Edmund WeeAugust 9, 2018Tapas is great here. Ask the staff and they will bring different stuff freshly made from the kitchen. Sitting restaurant opens at 1pm. But you can stand around for the Tapas
Thomasina OwchDecember 3, 2012€1.95/toothpick, 1/3 friendly waitresses. Stand at the bar area for a visio-gastric experience. They bring out new dishes if you wait a bit. Must try: mushroom cheese/cheese+___ croquettes & plum tart- BrittneyJanuary 27, 2016Great place to go if you're traveling alone but want to soak up the atmosphere. Stand near the bar, help yourself to the pinchos (hot ones come out at intervals), & present your toothpicks at the end!
selenFebruary 22, 2020Perfect pintxos! Great opportunity to taste basque food in Barcelona. All pintxos are same price, 2,10€ each. Cod fish omelete, salmon, fried mushroom and bratwurst are highly recommended.
Annette KuprienkoSeptember 18, 2018Quite interesting format: you choose tapas from shared plates (€2.10 each) and enjoy your wine or cider at the bar. Good option for quick meal
Sevgi DamarJuly 27, 2014Located near Gothic town, this place is one of a kind for quick lunch. My favourite was the tapas with somon and the one with green olive-fish-pepper pickle... So delicious!
Great pinxos, nicee atmosphere and people. Excellent for a lunch or just as a snack. Pinxos around 1,95 euro. Great value
BubbleNovember 15, 2014To try pintxos (pinchos) search for a Basque place. This has excellent pintxos. You ask for a plate. At the end they count the toothpicks. 1.95€ each. Quick bites, eating standing at the bar.
Tim O'HaganJanuary 4, 2020Our family really enjoyed the Pinchos, with an 8 and 10 year old. Great service, fun times!! Recommend.
Mike RawlingAugust 11, 2011Recommended for great, genuine, value (for barcelona) tapas! 2011 they're covering the bar in €1.80 not-to-little gourmet tapas every night. Foodie sincerely recommends - you find many Spanish there!
fr8d GAugust 24, 2019Awesome simple fun place. You gotta try the Txisterra, the crab pintxos, and the deep fried shrimp & bacon nuggets.
Jessica RaeMay 27, 2014always Packed! Tapas—skip the ones on the bar and sit down—should be accompanied by a freezing and refreshing txakolí, the young Basque white wine with a spritzer.
Benjamin JohanssonApril 26, 2016It's seems more touristy than it is. Tapas are incredibly good and pretty special. Come on by, even if it's just for a caña and a small snack!
SuiteLife BarcelonaMarch 21, 2012Many would say this place does the best Pintxos (mini tapas) in Barcelona. Friendly place with around 50 different Pintxos for €1.80 each. Read more
Pietro H-artDecember 29, 2011Here you'll eat authentic basque tapas (€ 1.80 per tapa) and good cava wine. It's located in the gothic quarter, near the Rambla.
David LandsbergAugust 21, 2013They have one specifically amazing Tapas , with cheese, sweet apple sauce and shredded nuts on top. Cannot be beat.- Edmund WeeAugust 9, 2018Tapas! Sitting is open at 1pm. You can enjoy Tapas before that but it's standing.
- Hugo PerezJuly 1, 2010Come with a friend and split the options. Already low costs eat become even cheaper and you can experience even more variety. Couple your meal with a nice red wine spritzer and your gold.
Peter LadaJune 17, 2018Real good in a very touristy corner but the service and food makes up for it.
moJune 10, 2014all pinchos for €1.95. Didn't think it worth it. Staff there are freindly and can speak English though.
Lauren GilmoreMarch 10, 2018Ignore the restaurant. Grab a plate and go to town with the pintxos/pinchos.
Goncalo S.December 11, 2013Currently my favorite pintxos bar in BCN and the prices are ok for the location.
Nicholas LazarouFebruary 14, 2016The Pintxos are sick. We came before the restaurant was open and we just stood at the bar and had a drink and had pintxos.
Awesome place for a quick tapas and vino rosado while taking in the old town sights.
