San Sebastian

I know there are two main time periods in San Seb when pintxos are served in abundance.
Do you know those times of day?

Thanks.

well, I know that there is a competition every year to see who makes the best pintxos. Sorry, I don't know the dates. Is this what you are referring to?

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. While there are always SOME tapas avaialable, there is a daytime serving for lunch and a nighttime serving for dinner when the pintxos bars cover the bars with food.
I want to plan on hitting both those times of day for the one day I'll be there in July.

The "lunch" pintxos are around by noon or so, the "evening" pintxos are around by eight or so. Don't worry, you won't have trouble finding incredible pintxos. They are everywhere in quantities that are difficult to imagine.
