Bar Espagnol Mercado, *Average price based on a 2 course meal from the a la carte menu for 2 people
went here for my birthday lunch …… fantastic food and the service was very warm and friendly …. i highly recomend this to anyone (think i have told everyone about this place)
i will be back real soon
went yesterday to celebrate a birthday and had the pre theatre and won’t be coming back.
The portions were tiny and not large enough even to allow for your partner to have a taste without feeling that they were taking half the portion! The cooking was below average. Had overcooked squid and the garlic bread was doughy andcertainly not worth the extortionate prices(beware the set price menu includes 1/3 of dishes wanting £1 and £2 supplements
There are much better places in town and this was a case of style over substance. I left feeling disappointed and ripped off.They seem to rely on passing trade and not really bothered if you come back or not
Been twice-excellent portion sizes and excellent service.
Best deal is 6 x tapas and a bottle of wine per couple- £25
Would recommend :))
went here for my partners birthday dinner. booked through 5pm.com for deal including: olives, bread, 6 tapas and btl of wine fir £29.50. service friendly and welcoming, food was amazing, highly recommend and definitely be back!
Was looking forward to tapas however was very disappointed by food. Paella was very overcooked and exceptionally salty. Will not be rushing back.
Fair to say The Service was friendly and helpful.
