BCN Pàdel is two minutes from the Gothic Quarter — which makes this route almost embarrassingly good. We play two hours in the morning: I'll match you against locals at your exact level and we'll run a sociable, competitive session. Then I take you on a pintxos crawl I've refined over ten years of living here. Five bars, no tourist traps, and enough anchovies to make you rethink Catalan cuisine. Jordi grew up 400 metres from the Sagrada Família and has been coaching padel since 2018.
The pintxos crawl covers five bars across the Gothic Quarter and El Born. I pick the order based on what's fresh. Allow two hours and arrive hungry.
