Nicholsons TaPas Bar in Basingstoke and Deane

Fantastic food and great service, in a relaxed atmosphere. We had tapas dishes, and from the fish platter starter to the dessert selection we weren't disappointed. Will definitely visit again

Recently visited Nicholsons with my partner and absolutely loved it. Brilliant menu and one of the best meals I've had. For an independent business and the quality of the food, the price is really good - you'd pay the same or more at a chain restaurant for food half as good. We liked it so much, we went back for lunch the day after. Cannot recommend it enough!

An amazing variety of food- I think I ate the most I’ve ever eaten at a restaurant! The steak tapas was the best beef I’ve had in Portsmouth, and the bleu cheese mushrooms were delightfully light and delicious. We had six tapas in total- every dish was different but complimented well. Highly suggest a visit as a date- maybe not a first date as you share everything and I could see that being awkward, but my partner and I loved being able to try bits of each other’s food. She’s vegetarian and had PLENTY of options, the menu allowed for any manner of dietary requirements. I also reccomend their desserts, we had the crepe brûlée and some chocolate and marscapone dish that were perfect meal enders, also try a glass of the dessert Chardonnay to cleanse the palate after all the tapas. My partner loved their watermelon gin drink (new addition to their menu). Cannot rate highly enough, service was great too. Go hungry!!

Came for late night drinks after a long drive to see family before our trip abroad, a really lovely venue with a really up to date and modern aethestic, the staff are lovely, especially Darren our server who made us cocktails at the bar, he was full of knowledge and lovely to speak too.The rest of the staff were also really attentive and friendly, a lovely vibe and a proper gem of Southsea, I recommend a visit for tapas if you're in the area.

Three of us came here for tapas - loved it! Really nice atmosphere and super friendly service. Perfectly-sized menu of delicious dishes, really well cooked. Great sangria!Everything was excellent - highly recommended.

We tried two of the specials which were both delicious, especially the pork belly. Every dish was well prepared and the service was great. We will definitely be back!

A lovely Spanish Restaurant serving delicious authentic food, every single item ordered was perfect, nothing went to waste.Friendly, helpful staff, nice decor.

Always a great night at Nicholsons! Lovely food, great ambience, even better sangria! Portion sizes are insane for the tapas, which is actually a bit annoying as I want to taste all the things but can't fit them all in!! 😂 Definitely try it, it's a great reataurant

Absolutely amazing food, freshly made. Proper, authentic Spanish tapas, very nice sangria, perfect alioli! A delight! We will come back and recommend it to all our friends.

A very pleasant little restaurant, which offers a Spanish themed menu and a selection of wines and cocktails. We had 9 tapas dishes between 3 of us, which was more than enough.Each dish was plentiful and very tasty. To finish, we managed a single serving of churros between us, which was authentic and lovely. The only downside for us was the single unisex toilet, with a poor standard of cleanliness. Other than that, we would highly recommend and we will be back.
