Great atmosphere. Food was reasonably priced (deal for £17.50 with olives, 2 tapas and a side). Service a little slow but they were very busy. Found the tacos a bit dry and other items a little overcooked but food was tasty on the whole and I would go back.

We are regulars here and Heather was nice enough to let us have the choice of the whole menu and not just the party menu, we were a large party if 8. However when we arrived the party menus were ready on the tables, so I had to get to and ask for the main menu. The good things were the lovely lady allocated to our table, the drinks came quickly and were lovely. We were all disappointed with one of the servers who practically threw the dishes in the middle of the table and walked off. Maybe she was having a bad day, so we let it slide. The cheese and meat platters didn't have the caperberries and onions, which was disappointing and I had to send a cod gratin dish back as it was all dried up. We would definitely come again, just think they were busy and maybe things weren't just up to scratch. We paid the service charge a bit reluctantly, but this was only due to the lovely server who did look after us.

Popped in here before going to the theatre one evening. We booked on line which was easy and they were expecting us. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the food. The tapas were delicious and there were also plenty of vegetarian options for my wife. Also a decent selection of beers. We would definitely come back here again.

Enjoyed a lovely afternoon / evening of Tapas at this wonderful restaurant. Chose a good time to go before it got too busy in Nottingham city centre. Food and service were great - each of us having 3-4 dishes. Many thanks to the Deputy Manager; Barry, who knows us as regulars took it upon himself to adjust our table booking to suit our seating requirement.

This was our returning visit after a very disappointing visit the previous month and wow!!!!! James, was amazing, full of enthusiasm and knowledge - he even recommended for us to go to the Tap House, which is located a few doors away from Baresca plus we were discussing his bee keeping in hucknall (which is where we live) - a very attentive service. The whole experience was so different from our last visit - the atmosphere was amazing, everybody was full of smiles and the explanation of the various menus was fantastic. We are so happy that we chose the opportunity to see if the previous meal was a ‘one off’ and it definitely was, ….our previous experience has definitely been replaced with the enthusiasm to want to go back.

Went for a nice lunch - our ‘date lunch’ only to be very disappointed! We have been several times before however the last time was quite a while ago, we always have an open mind with options and found that the menu del dia was very limited, we were given a specials menu only with the options, which was very limited and the standard main menu - this was very different from what listed on the was on there website. With this in mind, we chose the dishes from the main menu, the food was lovely but the whole ambience was lack lustre, it was very quiet for a Saturday lunch (we booked a table for 1.30pm), the staff had no enthusiasm, no smiles and overall, soulless - would we go back again, NO

We ordered 6 dishes, and as the menu states, they came out as they were cooked and ready to serve. We had 5 dishes which were lovely and then sat for a bit. I said to my husband that I thought we'd ordered 6 dishes, so I also mentioned it to the waitress. Anyway, our table was completely cleared apart from our drinks. We were about to go and pay the bill when our 6th dish arrived. I wasn't terribly impressed as no one apologised, and as I'd not heard anything from the waitress after mentioning our 6th dish, we assumed that we hadn't ordered one. We ate. We paid. We left.

Decided to try Baresca as a friend recommended it. And it did not disappoint. We sat outside as the weather was nice, so cannot comment on the environment. I briefly went inside to ask for a menu and the waitress was not very friendly and seemed annoyed. However she quickly bought the menus and cleaner our tables. Worked in hospitality so I guess we all have our off days. I think the manager came to take our orders, he was so lovely and attentive! The food came pretty quickly, and it was delicious! The vegan tapas were 10/10, we had the made vegan Peshwari, Korean Cauliflower and patatas bravas. It was all amazing. As we were leaving a different waitress was really kind and asks us about our experience. I would definitely come back.

My first visit a few weeks ago on a Saturday. It was quite busy but we're seated straight away. The food was fabulous. One friend commented it was the best she's tasted outside Spain. I had the vegetarian options, but two friends had vegan and it was utterly delicious. One friend gluten free, and found it easy to order. Am visiting again in a week as it was that good. It's worth it for the flat bread and patatas Bravatas alone.

Stopped on an impromptu Saturday lunch, not really expecting them to have a table, but they managed to fit 2 adults and 2 kids in. They provided full a la carte, lunch special and a kids menu for plenty of options. The tapas selection arrived fairly promptly on an 'as its ready' basis, which inevitability leaves someone staring impatiently and empty handed at a table full of people tucking in. Food was delicious, kids enjoyed the flatbreads, the fish tacos and pork belly tacos were particularly good. Recommended for a lovely lunch.

This is my favourite tapas restaurant in Nottingham! I started coming here around 2017 so have seen the menu grow and develop over those years and haven’t had a bad meal in that time. The Menu Del Dia used to be around £12 which was scandalously cheap for what it was, which is now ~£18 but still absolutely worth that with a delicious Catalan bread, 2 tapas and a side dish. The wine is great and so are the cocktails, and paired with a great atmosphere and setting it’s one of my favourite spots in Nottingham by far.

We chose to drive, as it was raining and parked in the Fletcher Gate multistorey car park, which is virtually across the road from the restaurant. The ambience was good and the staff friendly (special thanks to James who attended to us). He gave us his suggestion on ordering Tapas menu (as we were here for the first time).

Really fine tapas, delicious and well presented. Priced accordingly but perhaps not unfairly.

Staff were friendly and attentive and brought the food in a well paced way (we had 6 dishes between two of us).

We visited tonight for the Fiesta Gastronomica and I was quite disappointed after looking forward to it since Baresca advertised this on their instagram. This was for a birthday celebration so I left feeling deflated, as the food was average at best. Waited 45 minutes for the first 2 plates to arrive at the table, I asked for bread in the meantime and got told no, as the food will be coming….came away hungry, and disappointed with the flavours that were produced. The dessert also had no white chocolate brittle on, and the cheesecake, just tasted strongly of cheese, it was not enjoyable. Usually love the standard menu at Baresca and was exciting to try these dishes but left hungry and disheartened by the whole experience. Rang multiple times in the week to check our booking time and had no answer throughout no matter what time I called. Not usually one to write a review but felt this needed to be mentioned.

We have just hosted our annual festive work party at the basement of Baresca for 44 people and this is the second time we have held our event here. The private hire basement has superb amenities with it's own toilets, cloakroom and bar. The décor is cosy and welcoming with fairy lights on the ceiling and the seating arrangement creates a friendly atmosphere with ample space for a dancefloor. The food is and always has been excellent at this venue, we have regular lunch meetings here in the restaurant on the ground floor and it continues to top the list of our favourite places to dine in Nottingham with something available for everyone. All dietary requirements were catered for at the party, with appropriate substitutes provided in all instances, exceeding our expectations on this occasion. The staff are always warm and genuinely friendly and went above and beyond to help with every step of the planning process for the event. We will most definitely hire this venue again in the future and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to host a party here or to just pop in for a meal!

Have been coming to Baresca for many years. Generally things have been very good. However, this time, they were beyond very good - they were excellent. There were tapas dishes that were new to me and they were so tasty and decent sized portions. As a vegetarian, I believe Baresca have a good choice of veggie options. The staff were helpful, efficient and friendly. Personally, I consider this to be the best tapas eatery in the City centre, especially for vegetarian.

Had been to Baresca several times previously, including for my birthday a few years ago, and had a pleasant experience, however was very disappointed this time. This visit was over Saturday lunchtime (1:30pm- 2:45pm). The food was ok and staff were friendly but the service was INCREDIBLY slow. We regularly eat in tapas restaurants, so are aware that it's normal for dishes arrive at different times but it was ridiculous how long they took. Other than the kids flatbread and fries nothing - not even sides and mains - could be eaten together given how spread out they were delivered. Ordered: - Kids flatbread and fries - One main tapa and patatas bravas side - One menú del día (Catalán bread, two mains and patatas bravas side). First menú del día tapas dish: arrived a reasonable 10 mins after ordering. Kids flatbread and fries... and Catalán bread: around 10 mins later. The first patatas bravas dish: around 5 mins later. Second patatas bravas and main tapa dish: between 5 and 10 mins later. Second menú del día: almost 15 mins later. Waiting around 45 mins from first ordering for a main dish to arrive is very poor. Meant the whole meal was spread out and nothing could be eaten together ie would expect patatas bravas side to be able to be eaten with some of the mains. Not an enjoyable meal experience with a family as everyone was eating and waiting at different times. Really disappointing. When paying I asked the staff if they were very busy and they said they weren't as busy as usual, which surprised me. A 10% gratuity had been added to the bill and they asked if I'd like to remove it. I paid it, as it's the waiting staff who hopefully get it. Don't feel it's their fault personally that the restaurant is clearly taking on more customers than they can handle. Would love to have the opportunity to return and have a better experience but I'm not sure I'd be willing to risk paying so much for such painfully slow service. I'd be open to being convinced otherwise by the restaurant.

We didn't get to the food. Walk-in, no reservation we were sat at the bar. No problem, we were told we'd get the same service etc. 15 mins go by and noone has spoken to us or taken an order, a drinks order taken after 20 mins. 10 mins later we're still waiting while 4 members of staff are behind the bar just chatting. Got up and walked out at that point. I'd understand if it was busy and everyone was rushed but we felt forgotten about and the other couple next to us on the bar looked similar. Don't seat people at the bar if your staff are going to ignore them.

Awful experience! It was a busy Saturday, so of course we expected slow service but what we received was ridiculous. The majority of the waiters/ waitresses were stood around the bar while we waited for someone to take our order. They must of walked past us at least 20 times before we had to ask one of them to take our ordet. We received our food before the drinks ( we could see our drinks on the side but every member of staff just walked past them). The food was great, no complaints whats so ever. We asked for the bill, which again we seemed to wait forever for. The girl we asked just seemed to be ignoring us. A bill was brought to the table next to us, which was definitely our bill as when we went up to ask why it was taking so long, it had already been paid. Thankfully the managers were great and sorted us out straight away. I’ve worked in hospitality for years so hate to complain but basic manners and organisation need improvement, it felt like no one knew who was doing what.

All dishes ordered from set menu, yet one main dish, one veg dish and one side dish arrived and then nothing else for over 10 mins. Took an hour to receive all 9 dishes, even with reminders to staff. Only seemed to impact ourselves, as there were 3 separate couples eating nearby who received all their dishes pretty much together. For us, appalling experience that spoiled the fact that the food was very good. Made comments to waitress when paying (without gratuity, unlike me), but making comments here also as this issue needs to be resolved.

Visited today for lunch for a birthday celebration. We were the only two customers in the restaurant and were expecting a relaxed lunch. Food was ordered and eventually arrived after a wait. Chicken wings were tepid ( not ideal) and both the meat balls and patatas were barely warm , just covered with a very hot sauce. We mentioned this to the server who was very defensive and suggested we had no idea about the concept of tapas. Well oddly we do as we have Spanish family and that concept does not include food that has not been heated properly and to required food temperature regulations. He then stated all food is temperature probed before serving which clearly had not been done . I'm not impressed with any food establishment that serves luke warm chicken and then instead of rectifying the problem accuses the customer of being ignorant. There was no offer to replace the tepid dishes or apologise. As we were the only customers in an empty restaurant this could have been easily resolved without any inconvenience to other customers. Sadly his attitude was enough to ensure we will never return to Baresca and I would suggest to the owners that perhaps they need to remind staff about minimum temperatures for serving hot food. Awful experience and all it needed was a courteous apology, instead be were treated like rubbish.

Great food, great portions (bigger than I expected for tapas). It was a really enjoyable afternoon lunch, reasonably priced. Will definitely be back.

Food was cold and service slow, which is unusual as have had many a good meal. Must have caught them in a bad night

We were looking for somewhere to go for a light lunch (with wine🙂) and found this tapas bar. Although it wasn't busy, the atmosphere was good, and the staff were extremely welcoming. I would recommend this place.

First time visiting and was not disappointed!! between the 3 of us we ordered 10 dishes, which was brought out exactly how it should for a Tapas........a few dishes at a time as not to be overwhelming. Food was hot and delicious ( I particularly loved the chicken wings 😋) and the drinks where also good. In all would highly recommend and would go back tomorrow if I could.

I have multiple food intolerances and the restaurant were made aware of these beforehand when we booked, as well as when we got to the restaurant. I ended up not receiving half of the food I was meant to (perhaps was given to wrong person) and I was given food with one of the allergens on which I did not realise until half way through when I tasted it, so will now be Ill from this, absolutely awful, lucky it’s not a severe allergy such as a nut allergy, I will definitely not be going back here

At age 72, good coffee has been a lifelong love. With its distinctive lime green livery you cannot miss this little gem of a business on Nottingham's Heathcote Street. Effy serves quite simply the best coffee I have ever had.

Sadly, every time we have been the servers have been rude - refused to let a woman on crutches take a seat while she waited, are not attentive and get annoyed if you get something yourself! However the food is good and the price is reasonable.
