La Farola Cafe

My wife and I love La Farola and have had many special moments there including informal lunches, romantic dinners and a brunch with friends after my hen night! For her birthday in June, we had a takeaway with a bottle of delicious wine they gifted us after I took a trip to pick up the food - they offered to deliver but we now live miles away! We have recently enjoyed mulled wine and pastries from the Upper Street front door when eating in is not an option. We miss the lovely staff and want to tell them to hang in there, we will be back whether we can eat in or not!

My favourite tapas place in London, so lucky for it to be so closeby. Definitely need to book as it can get busy. Each of their dishes are so good, I could eat the whole menu! Great vibes and nice in the summer when the doors are all open

I have had dinner right yesterday evening. Food is really good: I ordered a black ink lemoned risotto and honestly I never tested a better one in my life. Really stunning. Other tapas were good, no doubt. My only complaint is high volume music. My god, please, we couldn't speak at 30cm of distance... It did look like to being in a disco club. Too high, guys, too high. At the light of that, it might be preferable having brunch / lunch rather than dinner.

Simply delicious and authentic. The Spanish tortilla is just sublime and slightly gooey in the middle. The mushroom croquettes are so rich in flavour with a light crisp coating.

Popular and lively typical Spanish small plates. Went there for dinner on a Saturday. Even though it was pretty full we managed to get a table. Service was pretty quick, and the place was gluten free friendly (no bread though). The food was pretty good. The portions were rather small and expensive considering both quality and quantity. Service was adequate, not unfriendly but not particularly helpful. General atmosphere was good, but a bit too rushed and hectic.
