"Deservedly renowned budget restaurant, popular with local students and lots of table room where you can fill up on substantial staples such as bocadillo de tortilla de patata (potato omelette in a baguette)."

Sisters and the City

"If you are looking for a traditional bocadillo from the city, Juantxo's Bocata de tortilla de patata is undoubtedly the one that takes the prize."

Marti Kilpatrick

"The bocadillo is an art form. Crusty bread encloses fillings of your choice: usually tortilla española or thinly sliced cured meats. It's also a patriotic symbol and staple of daily life. Juantxo is widely accepted as the Old Town favorite for bocadillo consumption."

Verna Banana

"The soft tortilla centre coupled with the crunchy texture of the baguette… it is a match made in heaven, and I will never go back to ever thinking that a tortilla was bland and tasteless as they usually are in London. The Basque people have changed my mind."

Hora a Hora

"Bocadillo de tortilla from the Juantxo bar is the sandwich par excellence, the best known and one of the most popular as well as the simplest. The special recipe and pre-cooked potatoes makes it a different and unique omelette."

Gonzalo Iza

"I'm sure that the children of the deepest part of Gipuzkoa agree with me that "trip to Donosti" and "sandwich at Juantxo" were almost synonymous. Compared to the prices we usually find in the city, this is one of the best quality/price sandwiches."

"Juantxo Taberna is the 80-year-old, specializes in tortilla, in the form of bocadillo (sandwich). Locals form a line for takeout, or simply to snack at almost every hour of the day. We ordered a couple of bocadillos de tortilla and two beers. The creamy, runny tortilla and the fresh beer hit the spot."
