Uribarri, Bilbao

The hillside northern quarter above the city, residential and quiet, with neighbourhood bakeries and tabernas that locals walk down for a Sunday lunch.

Uribarri sits on the hillside north of the city, quiet and residential, with bakeries and tabernas that draw locals down for a long Sunday lunch. Nothing here is aimed at visitors, which is exactly why it is worth the climb. This is Bilbao eating at neighbourhood speed.

The full Uribarri food guide is still being researched. In the meantime, see the Bilbao food guide for the places we cover, or the neighbourhood index.
