Boqueria is a lovely tapas restaurant near Battersea Park with a semi outside area in a conservatory extension. Decent choice of tapas available and larger plates also available (including paella). The staff were very friendly and accommodating and helped with any questions we had. We had six tapas between two of us and some warm bread with olive oil, which was plenty. I so badly wanted to fit in the churros with hot chocolate but I just couldn’t!
It's very conveniently located between battersea park and queenstown road station. The decoration is quite lovely and relaxing. The staff is really friendly as well. As for the food I had to admit I had better in other places in London. The patatas bravas had a mayo based sauce rather than just being seasoned with spices. The spicy octupus was very bland. The cod fried dumplings were nice. The arroz negro (squid ink rice) was the star of our lunch, really lovely! So if you're nearby I would say this is a good place to go, but food wise it's nothing extraordinary.
A must if you're in or around the Battersea area - Boqueria was recommended to me by a Spanish friend, so I knew it was going to be good! The food is excellent - and I love that it's brought to you as it's ready and not all at once, so you know it's not been sitting for a while. I'd highly recommend ordering the calamares, the brie and ham toasts and the pork with apple sauce and lemon sorbet. All of these dishes were delicious. The staff were a little slow, but it didn't affect our visit too much.
