Discover one of the best pintxos in Getxo, the crunchy Idiazabal croquette from the bar Itxas Bide Taberna.<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The bar Itxas Bide Taberna and its famous homemade croquette of crunchy Idiazabal attract thousands of people to the old port of Algorta throughout the year. Between picturesque fishermen’s houses and the waters of the Abra bay, is one of the most visited bars by the Biscayan people in the summer season, and at this time of the year, the stairs and the wall of the promenade of the Old Port of Algorta become comfortable seats where to enjoy the summer temperature, friends and our beloved Idiazabal crunchy croquette. <\/p>\n

The Itxas Bide bar is accompanied by the Itxas Bide restaurant, the bar on the lower floor and the restaurant on the upper floor, two establishments with the same name but different attractions and management. The first, the bar, specializes in tasty pintxos and the second, the restaurant, in fresh fish. <\/p>\n

Dough<\/strong>: Soft and light, the dough of the crunchy Idiazabal croquette is another of the secrets of this establishment from Getxo. If the dough had a slightly more intense Idiazabal flavor, perhaps they would have to close the bar because they were out of stock, I would buy them all. <\/p>\n

Although we only wanted to talk about our beloved Idiazabal crunchy croquette, the fishing tradition of the old port of Algorta and the emblematic area of the coast of Bizkaia where this establishment is located must be mentioned:<\/p>\n

Location on the Biscayan coast<\/strong>: Located in front of the Cantabrian Sea, in the bay of Abra, in the lower part of the old port of Algorta, the Itxas Bide bar has a location that amazes everyone who visits it. A walk along the high part of the cliffs as the park of Usategi or a walk at sea level as the beach of Ereaga help us to discover the environment that surrounds these narrow streets that once were occupied by brave Basque fishermen. <\/p>\n
