Reviews
The staff is great friendly and passionate. The drinks fun, boozy and easy to drink. The food easy to eat share and hard to be disappointed. Bring a date here, your parents whoever, it’s just a great vibe. We had so much fun.
There are a few outdoor seats plus a lean-to style covered section that feels like a leftover from the Covid days. Sitting outside can get windy, even in summer, so worth keeping in mind when picking a table. Inside the vibe is buzzy, though the decor feels a bit eclectic without quite nailing the boho look it seems to be going for. Service is where they shine: the hostess at the door was fantastic, really welcoming and clearly the face of the venue, and the staff throughout were polite and efficient.
The food and drink themselves are fairly average, mid-level tourist fare, but the energy of the place and the service lift it.
The patatas bravas came out in a slightly unusual style, more like wafer-thin duck-fat potatoes that had been twice-cooked and cut into neat shapes. I’ve seen that approach before, but never in a bravas. It worked fine, though I imagine a few Spanish purists might be shaking their heads!
Best reason to go? On Friday and Saturday nights they host a funk band at the front, which is brilliant fun and makes the whole visit feel like much better value.
Drinks are not that great. Sorta too sweet and a mocktail I got barely had any liquid in it.
Food is pretty good. Seasoned nicely and the seafood tasted fresh. Apps are the best part of the menu for sure.
Service was a bit slow and it took me half a meal to get one of my drinks.
Outside patio was super loud and echo-y
*we had the following with a rating from me out of 10:
flatbread with prosciutto 8
Crispy Paella Balls 7
Patatas Bravas (potato squares)6 (these are their signature dish and I thought they were just okay)
Braised Short Ribs 10
Albondigas (beef & pork meatball) 8
So yummy!
The baycation cocktail was delicious. The meatballs were amazing and the small was a perfect portion. The fries were also great.
For drinks, we got the spiked hot chocolate (this didn’t even taste alcoholic and they used housemade whipped cream on top) and a festive holiday spritz which also tasted pretty good.
Then for appetizers, we got the crusted paella balls, which I’ve never had as a ball form, but it was so easy to eat and came with a delicious sauce. For the mains, we ordered the short ribs and lamb pasta. The short ribs are an absolute MUST ORDER. So tender and came with crispy potatoes (no need to order the patatas braves if you get this) and some broccolini. The lamb pasta was okay; nothing too stand-out, but the pasta noodles did pair very well with the short ribs.
Overall, on a weekday, service was so fast and the vibe was super chill. Very date night worthy! Highly recommend.
