    I love tapas because I'm awful at making up my mind what to choose in a restaurant. This is the…read moreperfect solution - lots of little dishes to share! I went in on a Saturday lunchtime and found the service very efficient without feeling rushed. It was surprisingly quiet, so we forgot about the world around and were able to concentrate on the delicious food. The dishes are in the range of about £3.50 - £5.50 each and they're usually split into 2-3 bits, so can be shared if necessary. I recommend getting bread as well - it's great for soaking up sauces and is nice, soft ciabatta style with tomato sauce to dip it in. Particularly recommended: - deep-fried chicken soaked in garlic - not at all greasy and very tasty - potato with layers of goats cheese, ham and tomato - prawns with scrambled egg and asparagus (much, much taster than it sounds!) The sangria comes with a good amount of fruit in it and at £3 a glass is cheap and plenty enough to last a meal (if you can resist another one, anyway!). All in all a really nice place if you're into tapas and a great introduction if you've never tried it.

    Fantastic! I love this place - a brilliant selection of hot and cold tapas with a range of drinks…read morein a very stylish room. My favourites are the selection of cheese, the garlic prawns and the little ham croquettes. Try a jug of sangria with it - it's very well done here and compliments the food greatly. This is a lovely place, decorated in a way inkeeping with the food and very private. The tables are well spaced, so you don't feel cramped or overheard. I like this place for dates or for a meal with a good mate. Always busy, so best to book it unless you've got time to have a drink at the bar first (which is no bad thing here). Go for a great, relaxed meal on one of Oxford's loveliest streets.

    I love an "I'm full but the food is so good so let me eat more" type of night!…read more Let me just start off by saying I never would've guessed I'd find great tapas in London! This place was super cute, spacious, and played some good music that paired well with the atmosphere and theme of the restaurant. The servers were very kind and knowledgeable of the menu as well. We started off with a meat platter, chargrilled bread with tomatoes along with two delicious cocktails. For our tapas we ordered the *Patatas Fritas *Crispy Pork Belly *Grilled Salmon Filet (the only dish I wasn't super crazy about) *Alitas De Pollo *Croquetas De Bacalao *Chuletas De Cordero Even after all this, there is always room for a little treat! There's no way we could leave here without ordering churros, and I'm so glad we did!! We also added a bonus sangria , because why not? This is one of my many places I will revisit when I return to London. Highly recommend. More details/descriptions in my pics :)

    Honestly, can't say how this little spot has remained off the radar for so long. I've eaten at a…read morenumber of Spanish tapas places around town, but this little local is fan-tastic ! The kitchen staff really know their stuff, producing classics with flair. Presentation is great - all their dishes look so appealing and sophisticated. The cocktail menu is excellent and worth popping in for alone, or paired with a snack at the bar. I'd recommend booking on weekends as it gets really busy and altho' the restaurant has just recently expanded in size, it is still buzzing with clientele. It's difficult to say what is best, but I love their rosemary manchego with quince jelly. The fish, meatballs, jambon, squid, aubergine, ah... so many fantastic dishes. Try everything ! you can't go wrong. .... visiting a month later, and I'd just add that the paella and squid-ink risotto were superb on Saturday night.

    Throwing Buns is a new café & sandwicherie based in the centre of Abingdon. With free wifi and a…read moreclassy, retro-themed interior, it's an intriguing and rather bold addition to Abingdon's cafe scene catering to a range of different markets: workers looking to buy lunches, tourists in search of a refreshing coffee and cake, or internet surfers looking for a quiet spot to while away a few hours. To this end, it's well-located in the shade of the 19th century Abingdon Museum (from whose bun throwing, as Abingdonians will know, the cafe gets its name), enjoying views of the town's marketplace. I stumbled across Throwing Buns on a hot afternoon looking for a drink, but after one look at the resistance-crumbling array of cakes, soon found myself contentedly gazing over the marketplace with a slice of lemon drizzle cake and some excellent Fentimanns ginger ale. The prices were reasonable and the service from the owners was friendly and attentive. Overall, this is a welcome addition to Abingdon's generally uninspiring cafés: if you like your atmosphere relaxed, your style retro, your cake yummy and your coffee fresh, this place comes highly recommended.

    Abingdon is filling up with coffee shops and you have a huge number to choose from (especially…read moreconsidering the size of the town). Throwing buns is now one of our favourites. Nice coffee and a very decent selection of sandwiches & wraps. They are now (it's winter) also selling a daily soup special and baked spuds (only a small oven, so you have to grab them early). The interior is lovely but it can get a wee-bit warm in there (low ceilings). Comfortable seating & a variety of table sizes for groups or couples. There is a loo hidden downstairs. The staff are very friendly and always welcoming. I would give them 5 stars if it wasn't for the fact that service at the till can sometimes be a little chaotic but that has a lot to do with the small working space they have and the number of bodies moving around. Not dog friendly but there are a handful of tables outside. Google "Throwing Buns" to find out why the shop is named so.
