Description
This typical Bilbao “botxero”, a classic feature of Bilbao’s restaurant scene, opened its doors in 1878 under the name Bar Colón. Today, following its impressive renovation which has seen it retain much of its authentic character, it is one of the most interesting restaurants in the city’s old quarter. Its beautiful bistro-style interior provides the backdrop for an impressive à la carte (including “media ración” options) that features Bilbao’s most representative and typical dishes, all presented with a contemporary flair, alongside two enticing tasting menus: “Gourmand” and “De Bilbao de toda la vida”. Don’t leave without trying the legendary grilled prawns!
