    Tapas 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

    €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

    Great 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!

    Perfect 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.

    Quite 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

    Located 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!

    To 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.

    Recommended 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!

    Awesome simple fun place. You gotta try the Txisterra, the crab pintxos, and the deep fried shrimp & bacon nuggets.

    always 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.

    It'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!

    Here you'll eat authentic basque tapas (€ 1.80 per tapa) and good cava wine. It's located in the gothic quarter, near the Rambla.

    Many 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

    Come 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.

    all pinchos for €1.95. Didn't think it worth it. Staff there are freindly and can speak English though.

    The Pintxos are sick. We came before the restaurant was open and we just stood at the bar and had a drink and had pintxos.
