Just renovated and popular gay club, freshly painted and close to the gay bars. Thursdays only one area open, but in the weekend both of 2 areas are open to the dancing public. One room has dark electronic dance music and the other one plays popular and Spanish music.
Metro is a place where you always know what you are going to get. That can be good and bad. It is small in comparison to a place like D-Boy and about the same size as Arena Madre, a few blocks away. You get the felling you are deep underground because you are. It has a cavern feeling with exposed brick and arches separating the various small spaces. The backroom is a smoker's paradise. Go in ONLY if your lungs can take it, as most Spaniards can.
The music is a wide mixture which again can be good or bad. One minute American pop music, then house, then techno, then spanish, then 80s... It is consistently inconsistent.
Some hot boys from all over. Knowing spanish is helpful but not required. The crowd here does everything late, so getting there before 1 a.m. will find yourself alone with the cleaning and prep crew. Best to go at 2 a.m., even for this small space at a time that others would meet friends THEN go to the main club of the night. Ah, the Spanish.
The drinks are basic, but be certain to know the local lingo. They just don't know a lot of different combinations (or the various names) for many drinks. You may just have to point to what you want mixed.
The darkroom is smelly but does the trick. It is entered by going into the bathroom area and, instead of going to the right for boys, or left for girls, go straight and it will lead you through a zig-zag of hands, baskets, and an occasional bump against the back of someones head as you pass by. No worries.
There is a rear bar where there was pool or something going on but it is secluded a bit and less populated. Pay your 15EURO, head to the rear bar to get your drink and have a good time.
Bulls#!$ this bar is not open at the times stated above. Been there 3 times at the times stated and never been opened....

Metro gay club (mostly white gay club)
Ethnic minorities are not welcome alone so if you belong to a visible minority go along with a white friend.

If there is no other big party going on,,, its metro-time. Its a nice dancing/bar, nice people, young and semi-old, you can sometimes bring your fag-hags... but they need a passport to see at the door to get girls in. Its treu: get in after 2,30 in the morning. Get free tickets at Dittrich. Maybe something strange to say: there is NO TOILETPAPER at the toilet!!
For the rest.. A lot of handsome prostitution guys (mostly brazilian). So dont bother them, when they are working. You have to pay for them.
Get to the Bingo (After 8 years its time to do it in two languages, Diva's from Metro). And go to campy other Dragshows at metro. Its all in Spanish, but lauch,,, thats what the other mostly Spanish people also do while the host is making stupid jokes!
For a tourist, you must have been here. Else you dont know one of the hottest places in Barcelona
Party really starts late here, but it's a good and big place. It looks a little bit like an outdated club with a lot of tiles and clean "hospital" atmosphere. The look is too modern. Entrance is 15 euros but bars like Diettich (same group) sometimes provide free tickets.

Lots of fun. Friendly folks. Fun darkroom, and a rather entertaining show in the back. Would recommend, but don't go until at least 3AM.

Great club, really friendly people, modern looking dance area with a chilled out area where you can play table football. Brilliant music and located in a fantastic area. Would definitely go back again!!!

I really like the place, but not during the weekend. Im back in the end of august
Actually I didn't see much different after the long 'renovation'. Same crappy sound system, same crappy toilets, same crappy in weekend. Just the floor was different and the main-area is smoking-free (just like a lot of bars/clubs in BCN).

Sex, sex, sex... Je gaat naar metro voor te cruisen. Al willen een enkeling nog weleens beweren dat hij gaat voor de gezelligheid. Dat kan alleen op maandag, travestie optreden op deze dag zijn grappig en goedverzorgd. Nadeel: alles op zijn Spaans! Verder is Metro bezaaid met (voornamelijk) Braziliaanse prostituees. De toiletten zijn smerig en voor een grote boodschap moet je de zaak verlaten: geen toiletpapier. Alle overige afvalstoffen kan je er wel kwijt. Muziek is top40/house. In de kleine zaal is er op zaterdag '70/'80 en Spaanse cursus zing/dans...(haha)
Bit like Exit in Amsterdam: not too bad, sure not the best. Bit dark and older. And the toilets are in the darkroom, so not really relaxed to go to the toilet: long waiting times for the toilets because of 2 or 3 inside one toilet... (and not to pie :) ) But still a good combination of younger and bit older guys, up to party.
