Our Story: Crafting an unforgettable slice of Barcelona in the heart of Oakwood.

Greetings from Cafe Bar El Born! Nick, Nicola, and our delightful part-time meet and greeter, Olive, extend a warm welcome.

In June 2023, we took the reins from Lee and Kathy, who generously nurtured our dream of owning a cozy little bar. Our vision is simple – to create a wonderful atmosphere with great music, delightful beers, and fresh, flavourful cocktails.

Wondering about the name “El Born”? It’s inspired by one of our favorite places, Barcelona, specifically the charming El Born district.

If you ever find yourself in Barcelona, we encourage you to visit Bar El Born in the heart of El Born, where we discovered a beautiful little bar with a changing vibe throughout the day the very essence and inspiration of what we aim to bring to Oakwood..

We’re excited for you to experience Cafe Bar El Born and hope you enjoy your time with us.

Feel free to follow us on social media where we will keep you updated with our acoustic music dates and please tag us in your photos of you enjoying your visit… Cheers and warm regards from Nick, Nicola, and, of course, Olive!
