The Little Taperia
About
The Little Taperia is a celebrated Spanish tapas bar and restaurant tucked into the heart of Tooting Broadway, South London. With its Michelin‑style ambience, a warm, low‑key atmosphere and a lively bar front, it’s the perfect spot for a relaxed dinner or a casual evening of drinks with friends. The menu showcases a broad selection of classic tapas—such as patatas bravas, churros, and vintage morcilla Scotch eggs—paired with a well‑curated wine list that includes boutique Spanish reds, cavas and a generous array of cocktails and spirits. Staff are consistently praised for their friendly, attentive service, and the venue’s interior is tastefully decorated with Spanish flair—ornaments, tapas art and an inviting bar layout that encourages sharing. Guests frequently remark that a visit of two to three hours allows time to enjoy the full spread, with around six tapas per person and a cheese board or dessert as a sweet finish. The restaurant accepts reservations for indoor dining via its online booking form, and there is a limited outdoor terrace for cooler evenings. The Little Taperia stays open daily from 12 pm to midnight (11 pm on weekends), making it ideal for a late‑afternoon snack or a midnight bite after a night out.
