We tried the omelet, blood sausage, and the ham and cheese board, and everything was delicious. The omelet and ham were worth repeating. The bathroom was a work of engineering worth seeing to remember your childhood, haha ​​;) 10 out of 10 (Cash only) 💵

A traditional bar, the best potato omelet. A must-try if you come to Castro Urdiales.

On our visit to Cantabria, we went to Castro Urdiales twice, and both times we stopped by Bar La Fuente. A simple bar with spectacular food. The tortilla pintxo is incredible, and the anchovies in vinegar are out of this world. We'll definitely be back! 😊

A typical bar. Located in a perfect location, near the port. The service was very friendly, attentive, and pleasant. We didn't expect the food to exceed expectations, reading the previous reviews. Without a doubt, the best was the tortilla pincho. We ordered a variety of croquettes: cheese, ham, cod, and boletus (all delicious), pickled anchovies, and tortilla pinchos. Everything was incredible. The bar offered a variety of pinchos, such as mushroom, with Serrano ham and goat cheese; black pudding with red pepper; and prawn with boiled egg and pink sauce (there were many more). All very good. Much more than we expected.

We had a wonderful meal! They have super delicious pinchos, and 3 or 4 of them were enough for us to eat. I highly recommend it, and it's also very cheap. €10-12 each was enough for the 4 pinchos and a tinto de verano. The waiters were also super friendly and helpful. The only drawback is that they don't accept card payments, but with a little cash in your wallet, it's easy!

Tortillota top...!!!!

The best tortilla I've ever had. It's always packed, but you'll eventually find a small spot to eat, either standing or sitting. The marinated anchovies are delicious too. If you go to Castro, don't miss it!

Amazing tortilla

The owner’s passion comes through. Few well selected pintxos of excellent quality. Highly recommended. Good local crowd. Friendly owners. Bring cash.

El Bar La Fuente lleva ofreciendo su especialidad de tortilla y anchoas tanto a castreños como a sus visitantes desde 1965. La tortilla es cremosa, poco cuajada y con un sabor especial, un obligatorio si visitas esta casa. Llegamos y le faltaba 5 minutos para salir, curiosamente la elaboran en una lonja cercana de 13:00 a 15:00 y de 19:30 a 22:30. Según aparece en el bar ves el éxito de ésta porque no paran de servir pinchos. Cortada en rectangulos y servida al momento. Las anchoas en vinagre o boquerones son otro de sus clasicos y obligatorios. Tersas, con su punto de acidez justo y perfectas. Es una gozada verlas en la enorme cazuela de barro que tienen en la barra, brillantes con su aceite de oliva, ajo y perejil picado. Aunque estos dos productos son su buque insignia en los ultimos años con la tercera generación se ha ampliado la carta de pinchos y raciones con las anchoas rebozadas, los matrimonios, las setas, las gildas, el pulpo, las pulgas variadas... El Bar la Fuente es para mi un obligatorio siempre que visito Castro Urdiales, desde niño visito este local y la verdad que la calidad y el buen trato nunca han cambiado, es uno de los clásicos de Castro que espero que dure muchos años más.

Mítico bar de Castro. La especialidad son las tortillas de patatas y los boquerones, ambas muy ricas. Suele estar lleno.

Very friendly staff, a bit warm in the place but worth it for the atmosphere! The tortilla was good and the rest of the tapas too! Perhaps our favorite was the anchovy tapa despite the tortilla's fame!

Super tortilla

The "tortilla" and the "anchoas" are to die for!

I knew it years ago, and when I visited this year, I saw that the price of the tortillas, especially, had dropped a bit. The tortillas are made to order, so you usually have to wait. Good service. It's a small place where it gets very hot, but they have tables and chairs outside where you can sit and have whatever you've ordered.

Rocio Correa

A tiny bar we went to based on reviews of their tortilla. The tortilla was average, but could be greatly improved, and the rest of the tapas could also be much better. The smell of fried food and rancid concentrate... Tiny bar with a prehistoric bathroom. Terrible service, and they don't accept card payments. I wouldn't recommend it.
