Reviews Bradley's Spanish Bar

Nice little bar just off Oxfords Street!!!! Loved the warmth of the place!!! The bartender was very helpful and funny!!! Enjoyed my short time at the bar!!!

A tiny two floored pub on the north side of Oxford Street. Bradley's Spanish Bar is adorned with perhaps the most memorable genuine 60s and 70s juke box ever, still playing vinyl 45s. Bit of Rolling Stones as I write. A superb little pub with an additional bar and seating in the basement. Tiny but lovely, know so many that would have this as their local. Come down and give it a try, you will love it.

Excellent bar, just around the corner from Tottenham Court Road. Tiny room on the ground level (which I prefer!) but there is a lower level. Great music and good atmosphere. Bar peeps are always friendly, too.

🚇 Tottenham Court Road 🍺 £6.00 Mahou ❤️ A famous West End watering hole. . Bradley’s Spanish Bar is located on Hanway Street which is just off Oxford Street. The nearest tube is Tottenham Court Road. . This old school London pub is decorated in the red and yellow of the Spanish flag and opened its doors back in the 1950’s. . There are two bars, a small bar and ground level and a larger bar in the basement. The decor here is dated with a 1980’s local pub feel, which I love. Around the walls are an eclectic mix of prints, postcards , bank notes and pictures of loyal locals. The seating is limited on the ground floor to a comfy banquette with a few low tables and a few stools around the bar, downstairs there is a bit more room but be sure nab a seat when you see one. . Although the name of the pub eludes to an Iberian offering, you wont find any tapas and the like on offer here. What you do get is a good range of Spanish lagers and some homegrown ones too. I opted for a pint of Mahou, I checked with the barman before ordering the correct pronunciation, he said it’s pronounced “Mao” not “Mahoo” as most punters have said. My pint was very agreeable, hit the spot and wasn’t overly expensive. . There is a low-key and unpretentious vibe here and you immediately feel welcome. I have visited this pub a few times over the years and have always enjoyed the atmosphere. This visit was on a Saturday afternoon and the bar was a mix of tourists from Sweden, USA and Ireland plus locals all engaging in a good old chat. The star of the show is the legendary Jukebox which spins 45’s from years ranging from the 50’s to the 90’s. Its was great hearing Blue Monday by New Order blast out from this superb machine. The service here is great, the bar staff are very chatty and take all sorts of conversations in their stride. . @bradleysspanishbar is one of London’s pub gems, when you talk to someone about visiting here they often tell you a story about their experience and always mention the Jukebox. Definitely plan yourself a visit here as part of trip to the West End. . ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 28.05.22

Pub chains are buying many of the pubs and they are all becoming an imitation of what they used to be. Bradley's is a great exception in a ridiculously central location. This is your chance to avoid tourist traps, listen to real jukebox music and experience a real old school pub. Even Anthony Bourdain's (r.i.p) visit couldn't ruin this place.

The guy at the downstairs is super great. So engaging and fun. Might be a reason why people like to stay downstairs. I got a chance to meet people from different countries. I would recommend the place to anyone.
