicious! Also loved the variety of different bottle stoppers, from pineapples to antlers! Highly recommend!

    This was the only bar i Barcelona that we decided to visit twice! The service was phenomenal and the cocktails were innovative, well presented and tasted amazing. The interior is decorated in a cozy and quirky way so there is always something to catch your eye. The bartenders have great skills and knowledge and talk you through the menu in a pleasing way. I would love to come back here next time I visit Barcelona!

    This is by far the best bar i have been to in barcelona! Forget paradiso, forget monk and forget any other bar, if you want an amazing cocktail this is where you should go! Let me tell you about the amazing service and drinks we had here, First we were very kindly greeted and got brought to our table, we then got an explenation of the menu and could ask questions. We then saw our cocktails being made with precision and eye for detail! We had amazing drinks and the server would regularly check in on us to see if we needed anything. We ended up having 3 rounds of drinks. The most fun thing on the menu is in my opinion the option for a custom cocktail, you simply tell your likes and dislikes to your server and they will let the bartender make you an amazing custom cocktail! Besides cocktails the bar also serves a in house made beer that is infused with gin and it was to die for!! I normaly dont love beer or gin but this combination was heavenly! In the first round we got the baby groot cocktail and the blind aviator In the second round we got the citrus gaudi and a custom cocktail. And in the last round we got a gin infused beer and another custom cocktail. We had an amazing night and would defenitly come back here again! A special thanks to our server Miguel and the amazing bartender Laura, who made all our cocktail dreams come true <3

    One of the best cocktail bars I’ve been to. The showpiece cocktails on the menu are more than just good presentation; they are well-crafted and balanced. The version of an Aviation was my personal favourite. Aside from the menu, the team really know their classics too and will make you anything you want. It’s great to have someone behind the bar that says “I can make it how you like, or I can give you my version with a little extra…” It all inspires confidence in a bar and team that’s well-deserved. The service is personal and about you as a visitor to the bar, attentive, quick and smooth. A fabulous balance of trend and tradition and somewhere I will visit many times again.

    We recently visited this Bar whilst visiting Barcelona. I can honestly say it was one of the best bars I have ever been to. The drinks were AMAZING & the atmosphere was lively & fun. The barmen were super friendly & even made a cocktail for my friend based on what she liked. You have to visit this place. You will not be disappointed!! We can’t wait to visit again!!

    We really enjoyed having drinks here. The recommendations made by the lovely Zakariah were amazing (cardamom gin and Ginger and hibiscus gin). We are from London but definitely intend to come back next time we are in Barcelona. Lots of love!

    Always a great experience at Dux Gin & Cocktail Bar. Every time I visit Barcelona Dux is a place I have to visit. I’m not really a Gin guy until I come here. The specially crafted Gins are infused in-house to create flavor profiles that are sure to please. Great atmosphere and staff. Went 2 nights with the family and everyone had nothing but good things to say about their experience. Thank you Dux for always making it special.

    Look no further for an amazing cocktail bar. In house made gin. All their drinks are handcrafted and each have very unique presentations to them. Good vibes, cozy, and fabulous service.

    Even the experience painted by travel vloggers who shared their visits on YouTube could not prepare me for my night out at Dux - in person. Perhaps it was the limited scope of the vloggers lens that didn’t fully capture the entire adorable space of Dux. To be fair, I don’t want to spoil the experience for you either! I think it’s better you only concern yourself with the importance stuff: the hospitable warm welcome, cozy atmosphere, and the fine craft cocktails where gin is supreme. On this visit, we enjoyed Dux’s Cardamomo & Old Apoteke (Aged Negroni). While these were the only drinks we had and our first drinks ever at Dux - they will not be our last. We’ve become BIG gin fans and in our recent travels explored a variety in Amsterdam and now Spain. The infused botanicals of Dux’s gin in the Cardamomo balanced the flavors making the beverage smooth and refreshing. While the dressing and presentation of the Old Negroni felt proper, very unique and highly enjoyable. Our service, and our server made us feel at home. Seated by the front window, fireplace adjacent was an enjoyable way to take in some people watching while absorbing the ambiance of Dux. I cannot wait for the next opportunity to return and enjoy more of Dux menu! Thank you for the hospitality and warm welcome of the Dux staff on the Thursday of November 16, 2023.

    Such a cute bar! It is a little bit hidden but that’s the fun part of traveling and searching for new places. Tibo was our bartender and he was amazing! Very informative and was happy to answer all of our questions. We ordered the Ugly Ducking and Baby Groot. Both were delicious! I highly recommend stopping here for drinks. They also have really cool are decor throughout the bar.

    Echoing the same story as many others here. Happened upon this place by a VERY happy accident and was so much better for it. The place had such a chill vibe! All the drinks we tried from the home-infused gins to the baby groot to my personal favorite, the Japanese Antidote, were absolutely on point! Angel runs a damn fine bar and is a a great guy to chat with! Definitely keeping this as my go to stop every time I’m in Barcelona.

    Wonderful little gin bar at the end of the alley. Service is top notch and cocktails are lovely.

  • 5/5 Tom Jess D. 1 year ago on Google
    A bar with a nice vibe. As there are many bars in this neighbourhood that offer cocktails and gin, one has to find a way of standing out. Dux does this with its own gin creations which are worth trying and some special cocktails. Friendly staff adds to the experience.

    Un lugar mágico y encantador. Su camarero Zacharia, atento y servicial! Recomendable 100% para escuchar música tranquila y animada y suave para poder conversar junto con un cocktail o gintonic de lujo! Genial!

    Nice cocktail bar with unique cocktails! The free water is also a nice touch! Price is a little expensive but worth it for the uniqueness. Bar looks cozy too.

    These guys need to learn how to talk to their customers. If you want to feel ignored, this spot is for you

  • 5/5 Laura G. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice Gin and Cocktailbar. We had to wait in line outside for a short period of time but it was ok. The service is great. You get a bottle of water for free after arriving. The cocktails are great.

    Really cool vibe and good drinks. Staff is really friendly.

  • 5/5 David C. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is absolutely amazing, with it’s own homemade gin, beautifully handcrafted cocktails, Dux has a sumptuous environment and cool, great looking crowd. If you’re in Barcelona, don’t make the mistake of missing out on this gem. Try popping in on a Sunday night, it’s still busy but not as crazy as a Friday or Saturday night, so you’ll find yourself really enjoying the vibes. You’ll thank me!

  • 5/5 Michelle N. 7 months ago on Google
    We discovered this hidden gem that serves great gin! We ordered the fresh mint and ugly duckling (couldn’t resist it being instagrammable). Both drinks were well made and not too sweet! Very friendly customer service and trendy ambience.

  • 5/5 Carol M. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic service and even better drinks. Bartender knowledge was second to none. Even got to keep my duck from the drink 😁 Will definitely be back to sample more from the menu 😁

    One of the best cocktail bar's I've been too. Really enjoyed the gins and special cocktails particularly the Duck in a bath tub! Reasonably priced and great atmosphere, if you're in Barcelona make sure you swing by you won't regret it.

  • 5/5 Harry B. 1 year ago on Google
    Dux Gins is a very high quality cocktail bar. They distil their own alcohol for use in their cocktails. The bar staff are extremely talented and highly skilled in making all the cocktails. They will happily answer any questions about the drinks and even will make you your own bespoke cocktail is you tell them what you like / dislike! The cocktails are roughly €12 each but that's a fair price for what you recieve

  • 4/5 Ankit V. 1 year ago on Google
    This bar has wide variety of gin Tonics and cocktails.. they have special cocktails for Instagrammers (groot, bathtub etc). Ambience is nice and this bar can accommodate big groups too… This bar has been awarded with top 10 bartender’s in Spain. Staff is nice and welcoming

  • 5/5 Sawyer F. 1 year ago on Google
    This place deserves more love. Some of the best cocktails we’ve ever had, both gin and otherwise. The bartenders were friendly and helped guide us and the drinks were superb. Will definitely be back next time we’re in Barcelona!
