Sorcha Nic Craith

Great for pintxos ! Ask the waitress/waiter if you’re unsure what to choose. We got a mix of cold and hot. All really good, especially the crab ! Here is the Morcilla and Goat cheese

Chris Chen

Really enjoyed their famous spider crab gratin and the squid gratin . Very reasonable prices.

Matthias

For my personal taste, many of the pintxos were a little too creamy but the tuna bit with the onion on top was to die for! ???????? Generally, a great selection of tapas/ pintxos .????

Joel Wong

Excellent Pinxto ! Go to the bar to order ! The Salamon Marinado was the best! Make Sure to order a glass of cider !

Kurt Haa

Outstanding pintxos ! Try the black squid pate with cheese , the foie with jelly . The staff is alright and the ambience is Ok

Steve Curati

Took a few aborted attempts to get here, but worth the effort. Quickly became my favourite in Bilbao. Such good pinchos . The kids rated it joint best tortilla in Spain (in a non-exhaustive test)

Greg Milani

I went twice tô this place! Staff is very nice and everything we've tried was Good! I really liked the cheese pitxo

Mark Nahmias

Great, great, great. El Globo is my favorite among all pintxos bars after zealously trying more than 10 of those in Basque country .

Joan Rovira González

Strongly recommended: fungus small cake , txangurro mini-toast, gratin codfish . Go there before 11 pm if you want to taste it! Enjoy tasty pintxos in the city center!

Chris T

Pintxos with many choices look at the 2 sides of the bar ! Enjoy with a copa of white wine or a natural sidra.

Eamonn Carey

Try the gratinated spider crab pintxos . Incredible. Lovely place to stand outside when the weather is good.

Dab Bod

Good. Very good service . Try the pintxo de foie and everything else.A good and tasteful introduction to bilbao gastronomy .

ALIEN

All the seafood pintxos were seriously yummy but definitely do not miss the one in the photo!

Melankolina

Gets mega busy, but turnaround of tables is quite quick. Queue up for the terrace seats for less sweat, shoving and volume.

Hector Cm

Awesome!!! Better than Viña del Ensanche(viña Ensanche is more Posh)" and expensive ). Txangurro and Atun Rojo a must with txakoli.

Thierry Meier

Very good value . If you want to eat a lot, come here. Tapas are between 1.50€ and 3€ and the quality is good!

Kriss Ariana

A nice place to relax n enjoy wine n tapas in Bilbao. Strongly recommended!

Jorrit de Boer

Seems to be one of the best places in Bilbao for pinxtos . Who am i to disagree, we loved them :)

Roberto Yanguas

Welcome to the king of pintxos . Not sure if the best ones, but probably the most visually spectacular bar .

Alyssa Guo

Balacao, foie , and the tuna pinxtos are great. Everything we ordered was excellent and the prices were very reasonable

Tanya Moseeva

For those who got tired of pintxos , try "special" salad and squid croquettes ;) Don't forget a jar of sangria .

Giorgos Katho

Very nice and fast service . The salad was very good and good wine selection .

Merve Nahmias

The crab pintxo was too creamy for me. Loved ensalada de marisco con gamba

Jose Ignacio Navarro

Excelente barra de pintxos . Los mejores el de txangurro y el de foie . De los mejores sitios de Bilbao. Muy recomendable aunque a veces muy lleno de gente

Ashu

ALUCINANTE. Ha sido entrar dentro y ver todos los pinchos en la barra, buenísimos (destacar el de Atún rojo con cebolla caramelizada y rucula !!) los txipirones encebollados tmb

İlker Ergen

Bence karşısındaki bardan daha uygun fiyatlı ve sıcak bir yer. Çok tapas yemedik ama yediklerimiz güzeldi. Buraya daha fazla lokal geliyor sanki.

Juanan Urrutia

El gratinado de txipiron y el de txangurro son obras maestras absolutas. Los mejores pintxos de la zona de Diputación.
