  • Ànima is a small bar in the Barri Vell that opened in November 2025. Run by a man called Pau. There is a bar area and an area with around six tables. The back door leads to a small outdoor terrace with a table and chairs, which is unpleasant due to it also being a general storage/trash area. There is a tiny kitchen that serves food like tapas and pizza. The walls of Anima are old, uneven stone from Medieval times, like the walls of Girona’s Muralla. An acoustic guitar hangs from the wall, and Pau seems happy for anyone to play music. The WiFi network is called Miwifi_6NNS and the password is TP7NbEUP. @animagirona | Carrer de la Barca, 23.
