Bar Bergara
The Gros pioneer that helped invent the modern pintxo.
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
Across the river in Gros, Bergara is one of the bars credited with elevating the pintxo into miniature haute cuisine. Its award cabinet is heavy with classics: the Txalupa, a hot puff-pastry boat of mushrooms, prawns and gratineed cheese, plus the Udaberri and Itxaso. A bright, buffet-style counter and a loyal local following away from the Old Town crush.
Editor's Tip
The Txalupa is the must-order; Gros is a calmer, more local alternative to the Parte Vieja scrum.
