The best restaurants Burgos

Restaurant very frequented by the residents of Burgos. Typical Castilian meals in a rustic setting.

Typical, noisy and always crowded, this tavern is the perfect place to try Burgos' specialities in the form of tapas and raciones. A must: the morcilla and the capricho of Burgos! You can also enjoy croquettes, mushrooms a la plancha, fried squid or scrambled eggs. The portions are generous and the price is unbeatable. Behind the bar and in the dining room, the waiters work quickly to satisfy the local clientele. A classic in Burgos!

A cosy tavern on Calle de Avellanos, a lively street in the historic centre of Burgos. In a rustic decor of stone and brick walls and hanging hams, you are served - with a smile to some extent - excellent pinchos such as bolets a la plancha, white asparagus or pumpkin cream and small ham sandwiches. In the restaurant, the house is also famous for its "a la brasa" grilled meats and its wide range of Iberian sausages and cheeses. Not to mention its fine wine list!

Near the Plaza Mayor, a nice bar to eat tapas, kebabs, cazuelitas accompanied by red Rioja wines. Here you can try the most representative tapas of Burgos gastronomy, such as cojonudo, a slice of bread with fried quail egg, chilli pepper and fried chorizo. There are also charcuterie and cheese boards as well as hamburgers and sandwiches. You can sit in the large bar on the ground floor or in one of the dining rooms upstairs. Very noisy, very typical and the food is good.

Very beautiful, luxurious and spacious room, with the vaults and ivory tones. Except typical recipes from Burgos, a lot of modern cooking dishes and delicious desserts. For the price, it really is worth it.

In an alley before the cathedral arc, a nice restaurant, decorated with dried flowers and fuss, with an intimate terrace corner in summer. A map, fish and cheese. In the bar, small plates of cuit cooked, chipirones, clams.

Located in the lively street of San Lorenzo, this establishment is one of the city's references for its traditional cuisine with an avant-garde touch. It serves original and tasty tapas: egg with truffle and mushrooms, tuna tataki with soy sauce, pan-fried foie gras with mango jam, blood sausage with piquillo sauce... Don't go without, the establishment has actually won awards for its tapas in 2018 and 2019. Nice references in terms of wines. An interesting stop on the Burgos tapas route!

We recommend a stop at this tavern on Calle San Lorenzo, which is popular with the locals, to try two of Burgos' great tapeo classics: the "cojonudo", which consists of a quail egg, red pepper and chorizo on a slice of bread, and the "cojonuda", where the chorizo is replaced by a slice of blood sausage. Simple, good and effective! And if you are still hungry, let yourself be tempted by a pincho de croqueta, peppers filled with seafood or a delicious slice of home-made tortilla. The choice will not be easy!
