El Carmen Bar
El Carmen, located on the iconic Plaza de la Merced, is an LGBT+ friendly bar that is open throughout the day.
Enjoy a tapa and a beer on the outdoor terrace in the sunshine, or equally a lively and colourful show over food in the evening.
One of the most popular events organised at El Carmen is the Drag Bingo which draws big crowds every week.
There are also various shows held on weekends, details of which can be found on the bar’s Facebook page.
This, along with Kipfer & Lover just around the corner, is a popular starting point for a night out.
