Really good tapas bar. First night out on first ever visit to Falmouth and the evening could not have been better. Friendly staff and great vegetarian options. Sadly we didn't try the aubergine which is one of their best sellers. Would happily visit again and just wish there was a place to eat, that was this good, in our home town.

Superb!!!! 10 dishes, each was excellent. Highlights included the soft shell crab, meatballs and pork cheeks but the most outstanding was the aubergine - nothing we’ve had before! Kids loved it, we loved it, we hope they enjoyed us too. Will be back!!

We have been here several times and popped in on off chance on availability and we were offered a place at the bar. It was brilliant. We saw the superb staff in action. They were really busy, but nothing was a problem. Connor and Sylvia made us feel very welcomed and were very attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed the tapas. It was so delicious and generous portions. We had a great evening, thank you

A large group of us visited Bodega 18 last night and we were blown away by the experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff were incredible, making sure we had everything we needed and wanted throughout the evening. A huge shout-out to Connor and Ellie who were simply fantastic. They were so attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure our party had a memorable time. Their service truly elevated our dining experience. And then there's the food – simply excellent! Every dish was delicious, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. It was also wonderful to see such fantastic vegan options on the menu, which our vegan diners thoroughly enjoyed. Bodega 18 is a must-visit in Falmouth. We can't recommend it highly enough for anyone looking for top-notch food and truly exceptional service. We'll be back for sure.

Very accommodating and helpful staff for a large table. The soft shell crab and aubergine were to die for. However, morcilla and bravas were average. Would come back but choose differently.

Unfortunately although we have heard great things we came away very underwhelmed. Mid week dining with OH for his birthday and our 2 grown up daughters. Good choices of dishes and we had quite a few and the only one I would have again was the bread. Everything was really underseasoned and lacking flavour. I was so looking forward to this meal but left feeling really disappointed.

Based on reviews we had seen we were super excited to try this place but it really let us down. Service although friendly (our waitress was lovely) was so slow. The food was the worst part, the calamari was completely inedible, so tough and over cooked, the waitress was understanding and agreed. This was taken off our bill as we didn’t even eat it. The prawn pil pil and fish tempura were tasteless compared to others we’ve had. The rest of the food was ‘meh’, we both said it was the worst tapas we had eaten. Also expensive for portion sizes! Only nice part of the bread. Such a shame but unfortunately we didn’t have a good experience.

The food was very tasty! What I, as a Spaniard, cannot understand: There was no bread with the meal. Something like that is unthinkable in a Spanish restaurant. It had to be ordered and paid for separately. In general the prices were very high. The atmosphere was very chic, but not very comfortable and quite sterile. In summary: food quality top, price-performance ratio a flop.

This is a lovely little restaurant with great staff, delicious food and a fab vibe. We went on a Tuesday night and it wasn't busy, but there were enough people there to give it a good atmosphere. The bread (sourced from a baker in the same street) was absolutely delicious. We had 5 tapas and a jug of Sangria, the prawns were my favourite. Amber looked after us beautifully and if we were on holiday longer, we'd have eaten there again.

We lunched at Bodega 18, Falmouth and we can only say it was the best Tapas we have had in the UK. They recommended the bread and olive oil/balsamic vinegar and it was outstanding . We followed with their lunch special of 3 tapas for £17.95 together with a glass of wine and coffee, all for £46. The service was also excellent, a pity this restaurant on that day was not better supported, you are missing a treat.

We've been to Bodega 18 a few times now and our experiences have been consistently positive. The staff are very helpful, without being intrusive, and the atmosphere is relaxed. The menu isn't extensive but there's a decent range of meat, fish and vegetarian options (although if you don't eat meat or fish at all you're likely to be disappointed). For our last meal we paired a nice white Rioja with meatballs, cannelloni, sardines and calamari. On the side we enjoyed patatas bravas, aubergine and bread with olives. The last one was surprisingly good (with fresh, warm bread) and all of the dishes were tasty. We did also try the fried prawns which were less successful and maybe frying isn't a forte of Bodega 18? As other reviewers have noted the restaurant is on the expensive side with prices more typical of London. For four people, with a bottle of wine and a cocktail, the total was £150 without the service charge. So definitely not a cheap meal out but nevertheless it made a nice change from Cornish pasties!

We went for the: Potatas Bravas Jamon Croquettes Meatballs Pork Cheeks Beef tomato salad The prawn pil pil Peppered Salmon We really loved the pork cheeks, that was my fave but a really great mix. The tomato salad was a light dish, the croquettes with chorizo jam were really great and I loved the simplicity yet tasty was of the meatball sauce.

During our delightful getaway from London, my in-laws, partner, our son, and I had the pleasure of exploring the charming streets of Falmouth. We were fortunate enough to stumble upon this hidden gem of a restaurant. Even though we hadn't made a reservation, the attentive front-of-house staff managed to find a table for our party of five. From the moment we stepped inside, the service was flawless, and the culinary experience was nothing short of sensational. The seafood dishes, including the calamari, prawns, and mussels, were exceptionally delicious, as one would expect in a coastal town like Falmouth. However, the real standout was the milk fried bread, which was a revelation to our taste buds. It was reminiscent of a bread and butter pudding, but on a whole new level of deliciousness. In a world where exceptional hospitality is rare, it was truly heartwarming to find a local restaurant that embodies the true spirit of hospitality. This hidden gem not only impressed us with its outstanding food and service but also left a lasting impression with its warm and welcoming atmosphere.

First time visiting Falmouth and always feel apprehensive about booking restaurants in new places without word of mouth recommendations, but our expectations were greatly exceeded. The food and service was fantastic. We particularly loved the bread, smoked anchovies and lamb. Our only criticism was that even though the pork cheek was cooked beautifully, the flavour wasn't as flavoursome as the other dishes. Will definitely return if we ever visit Falmouth again.

One of the best tapas we have ever had. Absolutely delicious, especially the fried aubergines which we didn’t expect to love so much! Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. Being pregnant I couldn’t drink but they made me a mocktail (would have loved to have an option...

We went for our anniversary and we were treated with the staff wishing us a happy anniversary as we put this in our booking. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and locally sourced. I will definitely be going back

When walking in we-spoke to the only person available which was behind the bar. We said we would like a table for 2 . He said heres the menu go sit over there and pointed to a couple of empty tables . ( no polite banter) After about 10 minutes he came over and asked what we wanted to drink we asked for a specific wine he said haven't got that but i have (whatever) and said we could sample it came over and bashed the glass ion the table . We couldn't belief it (basil faulty out of faulty towers) we just said ok thats fine. He brought the wine over then asked for our order. Honestly the tapas was awful no taste and the tapas dishes were very small compared to normal tapas dishes. Not sure what happened that night but wouldn't recommend it the mermaid across the road does a much better meal 😞

Lovely little quaint spot to escape the chaos for a cocktail and a stone baked pizza. The former chef from downstairs, now running the place has his own ideas to improve the space, which we are excited to see when we return. Would highly recommend the salted caramel martinis! Reasonably priced, with amazing views across the harbour.
