Used to live in Taunton, back from a London and very pleased to find a restaurant with a warm welcome, attentive staff, decent food and wine. I returned during my week in Taunton. I brought my Spanish friend, who enjoyed the Tapas and wine choice too. She pointed out that the ham in the croquettes wasn’t Spanish but shhhh- it was nice English ham and it suited my English taste, but I didn’t tell her that of course.
Dessert was lovely too.
Looking forward to next time
Very nice place and restaurant. We had few tapas like croquetas (very nice crust in the outside and flavour). The patatas bravas were really tasty and also the tortilla very original mixture and flavour. We had also pig cheeks that were tender. The place is really nice also the terrace and has a little corner for all the wines you can imagine. The variety of the menu is high and the staff was friendly and efficient. The desserts we had were a special tiramisu from the place, amazing and the iles flotante that was a very original and interesting dessert. Good place to have nice tapas and wine.
I entered the place by chance because the weather was good and I wanted to eat something and I saw the word "tapas", I asked for a table on the terrace and the attention was phenomenal. I had a wine with my partner, and we ordered ham and cheese croquettes and calamari and we loved it. I will definitely go again
We had the tortilla, patatas bravas, croquetas, pig cheeks for mains. Tiramisu and iles fotantes as dessert. Patatas bravas were not amazing and croquetas lack bechamel but spanish tortilla was well made and pig cheeks mixed well with the mash potato. Surprisingly high quality of desserts especially the tiramisu. Highly recommended.

You know you’re in for a special experience when your hosts greet you as long lost friends. We were ridiculously early due to the weather but were shown to our table immediately and walked through the options for dining. We both opted for the tapas and honestly, what an excellent decision. To begin our evening we enjoyed cocktails which were crafted to perfection whilst we perused the menu. We opted for all of the fish selection with the tortilla and mushrooms for the table. Everything was utterly delicious. We could not find fault with a single item. The service was truly impeccable, every member of the team were entirely faultless, showing a level of attentiveness and professionalism that is seldom seen. We both had puddings, with mine being the vegan option, they were again, delicious. I’m rather picky with my wine selection but our sommelier was exceptional in finding us the perfect accompaniment.
This small but perfectly formed team are a force to be reckoned with. Chef and his supporting staff deliver sheer perfection with the front of house team creating that wonderful magic that accompanies all great dining experiences. Thank you all so much, it was an absolute delight.
Beautiful food, lovely setting and on a warm, summer evening, with the sun setting, the atmosphere would be perfect. The food was second to none, and the salami with the charcuterie melted in your mouth. And the lemon sillabub was out of this world. Really friendly staff, jazzy shirts to boot and the owner is a top fella. Highly recommend, even if it is a bit pricey, but worth it for a special treat. Price of meal for 2, including 3 ipa’s and a bottle of wine was under £100, so can’t complain.
Great selection of wine, tastie tapas.
Jovial owner. Perfect location by the River Tone
How lucky are we in Taunton to have this place. Four of us went for lunch today. Friendly and welcoming greeting, fabulous food, wine was perfect and we all left feeling very happy. The staff were attentive in a relaxed way. Can’t wait to go back for an evening meal or a coffee during the day. Outstanding
Had an amazing dinner here last Saturday. Each dish is high quality and there is a great selection. Tapas portions are good.
Service was even better. All the guys that served us knew the food and were super nice and helpful.
Drink selection is great as well.
Will definitely be going back.
Oooh we had a fabulous lunch today at The Little Wine Shop! Authentic paella was delicious (what a chef) and glorious wines enjoyed in a super atmosphere.
Richard was kindness personified escorting us under a huge parasol to another shop after our meal in torrential rain to keep us dry in the Independent Quarter, you had to be there! We can't wait to visit again. Thank you 😊
