About Pintxo de Bath
Rare in Bath to find a tapas bar that holds nothing back on portion sizes — Pintxo de Bath, a compact contemporary spot near the Crescent, runs entirely on walk-ins and is worth the wait. The pork belly and patatas bravas are the plates most people come back for, the chorizo croquettes and txistorra not far behind, and the confit duck with beetroot slaw is the kind of thing that gets mentioned in the same breath as best meal ever. Dessert is not optional: the Tarta de Santiago and Basque cheesecake close things out properly. The sherry range is imported and serious. Teresa and the team read the room well, and the music is right.
Pintxo de Bath earns its romantic reputation through both atmosphere and a serious wine selection — the kind of place where a dinner for two tends to extend well past dessert.
In the last 90 days, Pintxo de Bath has drawn 37 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
