Square Meal review of Barcelona Tapas Bar y Restaurante:

Swirling patterns in vibrant-coloured tiles, a soundtrack of Hispanic hits & thoroughly authentic Spanish food create a fiesta atmosphere at this ebullient City fringe tapas bar & dining room, & if the friendly service suffers the occasional wobble, all is forgiven when the all-Spanish wines begin to flow & the tapas start arriving: breadcrumbed chicken croquettes, fabada asturiana (a pork & white bean stew with chorizo, morcilla & tomato) & rinones al Jerez (lambs’ kidneys sauteed in onions & sherry). Veggies can tuck into the likes of patatas bravas or tacos de berenjenas (fried aubergine cubes coated in flour & egg); while for rarity value – in the UK at least – the xato de Sitges, a Catalonian salt-cod salad, is a must for fish fans.

Wine List: This fabulous all-Spanish list – one of the UK’s largest – concentrates on the established greats of Spain. Every wine has useful notes & is available in two separate glass sizes & over 100 are on offer, ranging from £2.95 to £48.25, which can make for some fabulous food & wine matching. And if you still haven’t been converted to the delights of Cava, there are 16 here to sample. Best Buy White 2005 Terra do Gargalo, Monterrei, Spain, £26.95. Best Buy Red 2000 Rioja Reserva, Contino, Spain, £47.95.
