It is true that pinchos have evolved and the variety available today is much more diverse and select: you can opt for more traditional ones or for true miniature works of art which are worthy of being enjoyed by even the most demanding palates. Ask the locals and you won't go wrong!
When 11 o'clock rolls around, or after 6 o'clock in the afternoon, you'll see how the bars once again begin to vibrate and a colourful pincho parade commences, each pincho dish being originally presented. What are the most typical streets for pinchos? San Nicolás and Estafeta streets, but also the Plaza del Castillo Square and the surrounding area.
If you don't want to eat a sit-down meal, pinchos can be an attractive alternative to a traditional lunch or dinner.
Para fortuna de los mortales, esta opción está siempre disponible...
Aunque la zona de pinchos por excelencia es el casco antiguo de la ciudad, también encontrarás interesantes opciones en los barrios aledaños del Ensanche, San Juan o Iturrama.
