  Good for cheap drinks in plastic cups. There are bands there on weekends. It’s got a great outdoor area but always seems empty while Dukes is rammed.

  Firstly the name Barca only and only reminds me of the best football team in the world, (you know which one i am talking about hopefully) but this place has got nothing to do with that. I secretly wished that this place would have a Spanish vibe at the least because its not just the football team but, Barcelona as a city itself is just incredible. I have some awesome friends who invite me for the opening nights of new pubs and bars and yes I was invited for a similar do yesterday again for this place… ok ok I was late, not a bit but very. I was supposed to go there at 7 but I managed to get in only around 11 (I had work). The only problem with these kind of events are you bump into pretty much everyone you know if you work in media in Manchester (all these media kats just love such nights and god forbid if its a Thursday night). Castlefield is known for the posh crowd because the folks from Spinningfields just move here once the swanky bars there are shut and yesterday was no different — Men in suits, Women in designer casuals and lots of alcohol with a bit of pretense (ok, may be a little more than a bit but not as much as Spinningfields for sure). BarCa has a great outdoor patio so definitely look out for it when the sun is shining, I think when Dukes gets overcrowded on a beautiful sunny day, this is the place you should hop to. The drinks were fairly cheap — 2 tequila shots and one pint was only 9 pounds (not bad eh?). There is a dance floor inside as well which seemed to be buzzing. But what’s with the interiors? Why is it not up-to the standards? I understand grungy looking interiors in Norther Quarter or Oxford road, but for a bar in Castlefield I expect a bit of swank! The location is great because as I said its located right in the center of Castlefield so if you work around there do hop in for a drink. Verdict : I think I need a better picture of this place, so probably visiting some other time when the sun is shining would be a good idea! eatwithmeshrimoyee.com
