Local tip
The riverside location makes the gastrobar a practical stop before exploring the Old Town or continuing from North Station.

4th Gastrobar by abba San Sebastián is a contemporary restaurant and bar set within the abba San Sebastián Hotel on Paseo de Francia, beside the Urumea River and close to the city’s North Station. Its location places it within easy reach of the Old Town and La Concha, making it suitable for a meal between sightseeing, a casual evening nearby, or a drink before or after a train journey.

The kitchen brings together Basque culinary tradition and contemporary Mediterranean influences. Fresh regional ingredients and seasonal produce shape the offering, with a weekly menu alongside a broader selection of creative pintxos and main courses. The style balances local character with modern presentation, giving the venue a flexible format for a light bite, a more complete meal or an informal dinner.

The main gastrobar occupies the hotel’s ground floor in an air-conditioned, elegant setting. The atmosphere is welcoming and polished rather than formal, with the bar element adding an easygoing feel. Cocktails form part of the drinks offering, alongside the food menu, so the space also works for sharing drinks and small plates.

A separate rooftop space, known as abba The Roof Terrace, extends the venue’s offer outdoors. It includes a solarium and an area for drinks with elevated city outlooks. The roof terrace has its own food and drinks selection, making it an option for guests looking for an open-air setting as well as for those who prefer the main restaurant.

4th Gastrobar suits diners seeking regional flavours in a modern hotel setting, as well as visitors looking for creative pintxos close to the river and railway station. The combination of seasonal cooking, a relaxed bar format and distinct indoor and rooftop spaces allows the venue to work across different parts of the day. Reservations and enquiries can be made by telephone, email or text message through WhatsApp.
