ClubOpenMind is Barcelona’s straight-talking gay cruise bar with a clear code and a loyal crowd. The setting is dark, focused, and geared to men who prefer action over small talk. Expect basic bar service at the entrance, lockers or cloakroom, and staff who keep things moving.
Themed nights rotate through jock, sportswear, underwear, naked, and mixed fetish. Read the calendar; the door checks outfits. No phones on the floor, no photos anywhere, and consent rules apply. If you are new, take one lap, find your pace, and follow the room.
Inside, corridors and cabins lead to play zones, with some brighter corners for a breather. Music is functional rather than showy, which suits the purpose. Peak time lands after midnight, especially Thursday to Sunday. Weekdays run quieter but can surprise when conventions or holidays hit town.
Bring simple kit, ID, and card or cash. Hydrate, stash your phone, and keep valuables in the locker. The crowd skews mixed-age and mostly local early, then more visitors later. English is widely understood, but a gracias never hurts.
Location helps. The bar sits within easy reach of Eixample’s tapas and late cafés. Arrive fed, leave room for water, and plan a taxi home.
