About this business

Counterculture – Pintxo Cornwall is a vibrant little gem in Newquay, bringing a slice of Spanish flair to the Cornish coast. With its lively tapas bar atmosphere, this spot is all about sharing good food, good wine, and even better company. The menu is packed with tempting small plates inspired by the bustling pintxo bars of northern Spain, featuring everything from classic patatas bravas to more adventurous bites. The drinks list is equally tempting, with sherries, Spanish wines, and inventive cocktails that keep the conversation flowing.

Step inside and you’ll find a warm, buzzing space where the chatter of happy diners mingles with the clink of glasses. The décor is rustic yet stylish, with colourful tiles and quirky touches that make you feel like you’ve stumbled into a hidden spot in San Sebastián. Whether you’re perched at the bar or sharing a table with friends, there’s a real sense of fun and discovery here. Pintxo Cornwall isn’t just a place to eat – it’s a place to linger, laugh, and soak up the relaxed Mediterranean vibe right by the sea.
