Bilbao Berria: Great Pintxos

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

Came across this by chance. One look through the window at the range on offer and I was an instant fan. Price ranges from 1.30? to 1.50? per item and you pay according to the number of items chosen. You put the cocktail sticks in a small container and that is how the staff know how many items you have eaten. Delicious wines and Cava. It is very popular with locals. Range of food changes all the time.

Favorite Dish: Range changes all the time. Favourite was a goats cheese but there are so many items to chose from including desserts.

Bilbao-Berria: People-watch While You Feast On Tapas

Fantastic spread of tapas! Just go ahead and pick whatever you want, the waitress will count the toothpicks at your table at the end of your meal. Large toothpicks cost 1.50 euro each, small toothpicks 1.35 euro. My friend and I loved the place so much we had lunch there two days in a row!

The variety was slightly different on the two days... and the range is so wide that I can't even begin to describe the tapas. But everything we tried was good :) For dessert lovers, there is also a pretty good range of desserts for you to round up your meal with.

The waiters were friendly enough and most of them understood English, but we did encounter a pretty surly waitress. Not bad enough to spoil our experience though.

For a fantastic view of the Barric Gothic and a chance to people watch, get a seat outdoors. You might have to wait a while because people tend to sit there for quite a while... but definitely get a seat if you can. Also a great place for the guys to sit and wait while the women shop - and there are LOTS of shops around that area.

Favorite Dish: Everything was good!
