On the Grid : Barrafina

"Barrafina – a tapas kitchen on Drury Lane – doesn’t take reservations, so it’s best to head there early with only one or two people in tow. However, waiting in line goes fast when you’re greeted by friendly and knowledgable staff recommending wine and bar snacks to nibble on – think Marcona almonds rather than Bombay mix. Everything feels authentically Spanish, from the white marble decor and napkins in dispensers, through to the loud buzz of happy diners and incredible moreish food smells. Open for lunch and dinner most days, try their Adelaide Street branch around the corner if things get too hectic." - Assembly
