Tapas Restaurants

Recommended Posts

I wonder if anyone can recommend a good, reasonably priced Tapas Restaurant in and around East Dulwich or within easy public transport travel. I have noticed the one up Lordship Lane called Barcelona which seems very traditional, and there appear to be a few others, Herne Hill area but they all seem to be rather 'modern'. Traditional would be preferable.

They've opened in Brixton now - on Railton Road (opposite Electric Avenue) - not strictly a restaurant, more a deli where you can eat....

Same here. Never been back either.

IMHO Barcelona is ok but nothing special and Angel & Gypsies, whilst nice, was, I thought, very expensive - particularly the scallops (or was that scallop singular!). Brindisa is by far the best within reasonable striking distance though I am not sure you can book.

Yes, another nay-sayer for Barcelona, I'm afraid. Food is overpriced and overly-greasy, and the service appalling. We dropped by with our Tastecard one midweek evening, and asked if we could still use it despite not having booked (the place was practically empty). Our first waiter checked and agreed that this was fine, but once the bill came after a fairly disappointing meal, we noticed that the discount hadn't been applied. When we queried it, we were met with a degree of rudeness that included loud and embarrassing shouting, flinging our change across the table and onto the floor, and calling us names in Spanish! Absolutely gobsmacked! Certainly will not be going back.


Brindisa's fab, though - and the staff are super!

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
