Gremio De Brixton in Waltham Forest

This is the worst restaurant I have ever been to. They messed up my order the first time I went there and then did the same thing the 2nd time as well. Awful customer service. I have had to have a refund both times I have been here and will never return ever again

Had a wonderful evening here for my birthday!! I had a large group, ordered a banquet menu and Gremio were attentive and the food was delicious.

Great location for dinner and drinks but the food was not good at all.

My family and I went for Saturday brunch. The Brunch menu was fabulous with filling portion sizes. Highly recommend the Bread and Olive Oil, it was to die for. All the staff were accommodating and courteous. The restaurant was wonderfully atmospheric. Will definitely eat there again.

Good food, very reasonably priced, but the staff, the venue and atmosphere were fabulous. Such a brilliant venue

Loved loved loved our dinner here last night. The food was so good, the servers were so attentive and lovely. The place is so cool; the low vaulted ceilings and all the decor is just such a vibe.

Delicious food and really nice and attentive staff x

Really great food and great value for money. We went on a Thursday evening and it was a bit quiet but can imagine there is a great atmosphere when it’s a bit busier. Tapas can get a bit expensive but we were really impressed that we had such a great meal (and a couple of sangrias/beers each) for about £45 per person. Will definitely be back.

Came here for our weekly date night and absolutely loved the food and atmosphere. Staff is very friendly! Will definitely be back.

The atmosphere is fantastic, and the darkness and candles, guitar, Spanish music, and great wines. The only thing that I had never again was the churros! It's only crunchy but not well cooked. The environment is great!

Fantastic tapas restaurant. Have been a few times, steak and chicken are amazing. Staff are great and so helpful. Go for the brixton sangria! Feels like a real hidden gem.

Delicious food. Great atmosphere. Music was a bit loud making conversation in a naturally echoey crypt a bit difficult. Everyone was trying to shout above the background noise this making it worse. Menu font is tiny on brown paper so bring your glasses or photo with your phone.

Six delicious dishes between two people plus four premium drinks for under £100 with service is excellent value in London. The service was friendly, helpful, and attentive, the food fresh and sensibly proportioned. And while the cavernous crypt in which we ate was pretty full on a Friday night, at no time did it feel overtly loud and claustrophobic. Definitely worth a visit, recommended.

Tried to scam both me and my friend to say that we hadn’t paid for our drinks when we had and we had the proof of our bank statements and witnesses. Was completely empty when we got in and I think they were trying to charge us double because how bad business was. Don’t waste your time. Rude and disrespectful.

Absolutely stunning food! We enjoyed everything we ordered and I can't wait to go back! 10/10

Hands down the best food in Brixton coming from a local .. the Tapas are honestly amazing - see my receipt for recommendations :)

Exceptional dining spot with outstanding staff, a cosy atmosphere, and quick service. The food is delicious, and the diverse drinks menu offers something for everyone. Highly recommend it, above 5 stars!

I recently visited for dinner and had a great time. The place has a really nice vibe, and we didn’t have to wait long at all. The food was super tasty, with lots of options to choose from. Plus, the drinks were awesome and well-made. Definitely a spot I’d recommend if you’re looking for a good meal and a good time!

Michelin star quality! Along with generous sharing portions. Amongst other things, we recommend the: black rice, gambas, spanish omelette, lamb cutlets, rice with chicken and chorizo, patatas bravas, and chicken thighs. Frankly, this is still the best Tapas I've ever eaten anywhere in the UK. I highly recommend.

The place is beautiful and the staff very friendly. But a Spanish restaurant is a whole other thing. When we arrived we were immediately told that they did not have “jamon iberico.” A Spanish restaurant without jamon iberico is like an Italian pizzeria without pizza. Passable food, very limited, sangria as well. It's like a group of students “rented” a church crypt and decided to make an unpretentious little restaurant out of it. Nice, fun for music and beer, but goodness, to eat Spanish you have to change venues.

Really enjoyed the tapas here, super interesting menu with a lot of variety compared to other tapas restaurants. The highlight dish was the steak with chimichurri - very tasty. Very large space as well so didn’t feel crammed at all. Also finished a dinner with reasonable bill for once !

Amazing service, drink are very good and the food have a lot of quality. I feel like been in spain

I’m completely love it I dont have words to describe the amazing was. Food, service and drink are very good.

Came back after many years, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was lovely, made even better by Jordi's warm, friendly and professional service. We are definitely coming back more often!

Oh My God! Please come here. Every dish was exceptional. We had the prawns, octopus, chicken thighs, lamb chops and steak and we found ourselves continuously looking at the menu for the next plate! Atmosphere and service was also top tier. Thank you to Bastian and Shervin for looking after us. Will definitely be back

Some of the best vegetarian Tapas I have had in a long time. Though a lot of the vegetable options were deep fried. I judge a tapas place on the tortilla and this tortilla was fresh and gooey with a crisp exterior which was lovely. We over ordered 6 dishes for 2 people, i would have said 4 dishes would have been enough for us. Service was lovely and attentive. We booked for a 7pm reservation on a Friday and we were only one of 3 seated tables. However by 7:30/45 the place was full. We paid £60 for 2 people and no alcohol. Though we could have ordered less for sure.

The staff were welcoming and friendly. The service was quick and the food was very tasty and high quality - especially the octopus and the chicken thighs. The setting in a church crypt is very atmospheric and unusual.

The place is amazing, the food was incredible, the sirloin, the croquetas and the baked goat cheese were fabulous, the music selection was also wonderful and our waiter Jordi made our night even better with his amazing, professional and really friendly service. So glad this place is around the corner from our flat we will definitely be coming back.

Amazing food and atmosphere. Jordi was the best waiter too! Defs coming back

Great options for vegans! Brill service and venue!

Food was amazing and service was even better. We love you Jordi 😘

Our server Jordi made sure we had a lovely evening! Were here for the first time and will definitely be back because of him! The food was lovely too- 5 stars all round!<3

Very nice visit and a great find. I suspect the business could do with promoting itself better as it is tucked out of the way under St Mathew's church and I new nothing about it despite being local for the last 3 years. I definitely will go again with friends and family. Good VFM.

Our favorite friday night spot. Super tasty dishes, reasonably priced and great service. We keep coming back!

Really nice food at an affordable price. Shervin served me and my partner and was impeccable, made us feel very welcome and we will definitely be looking to come back soon!

Very cool place, enjoyed the cocktails and drinks. Fun place to go

How about enjoying authentic Spanish dishes in the magical atmosphere of a church crypt??? ABSOLUTELY UNMISSABLE experience! Simply exceptional food, cocktails, wines and sangria that will blow your mind, very kind staff, impeccable and ready to advise you and pamper you at all times, INCREDIBLE atmosphere, with soft lights and candles that make the environment, with its exposed brick vaults really impressive, unmissable music and events every week… What do you want more??? I'm MADLY IN LOVE with Gremio De Brixton… a true GEM that you too will want to come back to 1,000 times! 🍽 FOOD and DRINKS: perfect balance between tradition, seasonality and contemporaneity 💡 ENVIRONMENT: very suggestive, in the crypt of a church where the soft lights make everything even more magical 💰 PRICE: medium 👨‍🍳 STAFF/SERVICE: all the staff are wonderful! Ask for Samia and Alexandra… a GUARANTEE OVERALL… you'll love it!

Incredible food, lovely staff and brilliant location.

PERFECT! We ate delicious and flavorful tapas, in a magnificent setting, with a very kind team, all in a Latin atmosphere. Go for it!

We reserved on a Saturday night last minute for a birthday party and we were not disappointed.The food portions were very satisfying and the quality was so much better than we expected. Yira was a wonderful waitress, attentive and helpful and made the evening run smoothly. I would highly recommend this place for large groups and celebrations. You will definitely get your money's worth and I am a huge fan of the fried goat's cheese and the Gremio sangría. Great all round!

Couldn't believe how low the bill was despite us having 2 jugs of sangria and enough tapas to fill us up! Such lovely welcoming staff and a gorgeous atmosphere. This place really should be more popular than it is right now. Recommend to all!!

Sergei and the team were fantastic!

Gremio is always a fab night out and Sergei is the best waiter

Delicious food made even better by the lovely service. Thank you very much, I couldn't recommend more. 🫶🏻

Lovely food. Great experience. Our server Shervin and Sergejs were amazing servers. 10/10

Great atmosphere and great food! Amazing service, we will definitely come back! Wish there where more stars I could give Lee. He was incredible and we would definitely be back for more!! Keep up the good work!

Excellent food and service from our waitress Yira, thank you for the service and thanks to the cooks for the good food.

Amazing food 100% recommend. Lee, Sergei and Shervin are an asset to the restaurant

Amazing food, vibey venue and super friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely be back!

Outstanding restaurant experience, the food was unreal, every dish we ordered was perfect. Absolutely rammed with flavour. Would highly recommend! Booked a table for 8pm on a Friday, great time as the tables started to fill up shortly after we arrived. Tables are spaced nicely so even if it’s packed you don’t feel like you’re squeezed in.

Food was amazing and affordable. Also great service with check ins to our table throughout the meal. Would go back!

Amazing place. Shervin was great!

Lovely decor and atmosphere. The service was friendly and prompt. The menu has all the classic tapas, plus some more modern twists on favourites. Everything we had was presented well and full of flavour. Drinks menu has a lovely selection of delicious cocktails and sangrias .

The team was really kind, fast service and marvellous food! I highly recommend!!!

Really recommend! We came on a Thursday when the dance classes were on which gives it such a nice vibe, plus the food is amazing and all the staff are incredible friendly (we were served by Yara) 😆

Food good but service veery slow

Gremios has been my local for more than 5 years now but after tonight I will never come here again. Had a table booked all week, the week before Christmas. I turn up to be told that the restaurant is closed. No phone call, no voicemail, no email to inform me in advance of this. The week before Christmas, so now we cannot get a table anywhere. Absolutely disgraceful and never will I return here after spoiling what was supposed to be a lovely evening. thank you for absolutely nothing.

Servers were exceptionally friendly and food was good and reasonably priced. whether they were short staffed we found the wait for food and drinks was longer than probably should be. If you don;t like noise this place would not be for you .

Nice tapas bar in the church's vaulted cellar. The selection of food and drinks is good, everything is tasty and good value for money. The service was remarkable, perfect pace and accommodating.

Having been to Gremio’s at 2am on a Saturday night, I was shocked to learn that the establishment doubled as a restaurant. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The tapas was delicious, reasonably priced and the atmosphere / service was great. Would particularly recommend the pork belly.

The bouncer Michelle was the best bouncer I've met in my 6years of living in London. She made sure I made my way back home safely, even taking the extra mile to ensure I get to my bus stop safely. All the bouncers were really good tonight, they were all friendly and I felt safe:)

Stunning restaurant and the food was incredible, service was great, good atmosphere, always worth a visit when in London

Pretty nice place with good tapas and a lovely atmosphere. Food tastes great. Good selection. Located in the underground place ;) so that is where the atmosphere comes from

This spot is in the basement of a church, so you'll be greeted by a group of homeless people sheltering at the front. As you enter, there's an open space for drinks with music blasting through the speakers, you won't be enjoying any conversation here and y personally didn't enjoy the music either. At the back of the place there is the restaurant, music still loud here, meaning everyone around is yelling to engage in any kind of conversation, the noisy environment is enhanced by the bricked vaulted ceiling making the acoustics rather unpleasant. The food is average, probably the worst tapas bar in London I've ever been and definitely unacceptable for Spanish standards, but we are not in Spain so we'll leave it at average. Drinks arrived when we were nearly finished with the food but that seemed to be an oddity that only happened to us. On a positive note, the place is not too expensive

Went there for the first time recently and had a great time. Food was fantastic, so well-priced and fab service!

We had a very poor experience here. The food was average quality with very small portion sizes, not the usual serving size for tapas. Some food arrived immediately after ordering and some arrived after a considerable wait, some didn’t arrive at all. We asked the wait staff many times about the food and they sort of shrugged and said it will come when it comes. Even getting the bill took forever and we had to request it several times. When the bill finally arrived it included several items that we had not received, these were then removed at our request. Overall a very underwhelming experience and I doubt we will be back.

Amazing bar, top class service from edward

The food is just terrible. Omelette tasted store bought, microwaved, overcooked and fishy. No olive oil on the soggy bread with tomato. Even the olives were terrible. Such a shame as the venue is great.

Stopped by for drinks on a Saturday early evening. Gorgeous venue with a lovely atmosphere and good music, will be back to try their tapas!

Cool basement vibes underneath a church within a stone's throw from Brixton station right next to the main road and surrounded by a small grassy park. Nice ambience for dancing and has a protected DJ booth but the ceilings are very low and may feel a tad claustrophobic.

I haven't been for food but just for when it turns into a club after - I'd been warned this place gets very hot and sweaty and this definitely was the case. Music was techno-y so got a bit samey after a short space of time.

It's not bad to drink and go out for a while. The place is worth seeing, but don't even think about ordering to eat, terribly expensive and poor quality.

Some dishes dialed in and not worth the price, eg chorizo in wine was way under cooked, how hard is that to get right .?! . Marisco arroz was nice though! Staff and drinks all good, great setting.

Fabulous tapas, authentic vibes

Great atmosphere, nice food, friendly staff

Door man was a legend! Really friendly and made us feel at home. Other member of staff was rude and made us feel like a nuisance because we accidentally bumped into a fan. Small blot on otherwise good night

Amazing atmosphere, lovely staff, fab cocktails and great choice of tapas. Defo go there again. It's a great night out.

The service here is terrible. It was super obvious that none of the staff wanted to be there or even liked each other. We were only given 2 drinks menus between 10 and our water was visibly annoyed that I hadn’t been able to look at the menu when she wanted to take our drinks order. I was made to feel bad for reminding our waitress about my drink after 10 minutes. Our waitress dropped one of our churros, didn’t acknowledge it at all and didn’t pick it up! We had to! Had to ask for water and when it was delivered it was the just slammed straight on the table with no words. Every time they bought a dish over there was nowhere to put it because they hadn’t cleared the table at any point. Didn’t get a single smile from any of the staff the whole meal. We came in as group and had preordered a combination of vegetarian and non vegetarian options so when we asked if they could explain what was and wasn’t vegetarian they became confused about what we had actually ordered… surely that’s the point of preordering. We felt so strongly that we took off the service charge something that as a group we have never done! The food was fine but was nothing special- mediocre at best and certainly not worth £30. The churros had clearly been sitting under the heat lamp and were not fresh and the chocolate sauce was way too thin. The cocktails and sangria was nice though as was the general ambience. There are better tapas places and we won’t be back.

Great Tapas, better than most with great portions and enough to get us full and satisfied. Service was polite and quick. Food and drink reasonably priced for a the area too

Good night, £10 entry, average London bar prices

Came here for a rare evening meal with my housemates. Service was very quick and staff were lovely. Food was delicious and the portions were perfect. A lovely spot for a weekday evening out, we will be returning to check out their weekend club nights.

Terrible place, staff are incredibly rude and careless about allergies. If you’re allergic and don’t fancy dying I’d recommend you go literally anywhere else.

Food was disappointing! Many tapas were microwave defrosted ! The octopus was unpleasantly chewy!

Love this place! Been a few times recently and both food and atmosphere is unbelievable

Great place for a birthday meal. Wonderful food and friendly, relaxed service.

Very cute place to eat some tapas. Sitting outside on a warm evening makes you forget you are in the middle of Brixton.

We spotted this place by chance on our way to the Electric Brixton and we noticed this cute place on the side of a church and we stopped by! We ordered 3 tapas and paid 19£. Tortillas, croquettes de jamon and salad and everything was absolutely delicious with the perfect afternoon summer vibes!

Such a shame that this previously fantastic place has gone down hill. The greeting we received was that we couldn't sit inside as they didn't have a licence for children (our youngest is 14). Not sure what this means but outside was where we had to go. The service was not good, they missed two of our ordered dishes and drinks (we asked a number of times) and the staff were rude and grumpy. Disappointing

Good venue, excellent vibes. Drinks a little too much, but ultimately fun.

This place I will never go back too Luckily I got my backpack 🎒 back. As the police would have come down. As it had all my controlled medication in there. As I've been in almost all places this is the worse one. I wouldn't give them a star

Great food - the arroz negate a particular favourite

Love this place! Been multiple times and the staff are always friendly and there’s a great atmosphere! Food is very well priced for London and is delicious! Would recommend!

Ian brrett is so nice!!! Found my bag when it went missing! Thank you all to security for being so nice

After several visits and excellent evenings spent at El Gremio, I can only recommend the festive atmosphere, the joyful cocktails and sangrias, and the tasty Spanish food on offer. The staff, especially Lionel, is very friendly and efficient. Lionel has given me some useful advice on the food. Thank you. I only have a small concern. I have been visiting this place many times over the past several years and a couple of items seem to have decreased in quality like the grilled octopus or the chorizo cooked in red wine which were not as good as they used to be. I sincerely hope this is only temporary as, as usual, I really had a great evening with my friend last Saturday.

Great tapas in the crypt of a church in Brixton

Really warm atmosphere and setting, excellent service and such delicious tapas! The cocktails and sangria variations were also really fresh and tasty.

Great experience and service from Jordi. Very nice food and price. would definitely recommend.

Tasha was ace - amazing tequila!

Wonderful and traditional tapas ♡ Tasha looked after us so well! Coukd not recommend this place enough, a must visit in Brixton ♡
