San Sebastián has hundreds of pintxos bars — knowing where to go, what to order, and how to combine everything can be overwhelming.
Join me, Erich, a chef and gastronomic researcher, for an evening through five carefully selected bars. You'll taste 7–10 pintxos and enjoy five drinks, creating a complete dinner rather than a few small samples.
This isn't a bar crawl. You'll learn how locals decide where to eat and what to order — and by the end of the evening, you'll know how to explore San Sebastián's pintxos bars with confidence for the rest of your trip.
The experience is designed for small groups, leaving room for questions and personal recommendations based on your interests and dietary needs.
Afterward, you'll receive a personalized list of places to explore on your own. Book near the start of your trip: you'll leave with a full dinner and the confidence to keep eating well.

2La Concha Beach
You'll learn some historic anecdotes around La Concha Beach. La Concha is referenced in Ernest Hemingway's classic "The Sun Also Rises"; the main character Jake Barnes briefly swims and dives in the Beach of La Concha at the end. It is a sandy beach and shallow substrate, in which the tide fluctuation greatly affects the area available for use. It can be considered an urban beach in widespread use.

3Alderdi Eder parkea
Park created in 1880 on an old military maneuvering ground next to the bay of La Concha. Its first objective was that of a place of recreation and attractions, for which reason a circus, a velodrome and a theater of puppets were located in its enclosure. However, in 1887 a casino was built —the work of Luis Aladrén Mendivil and Adolfo Morales de los Ríos—, which later became the seat of the San Sebastián City Council, for which the entire area was reformed.

4Ayuntamiento de San Sebastian
The City Council building was built up in 1887 at the Gardens of Alderdi-Eder of San Sebastián, next to the Nautical Royal Club, to house the main casino. The opening ceremony was attended by the Queen Maria Christina of Austria. However, it closed as a casino after the ban on gambling in 1924. On April 14, 1928, an agreement was reached to open in this building the Center of Attraction and Tourism, later this moving to a building next to the Hotel María Cristina. On January 20, 1945, the council moved to this building. The architects Alday and Arizmendi amended the initial project in 1943 and turned the former casino into council. Until then, the City Hall was located in the Constitution Square (Parte Vieja), now headquarters of the Municipal Library.
