Tapaz Restaurant in Bolton

I met a couple of friends here last night (my first visit). The food was absolutely amazing. The Patatas bravas were the best I have ever had - even in Spain. In fact, everything was superbly cooked. The staff were very friendly and attentive and I will definitely be back - and will highly recommend to people.

Love this place I've been many many times. I love the food. Never had a bad meal. I've even joked about marrying the chef. This place is great for birthdays, date nights or even a random meal. The restaurant and toilets are always clean and tidy. The staff are lovely and attentative. There isn't anything on this menu both drinks and food that I wouldn't recommend

Lovely food and good price with the lunch deal! Staff really friendly too

The food was amazing. Service was really good. Restaurant was nice and clean. You need to book in advance as they are always fully booked, with good reason. Photos are of the garlic bread starter. Calamari, lamb kebabs, garlic prawns, chicken wings, ribs, chorizo and cheese and Brie. All freshly cooked, tastes amazing. 5 star review. I will definitely be back.

Excellent restaurant with delicious food for our lunch time visit…….compliments to Chef!! Extremely friendly staff and a great atmosphere. We have been several times before and will definitely be returning again. Very highly recommended.

Lovely service staff/surroundings let down by the wierd staring chef (portly, greasy bloke with curly hair) who wouldn't take his eyes of my partner and my friends 12 year old daughter.. We even ended up moving seats as he was making them feel uncomfortable, the food was generally good but left us a little upset inside the day after, shame could be a good little place that!

Great spot in Bolton. Friendly and attentive. Plenty of vegan options

A lunchtime visit that was simply superb! Fantastic service, super food, can't praise them enough!

We really enjoyed our lunchtime visit to this Tapas restaurant in the centre of Bolton. We enjoyed all of our dishes. We particularly liked the cod cakes. The staff were very nice. We will definitely visit again in the next time we are in Bolton.

Great restaurant, staff friendly and the food is amazing. Portions are great so be careful you don't order too much (like we always do).

Amazing food. Really lovely and engaging staff. Chef that takes an obvious pride in everything that leaves the kitchen.

Food was delicious service excellent lovely evening

Great restaurant. We had tapas everything came out together and hot. Big portions and very tasty. Good price considering how much you get! Will definitely be back.

What a luvly place for lunch. The ambience, service and food was excellent. We will be returning for an evening meal and would highly recommend 👌

Great food, good selection of Tapas service was excellent. I would certainly recommend and go again

After not finding a good tapas place in Barcelona, stumbled across this place in Bolton! We were passing through, so decided to give it a try! So glad we did... food was amazing! We choose almost all the GF items on the menu to share between four of us, and everything was good. Especially liked the ribs, patatas bravas, stuffed peppers and the king prawns. Definitely a good find.

Visited here as a group of 3 and we were all really impressed. Huge selection of food, all of which was delicious. The staff are all really friendly and welcoming too. Will 100% be returning asap!

Had a lovely meal on 5th July. One of my favourite places to eat! I won their Valentines hamper in February but had not been able to collect the yummy pastel de natas. The lovely serving team remembered and brought them to us after the meal! Thank you xx

Amazing food and very nice atmosphere in the restaurant. Cocktails were very good and reasonable price. The service was good and staff very friendly.

We went here last Friday night. Amazing food and great service. Lovely restaurant that should have been full of diners for a weekend. Will definitely be going again before it's another restaurant that closes in Bolton! Get there whilst you can!

Food is delicious and cheap！ But waiting time is too long…

Lovely restaurant, service was great and the food is really good. Loads of tapas to choose from and share. Spoilt for choice. This was not my first visit and have never been disappointed!

Great service and food was spot on. Took my sister for her 50th Birthday and she said it made her feel not a day over 30. That might be false advertising but hey, it's still good.

The restaurant had a good atmosphere, despite it being a Tuesday evening.. a few other tables in as well... the food was good, drinks are reasonably priced, but the service was fantastic.. the young man simply couldn't do enough, helpful without being overbearing, prompt and polite, yet chatty a great balance.. he works very hard indeed.. I do hope he enjoyed his birthday x

Very good quality in terms of taste, presentation and service. Remember that tapas portions will normally be smaller than an equivalent main course.

Such a lovely place, food was great, service was lovely not too expensive for a date night

Lovely food, I can't have onions, not a problem, cooked from scratch, we don't live near, but will definitely be back, I had paella, my husband had tapas, staff were lovely, reasonably priced

Really disappointed I have been a few times before and loved it but this times wasn't a pleasant experience at all. We were seated and had drinks order taken fairly quick but then waited 30 mins to have our food order taken we asked someone if we could order then it was probably another 15 minutes after that. Someone who was seated after us had their order taken before us. I said excuse me to another lady who was taking orders and she came over I said we haven't order she said I know your next really rudely. Then when she finally come over she stood at the side of us no apology and just said yes. If we weren't so hungry and already waited so long we would have. No atmosphere, rude staff not one smile was cracked. I could understand if they were rushed off their feet, they weren't! Won't be going back.

First time I have been here. It was a weekday so not as busy. Had excellent service from staff who were very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was was just right as went with a friend for a well deserved catch-up so was able to talk and hear. The food choices were plenty and something for everyone and prices very reasonable, made good use of the wine and speciality coffee. We were not rushed and spent a very pleasant afternoon there. Would definitely recommend a visit here.

Food was very nice however 50% of the food we ordered wasn't available and then the plates, with food still on them, were removed while we were still eating. Very disappointing!

Excellent tapas and really tasty house red wine. Very good staff.

First Class Restaurant on Bradshawgate in Bolton. Excellent Food at a reasonable price. Generous Portions. Would recommend this place unreservedly.

Always excellent food, great house wine and very friendly staff.

I can’t believe that I’ve never been to this restaurant before as I live in Bolton! It is quite simply the best place I have eaten for a long, long time. The food was exceptional - we had tapas and every dish was wonderful. The waitresses were friendly, attentive and very ‘smiley’ which makes a big difference to the atmosphere and to your enjoyment - they really want you to have a good experience. The dishes were served piping hot and all together. The house wine was good and reasonably priced too. The chefs can be seen preparing the dishes - everything runs smoothly and professionally. I am really impressed - we will definitely be making this a regular place to eat. Thank you so much for a lovely evening.

The Food was nice and hottest waitress

The Tapaz was delicious. I would recommend a visit here. The service was very good.

What an amazing night. Celebrated a birthday here and we're treated so well. All the staff were friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Daniella was amazing. The food was fantastic, there were over 20 of us and we all received our food together. We also enjoyed a few cocktails, they were made fresh and tasted so good. Diogo, the owner, kept checking in on us ensuring the night was going well, and it was. Thank you to all the staff for making a special birthday even more special!! See you again soon!!

The food tastied delicious and the staff were fantastic. They managed to find us a table although we hadn't booked and is was very busy.

Ate here this evening after the cinema. Pleasant surroundings, tasty food and great service. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and considered the prices very reasonable. Plan to visit again soon.

Came here last Saturday without a reservation and chanced it. The food and service was absolutely incredible! I will so be back and would definitely recommend anyone to try it at least once 🤤

Definitely recommend this restaurant. Food service and staff are fantastic

Been here a few times, excellent tapas every time. Generous portions. Really good service will go again. Lunch time offers are good deals

Deliveroo driver avoid this restaurant as they will make you wait longer and you will get a ticket so it’s not worth for you!

Only a five minute walk from the Octagon, e really enjoyed this place. Particularly enjoyed the minted lamb skewer and the patatas pobres. House red wine was very pleasant, the prices were very reasonable and the Portugese/Spannish waiter was attentive and took time to chat whenever asked questions. One menu suggestion: It would be nice if the varied tapas menu also included dishes with frijoles y/o garbanzos.

Absolutely delicious, as good as eating in the restaurant

Great bar, good position with nice and helpful staff.

Lovely Tapas lunch, everything hot and fresh. Staff attentive and friendly.

Excellent restaurant/Tapas bar. Lovely, friendly staff with great service at decent prices. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere, really attentive staff and fabulous food. A little gem in Bolton and very well definitely be back. Fabulous

Came in here last night for a couple of drinks with friends. Very friendly staff, so welcoming and attentive.

Absolutely stunning, from start to finish! We were we welcomed into a comfortable and warm atmosphere with contemporary music. Service was delayed but this was not an issue as we were accommodated and kept up to date by Daniella who took our impromptu arrival without booking. The food was excellently presented, hot and a world of flavour! The portions were more than adequate with a paella being suitable for 2 or 3 if sharing alongside the wide selection of tapas available. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a quiet evening with family and friends.

Went with family and friends for a catch up - as always, a great atmosphere, absolutely delicious and fresh food and super service! We enjoyed every single dish - thank you!

We waited 25 minutes till a staff member brought us our drinks and my partners drink was wrong. He ordered a Jd and he got ammereto. We ordered the £25 tapas deal which included bread for starter, three tapas dishes and desert. The bread tasted awful and at the end we never got the desert menu but we was glad as we wanted to leave as we hated the food and experience. When we ordered the food after around 15 minutes a family of around 10 came in and they got all there food before us and then another family of 4 came in and they got all there food before us. When our food finally came I got given only one of my tapas dishes and I had to wait 15 minutes to receive my 2 dishes. My partner ordered wings and the staff said there was only 2 wings left and the portion came in 6’s. It was only 8pm so they shouldn’t have ran out of wings. We decided to leave and the bill came to £92 and we gave £95 and the staff didn’t bring the £3 change over. The service was terrible and the food was awful. This is shocking especially with it being new year Eve and we both paid a £10 ticket fee on top of the night. We spend £115 for the worst night ever!

Great tasting authentic Spanish food

We attended between Christmas and new Year before a show at the Octagon Theatre. For this reason it was a little quiet in the resturant with only 3 groups present at the lunchtime period. The decor and seating were excellent and we received a warm welcome on arrival. The service throughout was 1st class and we thoroughly enjoyed our food choices particularly the ribs. We ordered from the lunchtime menu which was very good value for money and overall our experience was first class. We would thoroughly recommend this restaurant. Thank you to all the staff for a very enjoyable visit.

Was decent enough tapas, the paella was very expensive for what you get at £17:99 for which is essentially rice and a bit of meat. Not much sauce on the bravas but ok. Wouldn’t do again at that price tbh.

Great local restaurant serving fresh little Mediterranean dishes. The Restaurant is clean and modern Service was friendly and efficient The food was we had was very good some not genuine authentic and the desserts are shop bought and aren't very good, ok for kids and we only had dew to a deal.

Lovely food and amazing service. We were the only party in there, but there was 16 of us and handled it perfectly. All food was hot when it was served and would definitely recommend.

First class food! No wonder you have to book in advance. We turned up 2 weeks before our visit, only to be told there was no tables available. Booked in advance for our second visit - we were not disappointed. Would definitely visit again 👍🏻

Excellent food. Pleasant atmosphere and professional service. 😊 Thanks

The order was mixed up I received the wrong item and the starters where for sharing with 2 people which is unhygienic as you had to share a dip. The reply from the manager when I asked about this was " that's how it is and it has been for the past 4 years !" This attitude is totally unacceptable. The table wasn't even ready when we arrived and we had to wait 15 minutes to be seated. I will not return. I do not recommend this restaurant.

Came on time, food was hot and extra tasty! Happy customer here!!

Nice food, friendly staff, comfortable surroundings. Have been a few times as working in area, window tables a little chilly as large bay glassed windows and in December evenings you can feel a coolness to the area. I personally don't like tomatoes or olives and despite my frequent requests omit them from the salad dishes, they still arrive with them on. I know it's no hassle to pick them out myself but why put them on in the first place? They're obviously placed ontop of the salad leaves and not mixed in. Just a small gripe but would recommend this place for food.

Horrible customer service. First they can’t find a table for us, then we was waiting 20 min to get our food ordered and then were told that need to wait another 40 min for food to arrive. Not what you expecting for a nice Saturday evening

What a great find! I always enjoy a tapas lunch, but more and more restaurants are only opening for evening dining. Tapaz is an exception. Warm welcome, great selection of dishes at competitive prices, well priced wines, warm and friendly staff, accomplished chefs. So good, I'm back again on Sunday!

Gem of a place in Bolton. We went for Saturday Lunch and had the Lunch special. This was ANY 3 Tapas items for £14.95. The servings are plentiful and we ordered 6 different ones and they were all delicious. Really pleased as often it’s a reduced menu choice for lunch specials but not here. The staff were lovely and the restaurant is a really nice place. Would definitely recommend And can’t wait to go again and try the other dishes on the menu… thank you.. a lovely lunch with my mum.

Absolute gem of a place. The 6 dishes we had were all super. Hot and fresh food. The staff were very good as well. Nice selection of music on the sound system. Perfect

Amazing food , fantastic Place !! I have had an amazing experience. Professional, helpful , friendly and great recommendations by Diogo. The food was delicious!!! Compliments to the chef : I have really enjoyed Octopus Salad and Cola chicken wings, a must ones ! Cannot wait to come back with my friends,

Amazing Food and Service, great Menu and Wine. we had Chicken Liver Pate, meatballs Goats Cheese, Chorizo in garlic and Lamb Skewers with a Lovely Bottle of Red , the Service was just Brilliant by a Young Lady who's name i did not get but she was from Portugal Thank You, Defiantly if you are in Bolton its a Must Visit, we will Certainly be Back

Living in the Mediterranean, it was a delightful surprise to find such a high quality Tapas restaurant right in the middle of Bolton. Portions were good, quality of food excellent and service top. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys great Tapas.

So lovely and accommodating! We booked a table for four at 8.45pm but couldn't get there until late. My son called to explain, the owner was lovely saying not to panic as they are open until 10pm. Then we couldn't find anywhere to park. Eventually we got there at 9.40pm and ordered five minutes later. We ordered 12 dishes and all were really fresh, delicious, and not a single tem was left. The waitress was fabulous, so attentive and hadxa lovely calmness about her demeanor. We drove from St Helens to try this restaurant and we are so glad we did. Many thanks to Tapaz staff for a wonderful meal!

Lovely tapas and the prosecco sangria was yum. We tried the Patatas bravas, pollo empanado (chicken with a mango chill jam - was so good!). Baked Camembert was a fantastic choice too. Also would really recommend the button mushrooms with blue cheese vegan sauce…I’m not even vegan and these hit the spot. We just went for lunch but I’d defo go back for a dinner time meal.

This was our first visit since July and quickly realised what we had missed. We were welcomed by Diago who took us to our usual table 14 near the kitchen where we chatted to Kenny the chef who produces the amazing Tapaz dishes. We ordered...

Delicious food. Great service. Relaxed atmosphere.

Really excellent and reasonably priced . Shame about the parking, and the rundown state of Bradshawgate generally. But the food and staff were great. We've returned many times and never regretted a visit..

Went here for birthday meal, food Amazing as always. Staff are friendly as can be, would say gin a little expensive here but that wouldn't stop me from going.

Good food. Not much atmosphere as was Thursday night

I had BBQ ribs, meatballs, potato bravas. Excellent food, good portions and the service was the best. Thank you!

Absolutely delicious food. The chicken wings in the cola glaze were just heaven! Arrived quickly and still hot. 10 out of 10!

Popped in for lunch just as it opened so it wasn't busy. The waiter was friendly and took our orders quickly. The wait for the food seemed long however it is freshly cooked and came out nicely presented. The 3 tapas dishes were tasty and filling. Good value for money.

We had the lunchtime special and was very impressed. Can't believe I've never been here before, definitely a new place to lunch with friends and family.

My partner booked here for a pre-theatre birthday treat and it was gorgeous. The service was excellent and the food was excellent. I’m vegan and so tapas is not my go to as there’s only so much patatas bravas I can eat. You should go...

Wonderful food, great staff. Really lovely evening, thank you.

Fabulous Food , Excellent Service , Super Friendly Staff , Great Value and a lovely Ambience. 8 of us ate here last Saturday evening and all were impressed. The Food is the nicest Tapas i have had anywhere and we were well looked after by...

Fantastic place, best meal we've had in years.

Service and staff are great but the food was really not good. Things were overcooked and the taste was just not great apart from the goats cheese salad, which really isn't hard to get right. The portion sizes are large but it's not good having a large portion of something that doesn't taste good. The price of half a coke was £2.75 a total rip off and £5.50 a pint of beer. Won't be returning and won't be recommending.

Excellent food would go again and highly recommend they do lovely cocktails aswell as food and the waitress was also lovely who served us nice little spot in Bolton town centre it cost us nearly 80 for what we had and one drink each but we did go on a Saturday they have offers on in the week so if you didn't want to pay as much but want lovely food then I would recommend going on a week day . I did think it was worth the price we paid to be honest I didn't have one complaint

One of the best Tapas place up north! This is our 2nd time here :)

Lovely tapas, very generous portions. Attentive staff, reasonable prices. I will definitely be going for lunch again.

Visiting the area and decided to eat here after reading the great reviews. We were not disappointed, the restaurant is beautiful, food was amazing and the service was very good. Highly recommend and will definitely be back when visiting the area again.

Love this place! Went recently with a bunch of friends for my son's birthday as we'd been once before and was amazing. Beautiful restaurant, really tasty food and staff are warm, friendly and approachable. Can't wait to go again.

My apologies for the review....I was mistaken it was a different tapas restaurant I had the problen with....I have been to your restaurant many times and the service and food have always been excellent

Just came back and all I can say is Waw this place is defo going to take off just what Bolton needed the food woz amazing I’ve dined at some fine dining restaurants all over the country and this food woz faultless ! Can’t wait to return the sea bass woz the best I’ve ever had

First visit. The food is fantastic! Presentation 5* Service could have been a bit better, has to catch the attention of the staff a few times, but wouldn't put me off going again.

Very nice place to eat and drink at. Food and drinks were delicious.

Well good portion for tapas. Welcome my furry kids also🤩

Big disappointment after reading rave reviews. Service very slow despite only 2 other people in the place. 2 Tapas dishes took over an hour to arrive. Food quality good, but every dish was tasteless and lacking ! Well presented place, prices very reasonable but wouldn't...

Amazing place! I went a few weeks ago with my girls and some friends to the Brazilian night, and it was amazing. The food is always unbelievable here, tasty and fresh. Definitely going back soon.

Fabulous food me and Summer loved it and thanks to Diogo for the advice on the menu choice. We are definitely coming back 🥰

Good food. Excellent service. Atmosphere is nice.
