👍👍 The Wicklow Arms is a gem, nestled right in the centre of Bilbao. Michael is a gent, who makes one feel right at home right away, in his little hive of activity, which oozes convivial charm, and is well worth a visit if in the vicinity at all.

👍👍 Popped in for one, stayed for ten. Had a blast with strangers. Made a nice change to go somewhere that is an actual bar with music, as opposed to 'delicatessen with beer'. Shoutout to Jorge, Tom, Rachael and Sergio, the owner, who put Whitesnake on the jukebox for me. BOSH.

👍 It is an amazing spot, but don't go in here if you expect to find a pub. It's more like a cocktail bar, which by the looks of it is more than a decent cocktail bar!

👍👍 Aún no sé cómo lo hacen, cualquier combinado o cóctel que pidas aquí, será el mejor de tu vida. Se nota la mano, buen hacer y experiencia del dueño. Además te preparan cualquier cosa que pidas. Todo de 10. Gracias.

👍👍 The best selection of whisky's in Bilbao... In fact, the best I've seen anywhere in a long time. Great ambiance with live music playing along on some nights. Just a nice place to sit and drink, doesn't get any better than that.

👍👍 Trato muy agradable, una idea distinta a la hora de ir a picar algo o incluso acabar comiendo, estupendos los txipirones en su tinta y la tarta de queso, y buen cafe

👍👍 Bitter Bilbao is definitely worth visiting. Pintxos are delicious, drinks are refreshing and Jorge is a hell of an entertainer. It was pleasure to spend evening chatting with him while sipping our cocktails. When you are here: - try the vermouth Jorge makes himself, - jamon + bread = ❤️ (it's very...

👍 We went on a Saturday for lunch and we were expecting a bigger pinchos bar, based on what we had read in the reviews. However they only had 3 different types of skewers. They were the ones we ordered, they were delicious. The waiter who served us was very nice.

👍👍 Menu of the day for €12 with a very good quality/price ratio. Some lentils with sacraments, a knuckle to take it easy and rice pudding was my choice (I recommend a later siesta). The kindness and good predisposition of the staff made me feel at home.

👍👍 Especializado en cervezas artesanas. Y lo más importante, que la gente que lo regenta sabe de ello.

👍 A nice café- bar in the old town of Bilbao. Great Pintxos, friendly staff, fair prices. Give it a chance and sit outside, you can really feel the vibes of the town. I really loved the sandwich with the calamari that had an extra touch of olive oil. It was literally melting in the mouth.

👍👍 One of the best pintxos morunos in Bilbao, certainly the best in old town (casco viejo). I've been here multiple times, and it has never disappointed.

👍👍 Gente muy maja siempre. Cafe especial.. Se sale de bueno y tomarte una copa bien hecha.. No tiene precio. Muy recomendable Graciass.
