Salt Yard by the Salt Yard Group boasts two restaurants in London, one in Fitzrovia and the other in London's buzzy Borough Market, where diners can enjoy Spanish and Italian tapas just off Winchester Street. Discover seasonal Mediterranean menus focused around authentic sharing plates, as well as a regional wine list and plenty of refreshing cocktails.
The striking venue is designed to transport guests to the intimate tapas bars of Spain and Italy, with its interiors featuring exposed brickwork, rich brass, green velvet banquettes and high tables to create a buzzy and sociable ambience. The restaurant is split over two floors, with the ground level featuring floor-to-ceiling windows for a light and airy feel, while the downstairs bar and basement offers a moodier tone perfect for sipping one of its signature cocktails.
The menu spans a selection of sharing plates focused around meat, fish and vegetables. Start with something snacky, such as an artisan cheese or charcuterie selection, grilled flatbreads with herb butter or marcona almonds.
Further down the list are a selection of larger dishes, designed to be enjoyed by everyone at the table. Look out for the likes of Josper grilled chicken with a herb and garlic emulsion, prawns 'pil pil' with hot guindilla salsa verde, and cacio e pepe chargrilled cabbage with burnt lemon zest. Guests can also choose from a range of traditional tapas-style dishes including patatas bravas with aioli and spicy tomato, anchoves in olive oil, and jamon Iberico and Manchego croquettes. To finish, look out for a rich Basque cheesecake with smoked cherry puree.
Drinks wise, guests can choose from a menu of cocktails including classics and Salt Yard signatures. Check out the Salt Yard Passion, Padron Margarita and The Noisette, as well as an impressive wine list from regions across Italy and Spain.
