The best grocery stores Basque Country

In this delicatessen, located just a stone's throw from Plaza Constitución, you will find a fine selection of regional products sold as preserves (asparagus from Navarre, guindillas, etc.), the famous Idiazábal cheese, a selection of txakolis (including the excellent Txomin Etxaniz, from Getaria), as well as Basque cider and Rioja wines. But above all, a wide variety of Iberian hams finely cut with a knife, including the excellent Bellota. Perfect for stocking up on groceries or bringing back gourmet souvenirs!

This establishment has its origins in the market of La Bretxa, where for a long time Aitor Lasa's parents devoted themselves to selling the farm's products. With the taste of the land as his heritage, the son has therefore maintained the family tradition by creating this delicatessen renowned for its artisan cheeses, especially those made from Latxa sheep's milk. Among its careful selection, you will also find seasonal mushrooms, apple jelly, Iberian sausages, dried fruit and wines.

Adjacent to the emblematic tapas bar La Viña del Ensanche, this delicatessen offers its customers the products used in the restaurant's kitchens. The shelves are stocked with top-quality jams, preserves and olive oils. The house is also famous for its excellent Iberian hams from Bellota (free-range acorn-fed pigs) and its selection of wines. There is also a delicatessen corner (ham croquetas, cod, etc.).

A good place to make provisions of meats and regional cheeses (prepared in the caserios of the region), but as well it of txakoli.

Bacalao (cod), the star of the local cuisine, is in the spotlight in this old grocery store founded in 1931. The "Bacalada de Gregorio Martín", as it is known, is also worth a look for its authentic décor, full of preserves, rows of sausages and bags of pulses. The company's flagship product, cod, is imported from the Faroe Islands, where it is sustainably fished. The choice of producers is the key to the success of this brand: cheeses, cold cuts, wines, chocolates, etc., are selected from the best producers.
