Basque cuisine
You simply can’t leave Gernika without trying...

Pinto beans
It’s hard to beat a steaming dish of pinto beans from Gernika, especially when the weather turns cold...

Biscayan style cod
A good dish of Biscayan style cod, in a pil pil sauce or perhaps “bacalao al ajo arriero”, cod cooked with peppers, tomato, garlic and a touch of chili. Did you know that for years now, the winner of the “King of Cod” competition hails from Gernika?
Enjoy these succulent dishes in one of Gernika’s traditional restaurants.
Fancy a few pintxos?

Gernika peppers
Keep it simple: Gernika peppers fried with a pinch of salt.

Idiazabal cheese
How about a good pintxo of Idiazabal cheese before sitting down to eat, or afterwards as a dessert? It’s delicious either way!
