Barcelona Wine Bar tests Sundy Village after dark

The Spanish tapas spot opened in January at Atlantic and Swinton

The setup: Barcelona Wine Bar opened at Sundy Village in January, putting a full-service Spanish tapas-and-wine room at 22 W Atlantic Ave.

Why it matters: Sundy Village has been pitched as more than another office-and-retail project; Barcelona is the first real dinner test of whether Atlantic and Swinton can pull evening foot traffic west.

Make it useful: Barcelona's Delray page has reservations, dinner and brunch menus, happy hour, and the wine list in one place.
