Pintxos tour in Logroño: flavours and tradition
A gastronomic journey through Logroño’s best pintxos bars, enjoying both classic and unique flavors. From Plaza del Mercado to Calle San Agustín, discover the culinary gems of the famous Calle Laurel and its surroundings.
Begin in Plaza del Mercado, in front of the majestic Co-Cathedral of Santa María de la Redonda. Enjoy a coffee with a light pintxo, such as a Spanish omelet skewer or a jamón montadito, in one of the nearby bars to start your day.
Head to Calle Laurel, the heart of Logroño’s tapas scene. Visit some of its most iconic bars like, Bar Soriano, famous for its grilled mushrooms with secret sauce, or Bar Ángel, known for its “zapatillas”—large ham sandwiches. Don’t miss Bar Blanco y Negro, where the anchovy and boquerón (marinated white anchovy) combo is an explosion of flavors, and La Taberna del Laurel, offering a juicy beef sandwich with piquillo peppers.
If you want to continue beyond Laurel, head to Calle San Juan, home to more fantastic pintxos bars like Bar Torres, known for its grilled pig’s ear, or Bar El Cid, where you can savor a goat cheese toast with tomato jam.
Make your way to Calle San Agustín for more traditional bites like in Bar Pata Negra, offering a delicious spiced pork skewer (pincho moruno), or in El Soldado de Tudelilla, famous for its Bacalao a la Riojana (Riojan-style cod).
Finish your tour with a leisurely walk through Plaza del Espolón, where you can relax by the equestrian statue of Espartero, soaking in the atmosphere of Logroño. If you have room for dessert, stop by a nearby ice cream shop for a sweet ending to your pintxos adventure.
