A craft-leaning bar near the edge of the old town where the beer list runs longer and more curious than the txakoli-and-caña norm. It draws people who want a properly chosen pint alongside their pintxo, in a relaxed room that bridges the traditional Casco Viejo and a more contemporary drinking scene. Easygoing and well-stocked.

Order This
Whatever's interesting on the rotating craft taps — ask the bartender for a local Basque brew if one's pouring. A few pintxos to go with it.
Best Time
Early-to-mid evening before the old-town crowds peak, when you can actually study the beer list.
Know Before You Go
Near Calle Bidebarrieta at the western edge of the Casco Viejo. Come for the beer selection rather than the pintxos — a useful change of pace from the txakoli circuit.
