Brindisa Kitchen Bar Borough in Southwark

Muy buenas tapas para comer sentados al lado del Borought Market. Ambiente muy animado. Muy buena atención. Variedad y calidad.

We needed a brief escape from the relentless crowds of Borough Market and this was the most perfect pit stop. All of the staff here were welcoming, friendly and attentive. The service surpassed expectations - our server, Marta, is a real credit to Brindisa. The standout dishes for us were the ham croquettes, the pork cheeks & the octopus… but the King Scallop really was another level entirely. It will stay rent free in my mind until I visit again!

Comida boa, mas atendimento horrível do garçom. Sem educação. Fez piada com a língua portuguesa. Nunca mais retorno. Pedimos algumas tapas e ouvimos a ironia "que fome".

Not as good as the Soho Brindisa. Very disappointing. Patatas bravas came with almost no tomato sauce, very little sobrisada in the broken eggs. Horrible loos. No atmosphere. Soho is fabulous. Borough market Brindisa is to be avoided.

As this is essentially a kitchen with a diner around it, it’s likely something you’ll love or…not. Personally I really liked the setup & there is one side which is a little more cosy & less exposed. The food comes out fairly quick, and you have the added bonus of seeing it being cooked in front of you. Our waitress was friendly & helpful, very much appreciated given how busy the market was.

Not sure if it’s the first Spanish restaurant in London (I doubt) but a nice experience in the heart of London. It’s a small tapa bar, with classic Spanish menu, also delicious paella. Be expected for rather packed sitting though.

Not as good as it used to be. You can’t book, generally speaking. Rushed us in around 6pm on a Wednesday and instructed us that we had 90mins on table. I asked why given they didn’t accept bookings and they explained they want the table for the waiting list. Food decent but we wanted more bread to soak up juices and they were very slow, to the point we had to keep reminding them. Ordered another bottled of wine and were declined because “they wanted the table”. The bill arrived immediately, unlike the bread. Plenty of other tapas bars in the vicinity who offer good service and want you to enjoy your evening. We won’t be returning.

Absolutely lovely food. And our waiter Tania was amazing, described menu to us and helped us make good food choices very helpful. Will definitely pass on to friends to try.

Food was quite good, but service was quite apathetic. Asked for a slight delay between courses, which we were assured wasn't an issue. Food then arrived all at the same time (6 dishes), 5 minutes later. Unfortunately drinks took an additional 10 minutes to arrive, by which stage we had pretty much finished the food. Quite average and wouldn't be in any hurry back.

The service was very good, the atmosphere was nice, we had a lovely conversation with another couple sitting next to us, and remained warm under a heat lamp, unfortunately that is the best that I can say. The food was a disappointment to say the least. The baby squid for example was VERY fishy, the worst squid dish I have ever ordered by far. Very small selection of wine, one offering of each type. I ordered a glass of the Bico da Ran, Fento, a Spanish white. Tip of 13.5% is added to the bill.

Walked in on a Wednesday night 20 min wait at the bar. Staff very friendly the place was rammed and great buzz - very decent Tempranillo at £40 - tapas were quick to the table. Salt cod could have been soaked a bit longer too salty. Other than that all tasty. One criticism, the tables are too small - 6 tapas and a bottle wine didn’t fit a very small table / £100 inc service for 2 - I’d go back

Walking around at Borough Market, we came across this small eatery, basically seats around a tiny open kitchen. Arrived there a few minutes before they were officially opened and had a chance to talk to their chef (thanks for the chat😏). Tried their croquetas del día (jamón) -a must try - Manchego Fries (mind-blown 🤯) hot, soft, pillows of deliciousness, with a chili sauce, dusted with Manchego (I should confess: I don’t like Manchego and would DEFINITELY order it again), order of bread (they toast it over their grill for a smoky flavor and serve it with oil/vinegar dipping sauce). Got the chance to see them prepare some of the other dishes (calamari, churros, tortilla española) and all looked fantastic. Can’t wait to go back and try these!!

The steak sandwich was amazing! Highly recommend a visit! Great staff and lovely stop for lunch. Would definitely come again.

Dropped in here at short notice and a table was sorted out for us within minutes. Food was really good and the service provided by Francesca was brilliant

Toda una estafa. No recomendable. Muy poca cantidad de comida para lo que realmente nos costó. Una tabla de quesos 14 libras y tan solo venian 5 MINI trozos de queso, para nada representa lo que es la comida ESPAÑOLA. También la atención muy mala ya que nos sentimos estafadas por la camarera. Adjunto ticket de cerca de 80 libras ...recalcando que todas las tapas eran enanas y con muy poca cantidad.

There are far better tapas restaurants in London. The portions were exceptionally small for the price (about 12 padrón peppers for £6.50). The arroz negro was over cooked, prawns hadn’t been cleaned and one dish was forgotten. On the plus side, staff were friendly and the forgotten dish was lovely when it did eventually arrive. Overall it was a disappointing experience.

Rude service - over priced mediocre (at best) food - sticky tables - uncomfortable seating - will DEFINITELY not be returning!

Breakfast consisting of Vermut with Chorizo Tortilla and quality Bread. Mix with Borough Market people watching and smile as they choose elsewhere to eat. When you know you know lol!

Stopped by for a bite & a glass of wine while wandering around the market. Tortilla perfection. Best olives ever. And vibes that made us feel like we were in Barcelona or Madrid. Super.

AMAZING! We also went to their shop too & spent loads lol! Tania & Tony were great hosts & the chefs were brilliant. All prepared in front of you, great vibe fab food

The service was a little slow but acceptable. The food however was very poor, calamari tasted very old, the sausage was tasteless. We love tapas and have lived in Spain. We will not go back to this restaurant.

We stopped for a lunch at the counter and really enjoyed a good meal. Tortilla, croquettes of the day, chorizo, and bocadillo were perfect. Vue on the kitchen showed us that the cook takes good care in the making of plates and food. Good value products and warm welcome by staff was appreciated also. A place to recommend… my husband is Spanish and really said it was like Spain ! Thank you

The manager charged us £5 extra for the salad the meal came with anyway. The menu says “served with salad or beans” so I chose salad so she charged an £5 and then she charged us an £8.30 discretionary Service (I’m so disgusted that we...

I’ve visited three times, the first two times we enjoyed the fish or vegetable dish of the day. We had an excellent fish dish, and a lentil stew. The tapas is always nice, especially the manchego and quince. Beer is lovely although a bit over...

Hi, I would like to express my disappointment about the service I received on 3/7/22 at 8 pm. The service staff who was bald, made it very obvious that he spends more than 5mins on tables with female patrons he finds attractive. The Italian staff...

I feel like I’ve had my leg lifted here. I fancied a lite bite and a beer and requested some cheese tapas and some ham, with a Cana (Spanish for draft beer and described on the menu as a ‘pint’). The cheese and ham boards...

Absolutely 5 star food and beautiful place to eat Would 100% go again The croquettes are absolutely beautiful and the meat board was delicious

Walked in just before 10pm on a Saturday night. Luckily we did not have to wait for a table inside. The menu was nice and the service good.

Cycled here for a festive treat. Bike racks outside, cosy atmosphere and delicious food. It was busy so we had a half hour wait which we spent walking round Borough market. Spoilt for choice but particularly liked the Monte Enebro goats cheese dish with beetroot...

Brindisa Kitchen Bar Borough London Watch the bill. Sneaky tactics. 820775787 I was in London in November 2021 and chanced upon Borough Market. It's fantastic. That's more then I can say for Brindisa Kitchen Bar. I sat at the bar in the market. I had...

Great place to eat. Clean. Friendly. Indoor and outdoor eating. Great selection of tapas meals. Efficient staff. Felt safe.

Such a great place and service! We were very excited about the food - especially the tortilla. We were quickly seated but when ordering were then told that there was no tortilla left. We said that we were disappointed but went ahead and ordered some...

Such a lovely place to have tapas and drinks with friends - really buzzy atmosphere and great staff. Food and service top notch.

Good food, very quaint and in a fabulous location. Amazing to see the chefs cooking your food whilst all sat around :) My only gripe would be the staff and service provided. Service was lacking and staff weren't overly friendly.

Tuna and Kalamari sandwich are eatable. Did not see enough octopus in octopus plate... could not really taste the octopus.

Went for dinner with a friend. Food was great. Sangria was amazing. Johan served us and was the Best!!!

This is super addition to Borough Market. I visited on a very cold Thursday lunchtime and so the bar was not busy. The staff were all bundled up in woolly hats and kept in high spirits. My favourite dish was the trout on pepper topped...

Very busy, but told a table will be free in a couple of minutes, suggested have a drink at the bar. Very soon we’re shown to table, water arrived and after short time order taken. Food arrived very quickly, hot food still nice and hot,...

This is the inner market outpost of the main Brindisi restaurant which is just outside the market. The menu was very interesting - mostly tapas type food that you can combine or upsize. The crab and bean stew was super as was the rabbit with...

We found this hidden gem in Borough Market after walking around the different stalls to buy some foods for Christmas. We needed a place to have a drink and a bite and we ended up enjoying a fantastic lunch. The food is remarkable and the...
