PINTXOS
Basque Country’s irresistible bar counter tapas — vibrant, delicious, and full of flavour
ABOUT PINTXITO
At Pintxito, we bring the vibrant Basque flavours to London, Covent Garden. Inspired by the lively pintxo bars of Bilbao, San Sebastián and other towns in the region.
The bar features a concise list of exclusively Basque drinks including delicious Rioja and Txakoli wines (sparkling, white, rosé and even a red), cider and Patxaran, with the whole list served in 75, 125 and 175ml, making it easy to try a few and decide your favourite. Drinks are paired with traditional and modern pintxos alongside seasonally changing tapas and classic Spanish dishes.
The place is small in stature but big on character with a mixture of intimate indoor seating in its historic arches, or al-fresco, ideal for soaking up the buzzing atmosphere of Covent Garden and perfectly positioned for a ringside seat to enjoy the free daily performances of classically trained opera singers.
Whether you’re here for a casual txikiteo (wine bar-hopping tradition) or an evening of catching up with friends over delicious bites, we invite you to experience the magic of Basque hospitality.
PINTXITO MENU
Basque Country’s irresistible bar counter tapas - vibrant, delicious, and full of flavour, found in the bars of San Sebastián, Bilbao and Vitoria in The Basque Country – the stunning region in the north of Spain, famous for its rolling green hills and rugged coastline.
The region has a fantastically rich bounty from the land and sea, and the enormous pride the locals take in their food helps ensure it is widely regarded as Spain’s gastronomic heartland. Locals eat pintxos from midday as a snack or before lunch, or in the evenings before or instead of dinner. Bar hopping from one place to the next makes the whole experience a lively scene. The displays in these bars covering the bar counters make a highly alluring visual impact – you feast with your eyes.
Our Pintxos and Tapas are freshly prepared daily in house, showcasing some classics like Gilda, fresh crab with Espelette peppers, Basque Cheesecake, and twists on classics such as our Chorizo Talos. The menu was designed by our Basque born executive chef Nacho Del Campo.
