San Sebastián , Spain
Traditional pintxos bars do not take reservations. You stand, order, eat, and move on.
Sit-down restaurants and more modern pintxos spots often do require booking, especially in peak season or for dinner.
If a place is reservation-only and fully booked, don’t force it — San Sebastián rewards flexibility.
