The owner is a sweet lady and she recommended the Pastel Vasco. The pastel vasco and the cheesecake were excellent! Service was friendly, fast, and welcoming. The location is perfect - right by the beach. read more

What a lovely shop with a friendly woman behind the counter. We stopped by twice to grab a quick afternoon espresso and pick up pastries to take back to our hotel. The woman who runs the bakery was friendly and kind and made wonderful recommendations for what to try. Can't wait to come back on our next visit. read more

It was our last (and only) morning in San Sebastian and we were anxious to have one more walk on La Concha Beach and then hop in the rental car and drive across Southern France, into the Pyrenees, and finally on to the Val D'Aran and Vielha. We weren't in the mood for a big breakfast, but a strong Cafe Solo and a pastry was our appealing choice. We consulted our Rick Steves' book, but unfortunately his "locals" choice was closed. Come to think of it, when we combined all the Monday closings and this AM disappointment (Bar Gorriti), old Rick really failed us in San Sebastian. Gayle and I previously walked past Oiartzun Gozotegia and ended up circling back to check it out. It's located just as you enter the old city and is across from the Park/City Hall Complex. When we entered, a group of Lady Friends were spending a chatty morning together. We joined them at the Coffee Bar and enjoyed both the pastries and caffeine and the neighbourly energy. San Sebastian seems to be full of great places to enjoy baked goods and this place literally took the cake for what we wanted and enjoyed. read more

We walked by this patisserie our first day in San Sebastian, had a cafe con leche and croissant, and were instantly hooked. The croissants are some of the best I've ever had - perfectly flaky, perfect circular layers in the cross-section, and the chocolate croissant is amazing. The extra touch of dipping the ends in high-quality chocolate create a perfect ratio of chocolate to croissant (for this chocoholic). If you are sitting outside, the chocolate will even become a bit melty as you nibble. Amazing. Their English isn't great, but you can get by with pointing at anything that looks good. Some pastries were too sweet and rich for me, but the croissants never failed. It was even worth grabbing one to eat on our hike up Mount Urgull, leaving a little trail of flaky crumbs. read more

Perfect place to stop for ice cream after dinner. This is one of those grab and go ice cream places where you are in and out in 3 minutes. They have all sorts of flavors but what stuck out at me was the cheese cake ice cream. It had these chunks of graham cracker mixed in and it wasn't overly sweet. One of the better ice creams I have had honestly. I feel like in America they make ice creams insanely sweet. In Spain it is a little different with a heavier focus on the flavor. Very good spot. I would highly recommend. Skip dessert at dinner and come by here or get both!!! read more

Nice cakes, too crowed and coffee good. Get in early if you expect to be seated. Tarta vasca and cream bomb super good. Chocolate croissant excellent. read more

Great place to stop for dessert after some pintxos! Their Gâteau Basque and coco pastries were tasty. Would have given another star but the service and customer service isn't the best. read more

This is for their Heladería stand only. I was craving ice cream, and despite it being a little on the chilly side, I was determined to find it. We stumbled across this after walking through the Old Town, and I was so pleased to find this! I opted for a scoop of the dulce de leche, while my husband had the arroz con leche. Service was super friendly and we were able to order in English. The stand is cash only, so be prepared with coins or bills. read more

Great little spot in town to sit down for a coffee (and pastry) break. I've had their Vasco tart and their croissants - both fresh and flaky. Not dry at all. They have a large selection of traditional pastries and they coffee was up to par. Great way to take a break from shopping. read more

Pastelería Oiartzun - Vasco and another traditional Spanish pastry. - Bakeries Near Me - Donostia / San Sebastián, SS

Came here twice in the space of four days and it was packed both times - one reason being that it's right next to the beach, and the other reason being that it's simply delicious. The first time I came, I ordered a pastel de vasco which was delicious. I didn't expect to like it since I hadn't really been digging any of the Spanish desserts I'd had thus far, but man was that good. Note that the price is slightly higher if you end up sitting at one of their few tables - it's almost like table tax or something. They ask if you want it to go for here, and if you want to sit there, they'd rather you order from the waitress. Strange system. They also have a separate heladeria, which is where I went during my second visits. Tons and tons of ice cream flavors! I already forgot which flavor I got, but it was gooood. Great, prompt service and lots of options. read more

Excellent, strong coffee and crisp, fresh pastries, at a very reasonable price. The women working here were accommodating and provided great service, and and location was practically just outside of our hostel - the Urban House. Located just around the corner from the waterfront, this was the ideal place for us to get our bearings and draw energy for the day, and a most delicious way to do it! read more

amazing bakery place! their croissants are the best! the fruit bread are pretty good too. food in San Sebastian are just in general amazing.

The place is constantly turning something delicious out of the oven. All the pastries are fresh, the location is perfect to sit back and relax with a cigarette... this is spain after all; someone will be smoking within a 4-meter radius. Back to the bakery... service is prompt and helpful. Better if you bring cash. read more
