Good Pints. Good Craic. Right on the Water.

Cold Guinness, a proper whiskey shelf and home-style food, steps from the Barceloneta harbour — open every day of the week.

What's On

Live Sport

Promotional graphic for live sport screenings at The Fastnet

The Fastnet is where Barcelona comes to watch the game. We show Premier League, La Liga and Champions League football, Six Nations and international rugby — and more sports events besides. Big screens, cold Guinness, and a crowd that cares about the score as much as you do. Come early for the big ones — seats fill up fast.

Our Story

A Proper Irish Pub, Barcelona Side

The Fastnet brings the real thing to Passeig de Joan de Borbó — a well-kept pint of Guinness, Murphy's on tap, and a whiskey shelf worth taking your time over. Rugby and football play on the screens, and the regulars mix easily with whoever's just walked in off the port.

The kitchen keeps it honest: tapas boards, hearty curries, stacked burgers and plates built to go with a pint, not compete with it.
