For a wider meal, combine a small plate with one of the grilled fish or meat dishes, then consult the wine list for a pairing.

Aldapeta Gastrobar is a San Sebastian restaurant built around cuisine with Basque roots, presented in a broad gastrobar format. The menu brings together familiar local ingredients, grill cooking and contemporary combinations, creating a choice of plates for a full meal as well as smaller orders.

The selection begins with products such as Iberian ham, cured meat and cheese, alongside salads, seasonal vegetables and soup. Basque references appear in ingredients including Idiazabal cheese, piparras, Cantabrian anchovies, txangurro and txuleta. Several dishes add influences from beyond the region, including Asian-inspired flavours, Mediterranean touches and international comfort food.

For a more informal meal, Aldapeta Gastrobar serves pizza, pasta, sandwiches, burgers and chicken dishes. This makes the menu suitable for mixed tastes, whether a table is looking for a familiar option or a dish with a stronger regional identity. The menu also includes a dedicated selection of small plates, with creative pintxos, croquettes, mussels, scallops and potatoes prepared for sharing.

Grilled cooking is another central part of the offering. Meat, fish and seafood feature alongside accompaniments such as potatoes, sweet potato and sauces with Basque or contemporary influences. The choice includes both individual mains and larger grilled preparations intended for more than one diner, giving the restaurant scope for different styles of meal.

A wine list accompanies the food, while the menu is presented in Spanish and Basque. The setting on San Bartolome Gaina places the restaurant in the San Bartolome area of the city. Aldapeta Gastrobar suits diners seeking a flexible menu that moves from Basque produce and traditional references to pizza, burgers and globally influenced plates, as well as tables that prefer to combine several smaller dishes.
