Delicious!. Well, it was our first night out in a long while as our little boy has only just turned one. so we finally managed to find a lovely babysitter we can trust& we wanted to go somewhere local. Our friends told me about this place and we were not des appointed with the recommendation! Very cosy, food was delicious, especially the grilled pulpo! Nutty sherry, and great wine AND knowledgeable waitress who was great. Lots of people under appreciate how much food knowledge waiters are expected to know these days- everyone loves their food, right!? She seemed genuinely enjoying working there too. Thanks for looking after us on Tue night! We'll definitely be back w some friends!
... he suggested we go to “Black pig and white pearls” as he had walked past this place and he thought it looked interesting. As I am always keen to try out new places, even in remote parts of London, like Dalston, I was very keen to go there. Dalston is super trendy and edgy (if you don’t know where it is, and as this is a fairly new place a lot of people don’t, it is north of Shoreditch) and “Black pig and white pearls” fits right in, as from the outside the building is black and there is no sign on the house, and the only thing that lets you know you have come to the right place is a blackboard located on the street with the name of the place. I went inside and I instantly liked the atmosphere and the deco
Tantalising tapas 🤌🏻
Wonderful dishes, refreshing sangria, welcoming staff & a wicked playlist 🍷
This spot is one to visit for you tapas lovers! 🧡
They also have a party room downstairs, which is available to hire, great size! 🎉
Keep an eye out on this restaurant, Melvin has lots of great ideas 💡
Perfect spot for venue hire!
I hired their basement cocktail bar room for my 30th. Ordered a spread of Spanish food. Has to be the best patatas bravas I've ever had! And their cocktails were banging.
It's an excellent space and the owners couldn't have been more friendly, helpful and delightful through the whole progress. Made organising a party the least stressful thing.
Pretty well priced and I couldn't recommend it anymore!
As a Spanish person I can say this was a great discovery with amazing food! I'm also coeliac and 90% of the menu is gluten free. They also adapted the fried calamari to be gluten free by using chickpea flour and frying it in a different pan. I really appreciated it, gluten free people will understand me :)
We can't recommend enough the morcilla (Spanish black pudding), the solomillo and the boquerones. They also had few other things outside the menu, such as pulpo con patatas, which was amazing.
We were two and had six dishes to share and a jug of Sangria.
We will definitely come back soon!
From being welcomed at the front door, to the super satisfying Sangria and all the sensational Tapas dishes in between, this place has ignited my taste buds and put Tapas back on the map for me! What a delightful selection of mouth watering dishes and gorgeous ambience that leaves you wanting more. Hands down, the best Tapas I have had in London. Will definitely be back for more!
I hired the downstairs private area for my birthday, it’s an amazing space, the food was delicious and the staff incredible, could not recommend this place enough! Big shout out to Jackie for letting me play three last songs and for just being an amazing host!
Just wonderful. Used the private event room downstairs and it was amazing. Big, lovely space. The staff and owners are SO sweet and friendly. The drinks are delicious. THE FOOD. THE TAPAS. I’ve been craving it every day since. Definitely give them a visit.
This is the second time we've hired the downstairs event space, was great atmosphere and done up really nice. Highly recommended. The food was delicious with plenty of vegan options alongside the meat menu. Get the sharing platter!
We booked the downstairs space for a friend’s 50th birthday party with friends arriving from all over the world so it was a pretty special night. Melvin and his staff were fantastic! I could not have asked for a better team to look after us – nothing was too much trouble and they made the room look lovely particularly the tables with tablecloths, napkins and lots of candles. It was such a great space. 40 of us ate tapas (the food was great) and 50 of us in total for the dancing afterwards. The large speakers were great (we had our own DJs) along with aircon and clean toilets close by. The atmosphere was fantastic and this is partly down to the wonderful crew that looked after us. Melvin helped me all the way to organise the event; he was helpful, considerate and very prompt with responding to my emails – a pleasure to work with! I actually don’t think you’ll find a venue this good for the price. Thank you Melvin and your team!
I was recommended this space for my 30th birthday party by a good friend of mine and had the best night when booking out the downstairs venue. Melvin went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly for me with such lovely positivity and energy. The venue is gorgeous with such a lovely and glamourousss atmosphere and a great sound system. We ordered food which was absolutely delicious and all of my friends commented on how kind the staff were. I would highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for a space for a private party and would absolutely love to come back to the venue also for food soon!
Was delighted with how the night turned out and am very grateful to Melvin and co for their hosting! Would highly recommend!
Black Pig catered my husband’s 50th birthday celebration. The food was absolutely brilliant, we got so many compliments. Beautifully flavored, varied, great value, delivered with a smile and fabulous service. Felt home cooked but also very special.
Beautiful place with friendly staff. The pork was delicious and the dulce de leche literally the best i have tried. Im taking one star because we have been here twice and the quality was not consistent. The first time around it was a bit better than the second and it is a bit on the expensive side. I love black rice and it was a bit disappointing here but the pork is definitely worth it.
Loved my experience in this Spanish restaurant. I am Spanish myself and I rarely go to Spanish restaurants in London as I fear to be disappointed.
But in this one not only you feel like home, the food is authentic and the execution is perfect.
Melvin and David are great!
We enjoyed some octopus, solomillo and piquillo peppers to name few, and all were fab!
Also the sangria it’s a must!
Thanks and see you soon!!
Last night was just wonderfull Thanks to the restaurant. Super Friendly Stuff but Wow the Food is just incredible !
The Lights, Indoor, candles, Spanish interior, made our night Very Romantic 😊❤
Didn’t eat here even though the food looks good! Booked the downstairs for a birthday and it was great, Melvin and the rest of the staff were very friendly and everyone had a great time!
My partner and I went for the sharing vegan menu and it was so lovely and tasty, I loved the patatas bravas and the empanadillas 😊
Super friendly staff and lovely candle light atmosphere 🕯️🕯️
I’ve had dinner there twice now. The food is exceptional as is the wine, staff are lovely, wonderful experience! Amazing value for what you get.
Just visited with my family for a birthday celebration- the food and and service was excellent. We mixed vegetarian and meat sharing dishes reached served as soon as they were ready so not all together. The sangria was delicious as well as the cod (melt in the mouth) and pulled pork specials. Charming service too. Definitely worth a second visit
