Pelin Burcu K.July 20, 2018Everything is good. I love this place in Bilbao. I prefered to drink white wine. It was wonderful and the all the tapas that i ate wonderful😋 must to come and see🤟🏻🎈
Sorcha Nic CraithMay 23, 2019Great 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 ChenMay 25, 2017Really enjoyed their famous spider crab gratin and the squid gratin. Very reasonable prices.
MatthiasOctober 16, 2018For 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 WongSeptember 17, 2016Excellent Pinxto! Go to the bar to order ! The Salamon Marinado was the best! Make Sure to order a glass of cider!
Kurt HaaDecember 31, 2017Outstanding pintxos! Try the black squid pate with cheese, the foie with jelly. The staff is alright and the ambience is Ok
Steve CuratiOctober 7, 2016Took 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)
Chris TDecember 28, 2016Pintxos with many choices look at the 2 sides of the bar! Enjoy with a copa of white wine or a natural sidra.
Greg MilaniSeptember 27, 2016I went twice tô this place! Staff is very nice and everything we've tried was Good! I really liked the cheese pitxo
Mark NahmiasOctober 17, 2013Great, great, great. El Globo is my favorite among all pintxos bars after zealously trying more than 10 of those in Basque country.
Joan Rovira GonzálezSeptember 27, 2013Strongly 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!
ALIENOctober 20, 2022All the seafood pintxos were seriously yummy but definitely do not miss the one in the photo!
Dab BodJune 4, 2017Good. Very good service. Try the pintxo de foie and everything else.A good and tasteful introduction to bilbao gastronomy.- Eamonn CareyMarch 8, 2019Try the gratinated spider crab pintxos. Incredible. Lovely place to stand outside when the weather is good.
- Hector CmFebruary 8, 2014Awesome!!! Better than Viña del Ensanche(viña Ensanche is more Posh)" and expensive). Txangurro and Atun Rojo a must with txakoli.
Thierry MeierOctober 5, 2014Very good value. If you want to eat a lot, come here. Tapas are between 1.50€ and 3€ and the quality is good!
Kriss ArianaOctober 6, 2014A nice place to relax n enjoy wine n tapas in Bilbao. Strongly recommended!
Tanya MoseevaApril 10, 2014For those who got tired of pintxos, try "special" salad and squid croquettes;) Don't forget a jar of sangria .
Welcome to the king of pintxos. Not sure if the best ones, but probably the most visually spectacular bar.- Alyssa GuoJuly 10, 2013Balacao, foie, and the tuna pinxtos are great. Everything we ordered was excellent and the prices were very reasonable
Jorrit de BoerApril 25, 2015Seems to be one of the best places in Bilbao for pinxtos. Who am i to disagree, we loved them :)
OmniWired 🍹September 10, 2015love this place every tapa and every pincho is a piece of art. cheap too
Giorgos KathoSeptember 8, 2018Very nice and fast service. The salad was very good and good wine selection.
MelankolinaSeptember 3, 2016Gets mega busy, but turnaround of tables is quite quick. Queue up for the terrace seats for less sweat, shoving and volume.
Maria Inês MagalhãesFebruary 9, 2020Always very full of people! I found it expensive and not very nice
OiqDecember 17, 2014Food was ok but service was very bad. They are not answer when you make a question. They are kind of disturbed by you
Jose Ignacio NavarroSeptember 15, 2016Excelente 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

AshuJuly 28, 2014ALUCINANTE. 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 ErgenMay 30, 2015Bence karşısındaki bardan daha uygun fiyatlı ve sıcak bir yer. Çok tapas yemedik ama yediklerimiz güzeldi. Buraya daha fazla lokal geliyor sanki.
עליא iגאםיMarch 9, 2013Los mejores pintxos confirmo, y uno de los mejores Txakoli. Y de la frecuentación: gente local, nada turistas! :) El mejor de Bilbao para mi, nada q decir!!! ;)
El gratinado de txipiron y el de txangurro son obras maestras absolutas. Los mejores pintxos de la zona de Diputación.
Pedro HerranzMay 4, 2019Esta todo buenísimo. El bacalao gratinado es como mousse excelente y el atún espectacular. Un trato, buen precio. Es un lugar de pintxos seguro.
Juan MonteseguroJanuary 28, 2017El de txagurro es impresionante! Llore de la alegría. Pura pirotecnia gastronómica
