"Amazing beers and a good selection of tapas. Didn't eat here as it was a Friday night and very busy as the local Spaniards get out and really bring the place alive. Only lost a point as it was queuing at the bar and a guy was other phone for a good 10 minutes before serving."

"I’ve been a few times before, but this time I chose something Spanish that I had learned about a few weeks ago. The basic dish is called Cogollos. The hearts of small lettuces drizzled in garlic olive oil and garnished with salted tomatoes. The one served here also has king prawns and noodles. Listed in the menu as a starter, but easily filled me. It didn’t disappoint and I enjoyed every mouthful. My only gripe is due to the smoker on the next table who decided to smoke after update I had ordered. Update 30/11/25 This time I tried the Aguecate con langustinos en salsa Rosa. Another successful choice. Update 24/1225. Full English breakfast. Very good. Update 11/02/26 same yesterday. Sit here for 20 minutes and no service. About to go elsewhere."
