If you’ve got a bunch of guests that love a bit of Spanish tapas (and who doesn’t?) then a private dinner at Brindisa Tapas could be right up your street. By nature, tapas is a great vessel for sharing-style dinners and this South Kensington restaurant also offers set menus and a semi-private dining area, to make it all the more perfect!
If you head towards the back of the main dining room and down the steps, you’ll find an open kitchen with a semi-private dining space. The secluded spot is a great area for celebrating a special occasion, while still feeling the buzz of the main restaurant and enjoying the action of the chefs at work. With a capacity of up to 20 guests, this cosy little nook is perfect for intimate birthdays, family gatherings and work dinners.
Brindisa is all about sharing snacks and family-style meals, with group dining made even easier by a choice of two set menus. The ‘Brindis’ set menu is best for casual occasions and lunchtime reservations, offering a lighter fare of bar snacks, tapas dishes and mixed grill, while the ‘Banquete’ menu is designed for all-out celebrations. The latter features a showstopping centrepiece - a whole suckling pig or a Galician octopus - served alongside sliced potatoes and bookended by tuna empanadas and a choice of Basque cheesecake or seasonal cheeses for dessert.
If you’re hosting a networking event or cocktail party, Brindisa also offers a range of canapes, like jamon croquetas, salt cod fritters and sobrasada pincho. This is a great way to try a wide range of Brindisa’s flavours and enjoy Spanish tapas in its most authentic form. By booking in advance for a private dinner, you can also ensure vegetarian and vegan guests are well-catered for.
