Square Meal Review of Pinchito ?

Pinchito encapsulates the cool, funky side of Spain that has so engaged tapas-loving Londoners of late. The scuffed-up space is dotted with cracked leather sofas, & there’s an intriguingly offbeat collage of Iberian-related prints on one of the bare-brick walls. The menu is short & sweet, with the usual line-up of patatas bravas, chorizo & gambas al ajillo alongside pork belly with mango & black olive, huevos rotos or baby eels with garlic; otherwise check out the blackboard ‘tapas del dia’ or the cracking set menus (£15/20). Thirsty types have a host of cocktails to choose from, including some tempting Spanish-tinged mixes such as the Sevillan fizz (Aperol, cava & amontillado), while the wine list features some seriously old sherries & bottles from Spain’s lesser-known regions, such as Jumilla & Bierzo.

    A series of 20 minute wait for everything all night – menus, first round, waiters attention, ordering, next round, then food. Manager is incredible dismissive. Wouldn't bring chairs then walked past with stacks. Come here if you like arrogant staff that will ignore you. Completely unapologetically rude.

    We went to Pinchito expecting the usual morbid standard of tapas in London to which there are only one or two exceptions. Now there is clearly another exception to the rule. The food was excellent and the specials menu was different and interesting and also proved to be of high quality, the ox tongue and mango being a highlight.

    Service was friendly and efficient. The wine list looked impressive and to test it we tried the cheapest wine on the list – if that is good then the rest should be! It was more than acceptable. The bartender responded to our request for information about the wide range of spanish licqeurs on the list by allowing us to sample some of them before buying!

    We had a great evening at a very reasonable cost. We will undoubtedly return.

    I visited Pinchito Tapas for my birthday lunch and had the best time ever! The service was slick, with owners Tobias and Valeria most attentive. The whole group agreed that the tapas was outstanding value with favourite dishes being Hanger Steak, Pork Belly with black olives and peach and Octopus with broken potatoes. All washed down with the most amazing jug of Rose Sangria – a creation of Tobias consisting of gin and lychee juice.

    A hidden gem!!!
