Ole Tapas Bar & Restaurant in Milton Keynes

Sick and tired with the cold and weather so decided to go on holiday for a couple of hours and caught a last minute flight to Ole Tapas I. Wolverton. Oh my what a treat with tapas served with elegance and skill. Why even bother getting your passport out when this is effectively on our doorstep. Highlights tonight Smoked Mayonnaise Tomato Concass thingy Squid ink rice Gambas Calamari Very lucky to have this on our doorstep.

Amazing food, staff & atmosphere. Couldn’t find a single fault! We got the seafood paella pre for preorder and it was honestly the nicest. The tapas was faultless too!

absolutely amazing food along with fabulous service … all the staff were friendly and attentive and nerea was amazing - will definitely be back !

Outstandingly good service, warm, attentive but cool too. Nerea was light hearted and casual in a way that made us feel like friends coming for dinner. She gave us great recommendations and checked back regularly that we were enjoying it. When the wine was served she also offered to replace this if we didn’t like it Very impressed.

Fantastic little place with dozens of fresh choices from vegetarian, seafood and meat tapas dishes. Very helpful and friendly host. Would highly recommend crispy chicken thighs, chorizo lollipops and the patatas bravas. 3 hours free parking 50 yards away on Wolverton Park Road. Micro distillery next door also.

Fantastic food, really friendly staff, great night. Muchas gracias! 😁

Been to this place a couple of years ago and fancied going again after a great experience last time. It did not dissappint. Lovely and welcoming staff with a good sense of humour, delicious food and an excellent Rioja Sour cocktail (recommend that) I will be back. Thank you x

We are the two Dave's (Dave and David) and this is our third time at Ole. We cant praise the staff enough with their knowledge of the food and wine. We always like to try something new, so we totally rely on the staff to explain and describe the individual dish before choosing. Makes it all the more enjoyable when you get to compare opinions. All the food on our night was fantastic, but we must mention the cheapest item on our bill, the Berenjena frita. Deep fried aubergine to die for! Yes , aubergine ! just wonderful and simple. Ole, thank you very much. GRACIAS.

Excellent freshly cooked food, unique recipes and friendly service. Highly recommended l!

We have just enjoyed our wedding anniversary here. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The food is super fresh and a real taste of Spanish tapas. The quality is the same everything we've been

Lovely place to come visit. Great for food intolerance.

Great food & service! 😊 staff were really nice and friendly and will definitely return.

Fantastic food and service, wanted to eat everything on the menu, would 100% return!

Hidden gem in wolverton! Amazing food and lovely service and a very nice ambiance. Highly recommend.

Been a few times to eat here. Really really nice tapas. Highly recommend.

Amazing experience beautiful food lovely staff. It's so nice to have found a good independent restaurant instead of wasting money on a chain restaurant .

Fantastic hidden gem. Who knew that the best tapas I've ever had would be from a restaurant in Wolverton? Exquisite food supported by impeccible hospitality. Definitely recommend this place to anyone and everyone. Thank you to the staff for such a brilliant evening. 👏

Great food, great atmosphere, great service! Enjoyed the food so much did not take any pictures! Definitely recommend.

2nd time visiting after being pleasantly surprised during first visit. Amazing selection of Tapas dishes. Friendly and helpful staff. Great selection of cocktails. Dishes are served when freshly prepared so may not arrive at the same time. My recommendation is the Ox Cheek- it melts perfectly! I recommend 3 dishes per person and book ahead of visiting to avoid being disappointed, especially if a larger group. Fantastic service. Will visit again :)

It is amazing food and amazing service, the staff are so fun and kind. It is quite loud but it is because it's lively! We love it here and keep coming back

Great vegan options, freshly prepared, would definitely come back. Nelson and Beatrice helped us to have a lovely evening

Excellent tapas, vibrant and buzzing environment and warm attentive service, a gem of an independent spot in MK! Appreciated the variety of vegan options.

Fantastic food, great service and vibes from the team :)

We decided to stop here for a mid-week lunch on the way home for a birthday treat, rather than eating at one of the chains in MK. Food was fantastic and service was fast. I particularly recommend the smoked salmon 👍. Would love to go back again, perhaps in the evening where it might be a bit busier and have more of an atmosphere. Thanks again.

We loved the creativity in the menu, the delicious dishes (every single one was good), the variety in drinks offering and the lovely staff.

ABSOLUTELY SUPERB FOOD SERVICES ABOVE EXCELLENT SERVICE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS LITTLE HEM IN MILTON KEYNES

Food and wine amazing. Friendly staff. Love It. Feels like being in Spain again all the authentic dishes. Book ahead if you want the paella.

Food and service excellent! Delicious and wholesome tapas with something for everyone loved the polpa and prawns yum 😋

One of MKs hidden gems. One of the best Spanish restaurants in the UK with passionate cooking by a top Spanish chef using the best ingredients in classic and new dishes. The waiting staff are great and do try their cracking cocktails.

A true gem of a restaurant selling authentic Spanish food cooked with fresh ingredients by a top Spanish chef who is passionate about creating classic and innovative new dishes. Some of the best Tapas we’ve tasted not just in UK but across Europe. Also a great selection of wines beers and cocktails. We cannot recommend this restaurant enough as a couple, who spend a lot of time in Spain and one of us is Spanish!

Good vegan options. Lovely service. Need to order the paella in advance.

This is our favourite restaurant in Milton Keynes without a shadow of a doubt! The food is always amazing and the staff are lovely. We've visited plenty of times now, both on date nights and for meals with family / friends and every single time we're blown away by the experience. The food is fresh, authentic, and truly gives you the taste of Spain. You can tell the owners and the staff are passionate about making your experience one to remember. If you're in the area then you must stop by. Even if you're not in the area, it's worth travelling for!

Amazing service and staff, very friendly place. Big shout out to Jeanette Stevens (perfect service) 10/10.

Extremely rude service. We had to leave before even order placement. Didn't try any food but noticed quite an unpleasant smell as well....

We had the most amazing Paella and Tarte de Santiago (not too sweet almond desert). We've been regulars at Ole sine it opened, usually having a variety of Tapas but this time were organised enough to order ahead for the Paella arriving just as the late lunch crowd was leaving and before tbe dinner rush started making it the ideal time for us. Great service and food at a reasonable price.

Lovely Tapas bar with great drink and food menus.

Olé Tapas Bar in Wolverton offers an exceptional dining experience that beautifully captures the essence of Spanish cuisine. From the moment we walked in, the vibrant atmosphere and warm, welcoming staff made us feel at home. The menu is diverse, featuring a delightful array of tapas that are both authentic and delicious. Each dish we tried was bursting with flavor and meticulously prepared. A highlight of my visit was the dessert presentation. As it happened to be my birthday, the staff surprised me by presenting my dessert with a "Happy Birthday" message beautifully written in chocolate on the slate plate with a little brownie and candle , adding a special touch to the evening. This thoughtful gesture, combined with the impeccable service, made our experience at Olé Tapas Bar truly memorable. I highly recommend this gem for anyone seeking a genuine taste of Spain in Milton Keynes/Wolverton

Thank you so much to Chris. Always goes above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Food was amazing.! We will be back again very soon. Jade & Ryan xx

The food and service were excellent and whilst we ate early there was still a good atmosphere, we will be back..

Not easy to find but so very worthwhile when you do. Great food, friendly service and good value.

I really hate leaving bad reviews, Just please don't waste your time going here if you like actual tapas because you're going to be severely dissapointed. That's if you even get served any food at all!!!

We really enjoyed our meals, excellent food and service. it's set in a strange place, in what looks like a converted locomotive shed but we enjoyed the quirkiness of it. Highly recommended 👌

Went for lunch today and I it was spot on! We have tried a few tapas places and none compare, the food was amazing and seasoned perfectly! really friendly and helpful staff had a lovely time! We Will be back soon!

Visited for Father’s day meal. Brilliant place, delicious food and excellent service. Thank you. xxx

Absolutely delicious tapas and friendly service. Great ambience. Will happily go again next time we're in the area!

Lovely place in a relatively unknown area so was surprised to find this. Food was delicious and service was lovely, especially as a more adult environment / food style, the lovely people were fabulous with our 2 year old and especially 6 year old birthday boy. Paella was really good, as were the croquettas in particular! Muchas gracias!!

Great all round! Fantastic service from everyone, great selection of tapas options. All the dishes we tried were awesome. Parking was immediately obvious but along the side of the building had plenty of spaces for up to 3 hours of free parking.

The best place to come for Tapas and Spanish food in Milton Keynes

Been here in 2022 and it was lovely, food was amazing, fresh and tasty.This year decided to go again...very very disappointing, tasteless food, a bit of a joke in comparison with last time, i'm guessing different cook who has no ideea how the spanish food tastes. Meatballs tasted like the one in tesco, mash potato made the powder one feel like it was a michelin star dish.Polpo was cut in 4 tiny pieces and seemed like the potato was the main course( for 17 quid was a disaster). I don't think i found a dish even remotely looking like two years ago.If you want to taste a real Spanish restaurant i'm sorry to disappoint you but look somewhere else and save your money.A really big disappointing experience unfortunately. They even spoiled the patattas bravas with that disgusting tomato sauce.Very poor menu as well. .

Went in for lunch everything was lovely.

Relaxing very clean food and service excellent

A well worth visiting Tapas bar somewhat hidden, based in Milton Keynes. The food is great & freshly prepared - definitely worth a visit & don't forget to try the Churrios!

I took a friend there as she’s never brung & as always, my friend & I had a great experience 😊

Pretty disappointing. I would not recommend this place for anyone Spanish, we ordered with the family out of nostalgia and wanting to have a paella on a Sunday and some tapas and it was very disappointing. The bravas were not good, they didn't give us hot sauce when we asked, the aioli looks more like mayonnaise with garlic than aioli, and the paella tasteless without any flavor. The only thing that was good were the croquettes. If you are English, I think it could work for you, but as a Spanish person, very sad. We won't be back.

Great little tapas bar round the corner from Wolverton High Street. Food came out very quickly and the service was great. Booked a table for 8 but got seated earlier as it wasn’t busy. Wide selection on the menu. We had 4-5 small plates to share plus bread and drinks. Reasonable prices. Enough to choose from and certain would go back to try more.

Great meal, lovely staff. Brought back happy memories from our recent spanish holiday, will certainly book again. Reasonably priced.

Fantastic food and great service

Just moved into the area and this really is an absolute gem of a restaurant. The food was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. The place was really busy but well staffed and staff were friendly and welcoming. Lovely vibe. I recommend booking! Will definitely be back

Great food and great service , definitely recommend

Little gem of a place. Authentic Spanish tapas

Amazing place, fabulous food, mostly everything is GF, which is fantastic. Totally recomend!

Gorgeous tapas. The mushrooms, artichokes and fish croquettes were particularly delicious 😋

Lovely food, great service and a nice place for authentic tapas.

4.5 stars - Really pleasant place with great, quick service. Lovely food and simple, clean decor. The only thing stopping it from being amazing would be the portions - small for the price. I know it’s tapas but the pulpo (£16) and chicken in honey portions were too small for the price. 3 hours free parking around the corner was good too.

Amazing amazing amazing food! If you’re looking for good spanish tapas this is definitely the place to be, service is quick and friendly, drinks are lovely and the place is clean and intimate. New favourite place to eat in MK area, will definitely be back❤️❤️

I’ve been here twice in the last few months and it never disappoints, the food is really great and the croquetas de marisco are some of the best croquetas I’ve ever had. I also love that they ask how you like your tortilla to be cooked, this is the first Spanish restaurant in the UK I’ve been to that have actually asked. It’s a bit pricier than going out for a standard sit down meal but 100% worth the money. Would definitely recommend this place!

Amazing food and great service! Definitely recommend.

Had a fantastic lunchtime here. Our server Foxy knew the menu and wine list inside out and was so energetic it was infectious. The food that followed was amazing. We ordered 12 plates and weren't disappointed with any. Personally I enjoyed plates arriving as they're cooked, I can't imagine waiting for all plates to come in one 'go', that's not really tapas for me, so nothing negative there. Welcoming staff, lovely food in a really nice environment. I will absolutely be coming back.

My new favourite restaurant since moving back to the area. To be fair it's been on my wishlist to go for a while and it didn't disappoint. Efficient, polite and not one bad dish. It will be my first choice when I eat out!

An excellent Tapas bar, one of the best.

Is a hidden gem in the area. Amazing food and a very cozy place for meet up! Definitely will try the paella dishes next time.

Came for a last minute Sunday anniversary meal, Our server Junette was excellent and even gave us hot chocolate on the house. Food exceeded expectations was delicious especially the octopus! Thank you for a lovely meal

We just love that place! Always great food! Always great experience! 👍 The best place to eat in Milton Keynes and the UK!!!

The ambience in this restaurant was amazing service was outstanding. But the meal we had was much to salty. They did offer to change it but had to wait for at least 30mins. Which was unsatisfactory.

Everything was amazing, great tapas.

Recent 40th birthday celebrations for a large party. Beatriz and Nerea did an excellent job of organising in advance and serving the evening. They missed nothing. In fact the whole front of house and kitchen were on point and very kind to the children. The food was superb and plentiful. As were the drinks. Service was a very high standard. Thank you to the entire team at Olé tapas bar for a great night.

Great food and friendly staff, we'll be back.

An absolute hidden gem. Truly authentic Spanish Tapas, served in a great atmosphere. Unfailingly great customer service and great value. We'll be back and highly recommend the restaurant.

Absolutely amazing food at a reasonable price. The waiting staff were very attentive, and it showed that they were really enjoying their job.

Best Tapas in Milton Keynes. Friendly service. Great quality food.

The restaurant's staff was very helpful and kind. Food was either discreet at best or downright bad in taste. Little resemblance to real spanish food or original tapas. For the quality of the food served and the size of the portions (tiny), this restaurant is way too much expensive. Me and the group that I went with left very dissatisfied. I wouldn't recommend it at all, and I would never go back. Very disappointing to see such a representation of Mediterranean food, coming from our mixed Mediterranean group of people. Save your money.

Great food, great service and the mocktails are amazing 10/10

A fantastic selection of tapas; I could've easily ordered the whole menu! It's very hidden away but well worth seeking out. I aim to return to sample the paella which needs to be ordered a day in advance.

First visit today. Fantastic all round. Highly recommend local gem, reasonably priced, would eat here over all the chains in central Mk.

Great tapas and great and friendly service.

Absolutely loved it,the food was unbelievably good,the drink choices were brilliant as someone who is teetotal. Service was amazing Highly recommend we will definitely be back 👍

I have travelled the world in pursuit of good food and this has made it into my list of top ten places. Every tapas invites your taste buds on a different journey wanting more and more. Not your average flavours. Culinary magic!

For our 20 year wedding anniversary, my wife and I wanted to enjoy the best food, but also wanted to be able to stay at home and enjoy plenty of wine. I contacted the team at Ole Tapas well in advance, and their communications were truly excellent, and made sure that my large takeaway order was ready on time for pickup on our special day. They could not have been nicer to deal with, and everything went perfecfly. Most importantly, the food was excellent in every respect - we sampled a wide range of the tapas on offer and we can say that the chef and team fully deserve the accolade of No.1 restaurant in MK. Truly authentic and delicious. Thank you again Nerea and Team for making our day perfect!

I dont know of they had a bad day, but the food wasnt as good as the price suggests. Great service nice people and environment.

Imposible to go on car beacose it's not car park at all in all surrandings, there are all private car park with cameras, then this put me off, and never go again.

Just amazing! Had the seafood paella and it was absolutely awesome! Staff were friendly and the restaurant was spotless.

Really lovely interior with a great atmosphere, it was almost full so recommend booking. Started with the charcuterie board which was really nice, but it did feel a bit lacking with only 2 small slices of bread and really thin bits of manchego cheese. The chorizo balls was a similar story, wish there was more as they were lovely. The pork belly bites were expensive but so delicious, definitely my favourite part of the meal!

This place is a little hidden away but absolutely worth the effort. The food was fantastic and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. There is free parking just round the corner. This is highly recommended

Me and my mum had lunch for my birthday a couple of weeks ago and every thing was amazing such a lovely place the food was fantastic, and the staff are an absolute pleasure very lovely welcoming people, a all round amazing restaurant can't wait to visit again 😊

Delicious home cooked Tapas, friendly, helpful,attentive staff. How come it’s only 4.7/5. 😊

Quieres comida auténtica? You want authentic Spanish food? Tienes que venir aquí. El servicio era muy bien and the food is to die for. 10/10. Cinco estrellas.

Great food and service. Will visit again

A beautiful little restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. Staff are so friendly and attentive and the food was perfect...all of it! As were the cocktails!

Had a great family meal here, gluten intolerance completely catered for. Fabulous tasty food, great service, and amazing atmosphere. We will be back.

Another fantastic meal. Food and service were excellent.
