Brindisa Tapas Soho sits on Broadwick Street in the heart of Soho, where it channels the feel of a Spanish bodega with an open kitchen, a bar for drinks and snacks, and an intimate dining room of wood tables, stools and benches. Expect a lively atmosphere where chefs grill, sauté and plate at the pass and guests sip Spanish wines, vermouth and cocktails. The space also has outdoor tables on the street in warmer months.
The menu is seasonal and rooted in Spanish tapas tradition, with small plates drawn from the best produce sourced across the country. Bar-picoteo options include pan con tomate with Catalan coca bread, pimientos de padrón with rock salt, croquetas de jamón, marinated Manchego, and matrimonio anchovies with whipped butter. Preserved sections feature hand-carved jamón ibérico de bellota, and a tabla mixta board of Spanish charcuterie and cheese.
Brindisa Tapas Soho offers tapas classics that include huevos rotos with potatoes and broken eggs (with optional sobrasada or jamón), patatas bravas with spicy tomato-alioli, tortilla Española, chorizo Alejandro on toast with piquillo peppers, gambas al ajillo and pulpo con mojo rojo (Galician octopus with mojo sauce). Seasonal dishes might feature lentils with chorizo, mar y montaña (Spain’s answer to surf and turf), suquet con fideu (a seafood stew including skrei cod, mussels, squid and prawn broth), carrilleras ibéricas (pork cheeks) or arroz negro (squid ink rice with lemon and alioli). Sides include house pan de la casa, chargrilled vegetables and salads.
The wine list focuses on Spanish producers, complemented by sherries, vermouth and seasonal cocktails. Brindisa Soho’s approach is casual but anchored in classic Spanish flavours and techniques, making it suitable for anything from a drink and snacks at the bar to a full dinner of shared plates with friends or colleagues.
