Barrafina Adelaide Street

Part of the acclaimed Harts Group and known for their award-winning Spanish cuisine, Barrafina can be dotted about the city, but it's their Adelaide Street spot that makes finding the best tapas near Soho a flawless experience. Founders Sam and Eddie Hart, raised in Mallorca, celebrate modern tapas, and their menu keeps decisions easy to make, seperated by meat, vegetables and seafood. We recommend the cured monkfish, the grilled squid and of course, the tortilla.

Ember Yard

Rocking a contemporary dining aesthetic, Ember Yard on Berwick Street is a stunning Italian and Spanish hybrid spot for tapas in Soho. The Berwick Street haunt rustles up mouthwatering small plates, cooked over a centerpiece charcoal pit, resulting in all kinds of delicious bites, think pan fried prawns with black garlic and grilled choreizo picante.

Aqua Nueva

For those of you who fancy taking tapas up a notch, Aqua Nueva just shy of Regent Street is a glam rooftop tapas restaurant in London that boasts an awe-inspiring terrace for dining under both the stars and sunshine combined. While you admire the views, feast upon a menu of unique sharing plates (some served with a little theatre), including their delicious suckling pig tacos with black truffle, home-salted cod brandande and squid ink bread.

Lobos Soho

Enjoy an authentic taste of Spain at Lobo Soho. Dig into all kinds of tasty, as you fill your plates with classic dishes as pan con tomate, fluffy tortilla and charred padron peppers that take centre stage. If you're not interested in a spot of sangria? That's cool too, as Lobos Soho are more than up to par when it comes to cocktails on the side. We suggest their 'Wolf Mistress' with passion fruit, coco cream and lime juice.
