Tipi Tapa in Wiltshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Had read some good reviews before dining here. The chef patron was quite cocky and I was expecting so much more. Padron Peppers seeped in oil, tasteless tomatoes with the Anchoas Con Tomate (if you going to stick an anchovy on a tomato, the tomato has to be fruity and succulent, not like wet and tasteless like cardboard). Opted for Patatas La Terrazza, but these were undercooked and soft, nowhere the consistency of good Patatas. Do I know what I am talking about… Yes, I do. I learnt to cook tapas dishes in Seville and Barcelona. To be honest, if the chef spent less time on banter in the open kitchen (within easy earshot of paying guests) and more time on tasting and refining the food, I’m sure it could be so much better. Management comped the Anchoas Con Tomate and Patatas La Terrazza from the bill after I mentioned the disappointment. Would I eat here again - probably not.

I just love this restaurant. Feel so grateful to have it in Marlborogh. Truly fresh authentic Spanish Tapas.. it’s honestly completely delicious. The squid is divine the Gambas as good as in Spain and I can go on and on! (Oh and I have to mention the Churros.. the best.. l have to stop myself popping in every day! no exaggeration! ) The restaurant decor is not terribly exciting and so it’s easy to walk in and wonder if it’s going to be ok.. but just like the Tapas bars in Spain.. you’re there for the food!

This is a great little spot. The food is incredible - cooked with real care and passion. Authentically Spanish in style, and packed with flavour. The chef/owner really knows his stuff and really cares about the provenance of his food. The atmosphere is welcoming and lively (but not too lively) and the service was exceptional. We'll be back and would highly recommend it to anyone in the Marlborough area.

Dined on 29th March. David and his crack Anglo Spanish brigade, serve the best tapas outside Spain, I’ve ever eaten. A visit is a must.

Lovely location. Excellent service. Wonderful food. Perfect atmosphere and decor.. Fantastic staff very welcoming and knowledgeable. Will definitely be coming back.

The first of many visits...delicious food and great choice on offer, lovey atmosphere and a fantastic team. Save yourself a flight to Spain and head to Tipi Tapa.

This restaurant was closed for several weeks in February through to March for renovation and some electrical works, and has now reopened as LA TERRAZA (MARLBOROUGH) We visited on its reopening night to find that it was already lively with a Flamenco Guitarist playing to add to the already welcoming atmosphere. We were sat in the upstairs seating area and were given a complimentary glass of white wine [which was light and fruity and very palatable] whereupon our orders were taken. We elected for 5 dishes including the potato bravas, the meatballs, prawns and calamari and the mushroom dish. All the dishes were brought promptly and hot, but still allowing time between dishes to relax and enjoy the delicious flavours. Its relaxed and friendly atmosphere, with attentive and charming staff making an evening feel that little bit more special. This is quality food at a very reasonable price, with flavour combinations that will tempt you back. Looking forward to better weather [to eat outside on the decked area] and explore more of the menu.

Lovely atmosphere. Great service. Outstanding food. Came here with friends and we loved it. The variety of food is superb and brilliantly cooked and presented.

Excellent .. New Year outing ..4 friends. From the moment we entered the service was friendly and excellent. Menu was varied and our waitress advice and help was brilliant. My wife is a coeliac and the amount of food available was very good. We all had a varied amount of tapas and empty plates proved the food was very good.. Price was very reasonable for the high standard of food. Highly recommend Tapi Tapas.. and definitely return.. Thank You..

It is a must go to. As a couple we visit at least once a month and it is our favourite place to lunch. The sangria is out of this world, the food is fresh and delicious. The staff are lovely, helpful and knowledgeable about what they serve. We took our teenage daughter and she thought it was amazing. Even the dog loved it here. Iv just convinced myself to go back today.

Tasty and fresh food with a good atmosphere. Broad menu with authentic dishes. Friendly and considerate staff. Highly recommended.

Amazing family meal for a birthday!! David the chef was really friendly and chatted about the food, it’s source and suggested a beautiful tuna on the special. The staff are so friendly and welcoming on and try the crime brûlée…We will definitely be back asap, thank you!

Fantastic flavors, lovely ambience in the downstairs part . Friendly and a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon after shopping

What a real treat this place was. We met up with friends (half way-ish between Oxford and Bridport) while family stayed at Savernake Forest. We were made very welcome on arrival and the service continued to be friendly, attentive, but not intrusive. They were even lovely to our family who spotted us and invaded! We started with some excellent olives and roasted almonds and then shared a selection of dishes. The vegetable paella was delicious as was the Tortilla Espanõla, with a mixed salad and padron peppers. As well we enjoyed some tasty calamares, crispy battered prawns, chicken and chorizo skewers and Iberico Bellota ham. Every mouthful of each dish was savoured and pronounced delicious. Churros and chocolate made a great finish to the meal. We all agreed that we would enjoy a repeat performance! Great value for money and easy to book a table online. We have no hesitation in recommending Tipi Tapa (only wish we lived nearer!!)

5 of us chose Tipi Tapa for lunch. The staff were so friendly. We were offered a quiet table upstairs, and were not rushed to make our choices. The food was great. I chose pil-pil prawns and calamari, both were delicious. The pil-pil came with bread to soak up the garlicky, chilli sauce. I made sure there was no sauce left. We all shared a couple of churros. All in all, a great place to eat at a reasonable price. I will definitely be returning - soon I hope!

Went for Sunday lunch with my wife who has broken her heal so is in a wheel chair, as soon as we arrived I asked if it was ok if we came in and if they could accommodate us. Luke who looked after us was...

We had a super meal here recently. Fabulous food. Great and very friendly service. The lobster pil pil was amazing!

Popped in for an unplanned lunch as a family of four (2 x smallls). We’ve been several times but felt compelled to give a review this time. Food was excellent, great flavours and clearly skilfully prepared. Kudos to the chefs. Service was on point, lovely,...

What a find! Its so rare to find a good Tapa restaurant in the UK........... This IS the one! I have a home is Spain, where great Tapa is available on every corner. Thank goodness I've found Tipi Tapa for when I'm in the UK....

On a balmy late summer evening you really could have been abroad. Lovely setting on the outside balcony complete with fairy lights added to the ambiance. The food was excellent, each dish lovely in its own right. We had 2 small starters & 5 tapas...

Amazing authentic Spanish tapas paired with a great atmosphere. We ordered a few dishes at a time as recommended by our lovely waitress Abi. The food came out as it was ready, super delicious and we can’t wait to return. The other waitress Eleanor was...

My friends and I love tapas so thought we needed to check out this place. The food was delicious and service was brilliant. Compared to La Bobina in Marlborough, this place was definitely better value for money with much bigger food portions. Maybe La Bobina...

Lovely little place. Great food and friendly staff. Would recommend this place if you are in the area!

I am not local to Marlborough but i was close recently so i thought i would give Tipi Tapa another go as i was there earlier in this year. Its really very good. Everything is cooked fresh, the salads and salsas are super fresh and...

Wow! What a gem of a place. Delicious food. Fab staff. Thank you Eleanor and Luke for your help and such friendly service. Every mouthful a treat. Thank you 😊

Very welcoming and friendly staff. Great food and atmosphere. Tucked away off the High Street. Alas the rain prevented pavement eating which would have been nice. We had the specials, which were.

An amazing evening great food and services!!! Our waitress Abi did an excellent job!! Will recommend

I can't begin to describe this lunch... authentic..no... value for money...no... experience.. awful. We paid £6.80 for a mixed salad... Lettuce leaves half a tomato and some Sweetcorn... when the waitress was asked of this was all you got for 6.80 she thought it was...

I went for an early dinner and as a solo traveller, one can feel a but uncomfortable... I needn't have worried, I was made very welcome by the lovely staff and treated marvellously during my too brief stay. I hit the tapas menu, but also...

The worst meal my friends and I have ever had was in May 2023 at Tipi Tapa Restaurant in Marlborough, Wiltshire. When this restaurant first opened my 3 friends and I had a wonderful dinner there. We therefore decided to return for dinner some months...

What a find. A fabulous little independent Spanish restaurant. A buzzy vibe even on a Tuesday lunchtime and the food couldn't have been better. The owner was the perfect host and incredibly knowledgeable and helpful when it came to navigating the menu. Each Tapas dish...

Went for pre cinema dinner. The service, good and atmosphere were great. The staff were friendly, engaging and fun. We will be back soon. Great experience and wholly recommended.

Excellent quality, and sometimes inventive, tapas. Ingredients imported from Spain (where the head chef/owner grew up and learned his cooking) and it shows (or should that be "tastes"?). Set in a quiet no-through street in sight of the high street. Beautiful building for indoor seating...

We’ve not been before and started with a sangria as it’s Spanish. I can honestly say it’s the worst I’ve ever tasted. Just tasted like fizzy water which for £24 a jug is a rip off. Apparently there’s only one glass of red wine in...

Just dropped in for a late evening drink. Charming service and a quiet lovely leaf covered outside terrace was just what we wanted.

Loved our meal at Tipi Tapa on the weekend, the service was excellent, the portion sizes were really good and we loved the cocktails. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Marlborough.

What a great find to end a week walking to Wiltshire on the ridgeway. The staff were a close to perfect as possible and the food was simply delicious. Of particular note were the yellow beans and lardons special and the tomato toast starter. A...

Cute little place just off the high street. Tiny kitchen which you can see into and the chef was turning out food like a pro!! Service was nice. You do need to book. We ordered food for 4 people and it was all delicious and...

The evening started so well. Great wine list, excellent range of tapas and friendly staff. Problem came when we came to order dessert and wanted a cheese board as we finished our wine which would have been perfect. Told the ‘kitchen was closed’ and they...

I’ve been here a few times with family and friends and have to say not been disappointed on every occasion. Service welcoming and helpful and the food is always good, always look and ask about the specials. Will be back soon

Firstly, we found this restaurant by accident having parked nearby for our weekend stay. It looked unassuming so we checked the reviews and felt it was one to try. The staff were pleasant, fun and attentive. They recommended that we have 2/3 dishes each and...

The best experience I have had from a Tapas bar in England. Good and freindly service; a good variety of menu options; food well preparred and served. I left feeling I had eaten well and had not been ripped off. We will be back, new...

We went to this restaurant last evening and had a really super evening. I am about to book some more dates. The house red and white was perfect for tapas. Really enjoyed the different dishes. Favourite dishes for us were pill pill prawns. Calamari. Such...

Superb! Awesome food, ambience and the food was absolutely amazing! Second visit and definitely will not be the last! If you’re in Marlborough, you can’t miss this eatery!

I had my third visit here tonight and as usual, the food, drinks , service and ambience were spot on. We celebrated my daughter’s 18th here last month (table of 10), and the service was exceptional. I highly recommended this place for any occasion
