Been coming here for years and the food and service hasn’t changed - stayed at the same amazing level!It would be great to see the menu expanding a little as I believe it was reduced during the pandemic.

La farola was a very nice restaurant, cosy and decent. The food was tasty. Pan con tomate was the best dish with pulpo. The reason why I give 4 and not 5 starts is that the sangria was average and it was too expensive for what we got. Last they potentially made a mistake because the jamon was out of stock, and although they told us we realised later that they might have included in the bill (unintentionally). I would go back.

I would give this place 11 stars if I could.We got some goodies from Too Good To Go for dinner and then we were sad we actually didn’t stay in for more! Staff was really helpful with allergen information so I could share some of the dishes with my boyfriend.We definitely will make plans to visit again for a proper sit in experience :D

Excellent food. We all agreed the best tapas we've ever had. Lovely evening. Voices carry a lot and there doesn't seem to be any acoustic dampening so difficult to hear each other. Other than that very lovely spot, will be returning.

Came here with a friend on a Friday evening and both the food and service were top-notch. Jaime in particular was very friendly and attentive (the other waitstaff were also great but special shout out to him for treating us so well), and we had a very enjoyable time. Will definitely be back!

La Farola is always amazing. Fresh, fabulous small plates. Their chorizo and courgette flower are musts. And it all goes well with a delicious margarita.

Great service, waitress was super attentive. The food was good although portions should be bigger I think. I recommend the “pick me up” as dessert it’s a type of tiramisu.

A local favourite. From lockdown takeaways to brunch to tapas dinner to takeaway mulled wine during those daily winter 2020 walks - La Farola is always there! The service is friendly and professional.The brunches are fantastic and the tapas is delicious - recommend the squid ink risotto, prawns and croquetas.The brownie and turron and crema Catalans are to die for!

Quick and good service! I didn't book in advance for a Saturday lunch time meal. The food was very tasty. A bit small space so not the go to space if you're looking for something spacious, but there are some seats outside, if the weather is good.

Spanish place on upper street. We were satisfied with overall experience! Highly recommend their courgette flower - it was simply amazing, the combination between honey, goat cheese and courgette was just melting in my mouth. Iced coffee was (unexpectedly) nice as well. Servers were attentive enough given that we ate outside.
