Restaurants nearby

  • Nublo★ Michelin Occupying a 16th-century aristocratic property, Nublo is much more than just a restaurant. In fact, it has brought the gastronomic spotlight back to a town famous as the location for the largest concentration of century-old wine cellars in the world!Following an extensive interior design makeover, the restaurant has opted not to hide the scars of age, instead retaining spaces and dining rooms with lots of personality, such as the internal patio where you can see the goddess Nublo (at night, her transparent image is transposed onto a large ‘holy veil’). Here, chef Miguel Caño, who once worked a6.2km
  • Casa ToniBib A modern and contemporary restaurant that comes as quite a surprise in this village anchored at the foot of a walled castle-fortress with streets steeped in history and buildings fronted by beautiful stone façades. In this eclectic and unexpected setting, the modern interior, dominated by the contrasts between red and white, features numerous references to wine production, providing the backdrop for cuisine with a strong Rioja flavour that combines typical recipes such as “Patorrillo a la Riojana” (lamb’s tripe and trotters) with other more contemporary-style dishes. An interesting gastronomic3.0km
  • Allegar Briones is one of Spain’s most beautiful medieval villages and is also home to the superb Vivanco bodega- museum. Named after a local Rioja word that means “to scrape the plate clean”, “allegar” is the perfect way to define the approach to food at this restaurant inside the Santa María Briones hotel, where the culinary focus is on an updated take on Rioja cooking, featuring intense flavours and even the occasional hint of trompe-l’oeil. The restaurant is also home to an old and typical wine cellar, known locally as a “calado”.11m
  • Los Caños If you find yourself on a tapas and “pinchos” crawl in the La Herradura section of historic Haro, we can highly recommend a refuelling stop at Los Caños, occupying a delightful 16C palatial-style property. In this attractive restaurant, which has tastefully combined historic details with a more contemporary aesthetic, the emphasis is on deep-rooted traditional cuisine that has been able to take classic tapas to a higher gastronomic level, as showcased in options such as the pork sandwich with Morbier cheese, Iberian dewlap and cured egg yolk.6.2km
  • Tierra y Vino Tierra y Vino is part of the 18C Palacio de Samaniego, now converted into a luxury boutique hotel. Here, Portuguese-born chef Bruno Coelho offers his guests an à la carte that is constantly evolving and centred around locally sourced seasonal ingredients and dishes with added Galician and French culinary touches, alongside an interesting tasting menu (Edmond) that can be accompanied by two different wine pairings. The restaurant also houses a collection of works of art belonging to Baroness Ariane de Rothschild.9.1km
  • La Vieja Bodega A restaurant with a touch of charm? This one has it in spades; in fact... it has restored a beautiful 17th century wine cellar! Here they see gastronomy as a pleasure to be shared and that is their priority, always highlighting the goodness of Rioja cuisine. In their well-kept dining rooms, all with a rustic feel, they offer a traditional menu, with modern touches and interesting suggestions of the day. We particularly liked the slow-cooked egg and their deliciously tender oxtail, stewed and shredded!10.0km
  • Lumbre Lumbre boasts an impressive setting in a delightful 17C bodega with pleasant dining rooms suitable for individual guests and groups, an attractive underground cellar, an attic-style lounge for post-dinner drinks, plus dining options that are exclusively centred around three meticulously crafted menus: Origen (midweek only), Fuego, and Lumbre. The experience here usually starts off with a selection of appetisers (called La Huerta) in its stunning “calados” (underground tunnels in which wines were laid to down to age in days gone by).10.2km
  • Marqués de Riscal Located within the eponymous hotel-winery (recognised as the best vineyard in Europe in 2021) designed by the famous architect Frank O. Gehry and overflowing with imagination and creativity. Beneath the spectacular curved roof of pink, gold and silver titanium that represent the red of the wine, the golden hue of the wire mesh decorating Marqués de Riscal’s bottles, and the gold colour of their capsules, discover innovative cuisine overseen by award-winning chef Francis Paniego, with a constant nod to tradition, memories and the superb seasonal ingredients of the Rioja and Álava provinces. Eve14.3km
  • El Puntido If you are interested in the world of wine and all the culture behind it, you should visit the Viñedos de Páganos winery, as this restaurant is located within its well-kept facilities. The restaurant, which has the exact same name as one of its most emblematic wines, is a superb spot to disconnect, with large windows that allow you to enjoy the views of the immense surrounding vineyards and the mountains. Here, chef Cristian Solana offers two tasting menus: Calados del Puntido, with a traditional touch, and El Puntido, which is more extensive, gastronomic and daring (there are dishes that can 14.8km
  • Héctor Oribe This restaurant run by a pleasant married couple is one of those places that you love recommending to others. Here, the traditional cuisine with a contemporary touch is built around seasonal ingredients and showcased on a single tasting menu (a shorter version of the same menu is also available). Interesting dishes that we particularly enjoyed included the “canutillos” of black pudding and pine nuts with a red alubia and piparra pepper cream, the cod taco with chickpea hummus, piquillo peppers and a spinach pil-pil, and the fresh Idiazábal cheesecake with quince and walnuts.14.9km
