Krookies

Krookies is a bakery in Bilbao, located at 45 Iparraguirre Kalea in Abando, that has garnered attention for its innovative pastries, especially its “krookies”—a fusion of a croissant and a cookie inspired by Parisian pastry shops. The shop stands out for offering large, New York-style cookies, baked daily and filled with generous amounts of filling.

Among its specialties are the New York cookies in flavors such as pistachio, Oreo, Kinder Bueno, Nutella, and chocolate-vanilla, as well as the “Zurivelvet,” a cookie version of red velvet cake. They also offer a variety of beverages such as coffee, matcha, lattes, ice cream-based milkshakes, and frappés—perfect for pairing with their treats.

The atmosphere at Krookies is cozy, and its products are very popular among both Bilbao locals and tourists, who are often surprised by the quality and the aroma that fills the shop. The cookies can be enjoyed right away or taken home with instructions for reheating. Krookies also offers home delivery options through platforms like Uber Eats and Glovo.

Founder Nayelis’ passion for baking dates back more than fifteen years to her native Venezuela—a love she inherited from her mother and has brought to life in this successful concept in Bilbao.

Try the pistachio cookies—they're one of the best-selling and most highly recommended items.

Consider ordering them to go, since they provide instructions on how to reheat the cookies at home and enjoy them as if they were freshly baked.
