Re: Pinchos before the game ?.
I had a double take at the title. Thought it was about Poncho's! Shouldn't it be Pintxos?

Best streets near stadium for Pintxos
Calle Licenciado Pozas / Calle Garcia Ribero and her favorites in the area are
Mugi Taberna..........Calle Licenciado Pozas
Goizeko Argia..........Gregorio de la Revilla
Acomerypunto...........Alameda Urquito
It would be a shame not to try them all

Would say like most places depends if the place has a dress code or nor ?. Pintxos bars are like street restaurants, posh ones are more sniffy than more basic ones !.paddyor wrote:Will there be any trouble getting in places after the match wearing leinster jersey? Anyone any idea?

in licenciado pozas is the "huevo berria" and next to the stadium the "antxi" and "la catedral" in alameda urquijo for pintxos and in "la bodega" they have beer bottles "mahou " at 1'5 euros (I hope they do not raise the price), It is also good "las cañitas de briñas".footrush wrote:Any one know any other good local bars in the area ?.
