Bar Iberico in Nottingham

Great food and excellent service. Nice evening so we sat outside with everyone passing by which gave it atmosphere.

Love this place, food is amazing, will happily eat there every day.

Fantastic first visit! We will definitely be going back.

Good tapas, nice wine selection £18 deal before 6:30pm is good value

Always great food, and super friendly service.

Great staff, lovely atmosphere (maybe turn down the music a tad guys!) simple tapas style menu. I thought that the food could have been a bit more imaginative and better in authenticity, but it was well prepared. Staff were positive, relaxed and friendly. Overall a good lunch stop in Nottingham

One of our fave vegan places in Nottingham. We love all of the vegan options. We always like to share so we get to try as many vegan dishes as we can because we love them all! We particularly love the smoked almonds, padrón peppers, patatas bravas and flatbreads. Staff are friendly. It’s close to the ice rink for after we’ve been skating.

Amazing food & service - my fave place in Notts for a reason :)

Lovely food & fantastic service. This was my first introduction to tapas, I’m glad I had it here :)

When Bar Iberico has a new menu. Don't need to tell the good people of Nottingham how good the tapas is here do we? There's lots a new dishes to choose from. We always gotta have the favourite Crispy Chicken. Find this helpful give a like👍 follow.

Best tapas in UK. Great food and great service. Highly recommend

If you have allergies speak up to your server. Food is good. It's walk in only.

Lovely food. We often come here during a lunch break. Food arrives quickly, is super tasty and they have great portion sizes. Overall, the food is so good we always dig in and forget to take photos! Food coma ensues for the rest of the day, so if coming on your lunch be mindful to clear out your work calendars. Oh and 5* service rating for the beautiful male chef with tatts and muscles 🤣.

One of my favourite Nottingham eateries

Busy night to go so we waited about 20 mins for a table. We had drinks whist we waited. Lots of tapas choice, the Cauliflower was a favourite and the croquettes. We both had a cocktail, theses were expensive but really good. It was quite noisy as it was so busy.

Excellent food and wonderful restaurant!

Fantastic/very tasty food. The staff are both welcoming & attentive.

Excellent service and quality of food. Menu rápido good value for money.

Me and my mother came to this restaurant expecting great service looking at reviews we may of not been wearing the nicest clothes but that really should not matter I believe we had a table and we were sat for around 20-30 mins no service at all a new group came and sat next to us they were served straight away I believe this is unacceptable that we were not served. Before you come here check your wearing nice clothes if you want to feel welcome

Perfect place to eat. Good food, always awesome. Staff amazing. Our favourite place of all time to eat.

Tasty tapas! We had the market fish and it was trout with flavourful toppings, the pork belly and crisps. Everything was well seasoned and flavourful

Great food and atmosphere at a reasonable price. Great service from our waitress Daisy

I have been to this place 3 times before. To be honest, I am not sure why this place has a Michelin star. All 3 of my visits were mediocre. Not exceptional. Food was very average, taste has disappointed me and my partner. The second time I have tried this place, the food has disappointed my friend too. Service is great and lovely staff around, however food has been of a poor to average quality.

As a Michelin food guide recognized restaurant I must say that the atmosphere was fantastic. Staff was amazing alongside the food. Great portion control across the board for all the plates I was served, Food was seasoned and made to perfection! I have zero complaints to make about this restaurant and will have it as a must return sometime this year. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

The place is very nice, full of people constantly coming and going. The tapas were very delicious, perhaps too guement for my taste, I would have liked to try more traditional tapas like the ones you can try in Barcelona in any little bar on any corner. The typical barcelona beer, very smooth and easy to drink.

Excelent resturant, the food is outstanding. Deffo a must visit for anyone looking to eat out in Nottingham

Amazing food, definitely bring back the chickpea and yoghurt dish as it was amazing but now I see it’s been removed from the menu. The table alarm system is great, and allows you to go have a drink at one of the bars in the lace market before returning to an available table. However I will note that the stool tables could be a little more spaced out as you’re quite close and intruding onto other people. Also the pricing is perfect, five dishes were more than enough for me and my friend and it came to an affordable price; keep this up as this allows more people to dine out regularly. Hopefully next time I can try the sangria.

My partner and I came here for our anniversary. The vibes are always so nice, the food was delicious (it was my partner's first time eating there and he really liked everything too). Our server, James, was fantastic. I'm pretty sure he's served me before too, but he's great, so helpful and friendly. He also took a lovely picture of us for the evening. Thank you so much James for making our evening even more lovely 🥰

I love this place, the buzz, the food and great wine. My only gripe is you can’t book, but to be fair I’ve never had to wait too long for a table. You won’t be disappointed.

Good atmosphere, nice lighting and top food. Recommend ordering a sharp or tart drink to cut the richness of the food. Which, by the way, is completely delicious. Very well thought out and not too many things on the menu, but still enough variety. Quite quick service and didn't wait long for a table, despite it being a weekend lunchtime

Short and sweet- the best food and cocktails we have ever had. The service is world class and the food is like that one scene out of Ratatouille, but for every bite <3

Amazing tapas, great atmosphere, shout out to Maisie our server for the menus guidance (Mushroom flatbread a genius call)

This is an ideal place to go to if you're after a quick bite to eat in town. There's no need to book a table (mainly because you can't anyway) so there may be a small wait but it's worth it. It's tapas food so you can pick from a good selection of dishes depending on how hungry you are. The food is excellent and good value. Well worth a visit.

Only came here as we couldn't get seats at one of the sister restaurants. Not a problem, as we all had a really good experience here. Friendly staff and great service. Food was great also, and there are vegetarian and vegan options.

Nice tapas and lovely bar. Had some really nice dishes including the lamb skewers, turnip carpaccio and fish. However slightly let down by the padron peppers which I found some were burnt and some were undercooked, as well the crispy chicken and crispy cauliflower both came fried in same sauce and think cauliflower dish could of been tastier not in batter.

Very good but waits a little long

Great food and vibes lovely place to eat with a nice bottle of wine. Highly recommended

Great staff, delicious food and fairly priced.

Lovely lively restaurant. No bookings but we only waited 10 minutes for a table,

Enjoyed eating here in the past, but came as a couple and we were told we could only sit at the bar as they were saving tables for 4 people. There were 6 small tables with only 40mins left...seems bad for business and disappointing for us! Obviously eating at a bar when there are tables available is not ok and very unwelcoming.

Very busy but lovely atmosphere. Food absolutely delicious. We ordered 3 plates each. Was far too much and didn't eat it all. Staff are friendly and very helpful. If you like tapes this is the place to go.

Great variety of tapas options and lovely food. Slightly expensive but definitely worth the money especially if you are going in a small group.

Came in last Saturday, very busy as the Xmas season is starting to kick off, but was a super experience nevertheless. More of a tapsy small plate style My personal favourite was the crispy cauliflower and the pork belly. A special shout out to Elliot who was absolutely lovely and helped me out with the menu and made some tasty recommendations.

Was lovely! Took my mum here she loved it.

Service was great, atmosphere was fine but noisy. For me the food wasn't great. It is tapas so there's a chance I didn't choose well but the potatoes were too salty for me and the lamb skewers were pure fat. The cheese churros were incredibly strange, I didn't expect them to be sweet with cheese on but they were. Not to my taste unfortunately.

Great Thursday dinner with a group of three. All the food was fantastic — best menu yet! Cant wait to come back. Manchego churros, spicy chorizo, and crispy cauliflower were our favorites!

Visited for the first time this weekend our party loved every minute. The food was incredible and VERY reasonably priced. The staff were welcoming and attentive. I cannot wait for our next visit!

It's really delicious. Especially pork belly! Everything else is also a great snack. Good service and nice atmosphere.

Everything brilliant today!! Food was outstanding as was the service. Estrella was so crisp & the music was great too! 10/10!

Great food with some nice cold beers. Very friendly and enthusiastic service. The Crispy Cauliflower is amazing. 🥰

Would be nice to have pictures of the tapas so you know what you were ordering and an indication of whether the dish is served hot or cold.

Overall very nice but each experience will be different due to different menues and staff. I’ve had the same dishes on different days which were noticeably different. Downside is it’s always busy and may have very long wait times.

Had a really enjoyable meal! We went for the rapido set and ordered some extra tapas to try and the charcuterie board. The food was great, the staff were lovely and friendly and the atmosphere was very enjoyable. Loved the steak tartare, charcuterie, pinchos, chorizo, croquetas, cauliflower, and loved the cinnamon egg tarts! The one we weren't so keen on was the fish as it tasted a bit perfume-y, but it was definitely interesting to try, and everything else was extremely enjoyable! Went for a birthday meal, so we did go all out! Would definitely return!

Absolutely brilliant 👏 We went on a very busy Friday night with no booking. We had to wait 5 minutes for a table, then we stayed for around an hour. The food was lovely and the staff did a fantastic job, considering it was so busy we could have been in there alone. Definitely visit if you are in Nottingham and love Spanish tapas ❤️

Came for my boyfriend’s birthday and it was a lovely experience and the food was lush!😩

I had this place on my list for the last two years and I was waiting to visit Nottingham to pay them a visit, unfortunately I was underwhelmed! We are Spanish family and definitely not very authentic Spanish flavours, neither usual tapas! Disappointed with the cauliflower and the chicken dish as they both are coated in the same style of batter deep fried and tossed with sauces, far away from Spain flavours and textures! We also had prawns and pork belly from the Josper oven, unfortunately both were dry and overcooked. On the opposite, beetroot and cheese was very nice, staff was attentive but busy therefore all over the place.

Great place for casual eating - good, fast and efficient service, good selection of tapas and drinks. Very busy and well organised place, waiter found us a table (otherwise wait was on hour). Food served relatively quickly - overall very good experience.

Amazing, the food and atmosphere is brilliant, the staff are super friendly and the best bit is, it’s great value. I go at times on my own and feel right at home. They also own Iberico which is the best tapas restaurant in Nottingham. They are both a must visit

Lovely food great atmosphere! Sound out to Wendy !!thanks for looking after us! ❤️

Such a lovely atmosphere, staff were so friendly and so welcoming, food was great- would 100% recommend :)!!

Not been here before but will definitely be visiting again food very tasty staff very friendly a great experience

Very accommodating, great food and good portions

Hands down, the best food me and my wife have had in a very long time. Immediately in my top 3 places to eat, everything was incredibly delicious. The staff were lovely and very helpful when my wife was unsure what to order. Already planning our next visit

Great food, very helpful staff our lady's loved the two for one cocktail 🍸

Food was lovely super flavourful! Highly recommend the chorizo and the steak 😋 The portion of the steak is tiny but the quality and flavours do make up for it ( deffo order 2 dishes😂 each) Only dish I wouldn’t recommend is the sourdough flat bread duck- unfortunately the duck was extremely dry but it may have been because it was the end of the night and we got a bad batch? Idk! Service was great, staff are warm welcoming and friendly take their time to explain things! The only thing I would suggest to maybe change the music make it more authentic Spanish or Latin music would be a great touch and really set the atmosphere!

One of the best restaurants in notts. Went for lunch and ordered from the Menu Rapido which means you get 2 dishes and a ‘to pick at’ for £17 which is an amazing deal in my opinion. Came with 2 friends so we all had plenty of food! The crispy cauliflower and crispy chicken are amazing and I particularly enjoyed the cured market fish. I have a shellfish allergy and my server was very clear on what I could/ couldn’t eat. Service is great only downside is that you can’t book and it does get busy!

Good food and vibe, there’s a lot to like about Bar Iberico. No reservations so get in early to minimise wait time. If there’s a bit of a queue they’ll give you a pager so you can go to a local bar and get notified once your table is free - neat! Nice range of tapas, particularly liked the blue cheese and beetroot. Octopus croquettes looked good too. For dessert my son had the pastel del nata (custard tart) - perfect. I’m going to be a bit mean and say the ice cream was just alright - but then I hold a high bar. CALLING TEAM IBERICO! Why not some authentic Spanish cheesecake?

Would be 4.5 stars if I could. Overall it is a lovely place with a great atmosphere, very busy, and the servers were very friendly and helpful. However the food we ordered was just nothing special. We got a cheese board, chorizo, fish which were all ok. The crispy chicken was nice but the same kind you’d find in every restaurant. The patats bravas were great though. I think other food options might of impressed me more so it’s still a high rating

The atmosphere was great, and the service was also excellent. The front desk staff helped me store the boxes. My English is not good, but the service staff are very patient in listening to me and patiently explaining things to me. The food is delicious, I recommend cod and chocolate ice cream. The drinks are also very good.

Without further ado, let’s look at the pictures.

No reservations, great food especially the crispy cauliflower! Really good service too, quick, polite, polished. Excellent choice for a romantic dinner! Some good vegan and vegetarian options too, plus non alcoholic beer on draft.

I cannot fault this place. Great staff, great vibe, awesome dishes. I cannot wait to go back.

We had a wonderful evening. Jordan was amazing. He was warm, professional, extremely knowledgeable and made our night very special. Thank you 😊😊

Fab food, everything was so flavoursome! Restaurant environment was a little noisy

Jake was lovely, and the food was incredible as always!

We have been before, but felt a need to review this time. The service was quick, attentive and helpful. The food was hot and full of flavour, and arrived quickly and everything looked attractive to eat as well. We really enjoyed this lunch time dining experience whilst people watching and enjoying the Hockley vibe. We washed our lovely lunch down with a pint of Spanish beer... Totally recommended, will definitely frequent again. Happy customers

I randomly found this place while walking and it blew my expectation. The location is very good, not crowded and not empty, they got plenty of seats outside, inside and downstairs. I came during graduation weeks and it was slightly busy but, that didn't stop the staff from serving at appropriate time and nothing came late.

As soon as we walked in we were able to choose where we want to sit and were offered a jug of water to have as we chose our meals. They have a wide range of tapas choices as well as offering a menu rapido of £16.95 where we got Mixed olives, Market fish pinchos and Crispy chicken and spicy jerez sauce, which was a good size for the price. We also chose a crispy lamb and goats cheese flatbread that was perfect. The quality of the food was amazing and it was all very delicious, furthermore, the staff were very kind and attentive. Thank you!

First time visiting, with partner being from Spain he knows his Tapas !! Wow wow wow food was on point ! Drinks were amazing and the pudding was to. Shout out to Saul what a lovely polite guy . We will be back . Dale and Emma

We loved the tapas and drinks. The service was attentive and friendly, even tho it was busy. The shrimp was awesome, the mushrooms fantastic. I wholeheartedly recommend.

Go here regularly, the menu rapido is really good value for money, food is always excellent.

Superb service, great food, and atmosphere. Served quickly with authentic tapas - a must visit! Thank you to everyone there for a very enjoyable experience

Great bar! Wonderfull staff, delicious food and drinks!

The food looks delicious but tastes terrible

Great place for sharing plates. Don't think of it as one meal each, but as a variety of things everyone will share. Essential to have the mixtures of flavours, and some spicy some creamy, for maximum effect.

Me and a friend had dinner here before going to a concert at the arena. It is ideal with parking close by and the arena just down the road. The staff were welcoming and very helpful and the atmosphere was nice and relaxed. The food was delicious and the portion sizes were brilliant. I can definitely recommend the Spanish tortilla, the crispy chicken (which had a good kick of heat from the sauce) and the crispy cauliflower was really nice. We finished with the churro’s and chocolate sauce, which finished the meal perfectly. It really made the night more enjoyable and we would definitely eat there again.

Service was a little slow but they knocked a meal off the price without us asking. Food was absolutely delicious, will definitely be returning!

I don’t know how this restaurant has such a good score. Food was at most edible. Service was good though.

The opening time says midnight but we went at 10pm and apparently they don’t accept anyone after 10pm on a Saturday

Delicious food as always, great service Must try’s Lamb flat bread Steak tartare and bone marrow Sticky chicken Pork belly

Excellent food and amazing service

Absolutely lovely, food brilliant, enjoyed everything. Would highly recommend.

Good tapas - quite a wide selection

When we first went to the restaurant, it was incredibly full and there were no empty tables, so we were given a device and told that we would be called with this device when the table was empty, and while we were waiting, we walked around the area, which we liked very much. Talking about the food, it was simply amazing. Every meal we ate was delicious and we ate to the point of losing ourselves. The same was true for cocktails, special cocktails really tasted great. Even though the atmosphere inside was a little noisy due to the crowd, it wasn't too bad. A mistake was made in the service and the wrong plate was brought. Even though one of us was a vegetarian, the plate was served with pork, but we noticed the mistake before eating it. And the table was not cleaned regularly. Apart from these, it can be said that the employees are mostly friendly. For those who will go to this place, we definitely recommend grilled broccoli with avocado sauce, pistachio bread and smoked almonds.

The menu was confusing at first but once we understood and ordered we were completely blown away. Their food is really tasty 😋 , we will definitely go back

Absolutely gorgeous food and atmosphere. By far my favourite place in Nottingham.

I was supposed to come here on a first date once…not sure we would have made it past that night if we had eaten here…Okay that’s harsh, but this is a classic tale of expectations not meeting reality. I opted for the “Menu Rapido”, with the Patatas Bravas and Sticky Pork Ribs as my tapas options. Whist the patatas bravas was good (you can’t go wrong with potatoes, and if you do we have a big problem), the ribs has a strange flavour. Neither were they weren’t easy to eat; I can imagine the sheer horror on my date’s face had I had the chance to order them that night… Additionally, the ribs had an extra £2 charge, something I did not realize and quite frankly, do not believe is worth it. The staff were lovely and friendly, and the restaurant had a relaxed atmosphere. Overall, whilst the experience was nice, this restaurant won’t be getting a second date with me.

Reasonably priced buy the food exceeded our expectations, small wait to get a table but well worth it.

Came to this restaurant with friends last year, great service and food. Told my wife how good it was, took her this last Wed tea time, although there was 2\3 tables spare and a couple sat at a table made up for 4, we were told that I couldn't sit at any of the spare tables unless I was a 4 !!... and so was turned away whilst they had empty tables, unbelievable arrogance and attitude to customers ! Wife very unimpressed !!..
