The hillside residential quarter east of Casco Viejo, climbing to the Basilica of Begoña, with neighbourhood pintxo bars and the calmer end of the pintxo crawl.
Begoña climbs the hillside east of Casco Viejo toward its basilica, a residential quarter where the pintxo crawl slows to neighbourhood pace. The bars here pour for locals rather than tour groups, which makes it the calm end of a Bilbao evening. Come after the old town gets loud.
The full Begoña food guide is still being researched. In the meantime, see the Bilbao food guide for the places we cover, or the neighbourhood index.
