Language & Culture

Carrer Blai is a very popular street in Barcelona where you can try all kinds of food, especially mini tapas and pinchos. Come for a coffee, vermouth, a pincho, or treat yourself to a bit of everything! If you enjoy practising languages, learning about different cultures, and meeting new people, this is the place for you. Everyone knows it’s not easy to learn another language, so let’s help each other and have fun at the same time! We are a small to medium-sized group, usually between 10–20 people. Locals, expats, and travellers are all welcome. The events are free. However, to help cover Meetup’s higher organiser fees, I now accept small contributions. A suggested donation of €0.50 would really help support the group. During the event, please support the bar by ordering at least one drink 🍺☕🍷 Any questions? Send me a message! HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON :) Español: Carrer Blai es una calle muy popular de Barcelona donde puedes probar todo tipo de comida, especialmente mini tapas y pinchos. ¡Ven a tomar un café, un vermut, un pincho o date el gusto de probar un poco de todo!

We will try to find tables for everyone and put ESL signs on the tables. See you there!!

The aim of this group is to get together and practice our German. Doesn’t matter if are a beginner or a native speaker. The goal is to speak and improve our German. Everyone is welcome! If the weather is good, look for us in the Biergarten. Pro Tip: Get there before 6:00 for happy hour pricing.

Inspired by our successful events like "Saturday Mornings @ East Market" and other "Pot Luck in the Park" lunches, this gathering promises to be a blend of fun conversations, language exchange, and cultural insights, all while sharing wonderful foods with each other. **Please bring a dish to share and anything you would like to drink.** We will provide plates, plastic silverware and napkins. So, come hungry and ready to chat!
