“ Delicious food. Very reasonable orcied if you go for the 4 pairs sharing board thing. The menu is apparently always changing so won’t review specific ones. My favourite was the jam on one though. Loved all of them. Chocolate croquette should be served by every restaurant. Quick service. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere ”
“ Finally made it down to @Bar Kroketa #soho for dinner after having it on my list for the longest. Delicious food, great service and the best kroketas! Fav was the OG jamon The other dishes were also fab: the lamb samosa was a winner. #tapas #croquetas #croquette #foodie ”
“ Delicious food, breezy summer atmosphere, and refreshing cocktails make this a wonderful venue for a pitstop to escape the heat of Oxford Street. A cute little venue tucked away from the bustle of the main shopping streets they serve a delicious selection of croquettas as well as more substantial main, but alongside that comes an expensive bar and a wide variety of beers, spirits and cocktails. From a chance encounter while exhausted from shopping, they have jumped up into the top places for Spanish cuisine in central London. Seriously recommend. ”
“ Such a gem! Bar Kroketa completely stole my heart. The moment you walk in, it just feels good, super warm, relaxed, and full of that unmistakable Spanish charm. The food? Out of this world. Every single bite was packed with flavor, and you can tell it’s made with serious love. Proper comfort food, but with flair. Big shoutout to Vish and Mike; they’re honestly what make this place so special. Super welcoming, down-to-earth, and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s one of those places where you arrive as a guest and leave feeling like a friend. ”
“ The food here was 10/10. Me and my girlfriend visited Bar Kroketa around 9 months ago when we were on holiday, and are still talking about the chicken thighs (see picture). Possibly the best chicken we’ve ever tasted. This may be a strange request, but could you provide some details on the recipe of this dish? Although we may fail, we want to try and replicate it at home (we are in Hong Kong - no competition). Thank you ”
“ Great quality food and lovely service. Slightly pricey for croquetas but definitely worth it. Portions usually come in two but because we were three they adjusted the serving size. Nice atmosphere but it is a cozy place so I would recommend booking in advance ”
“ Perfect place! We love croquettes and they had an incredible variety here – each one was different and each one was delicious. The whole evening had a wonderful atmosphere, the kind of place where you feel truly welcome and don’t want to leave. The day before, we visited the Croqueta Bar at St Christopher's Place, but we enjoyed this one even more – especially thanks to the service. A huge thank you to our waiter Michael – he was simply fantastic! He took care of us the entire evening, helped us choose the best dishes, and was an absolute professional. Friendly, kind, sweet, and with a great sense of humor. People like him turn a dinner into an unforgettable experience. We’re already looking forward to our next visit! ”
“ The whole experience was perfect the food is incredible and comes soon enough that you know it’s made fresh! Highlights were black squid Kroketas and patatas bravas, so fresh and crisp. Wine selection is reasonably priced and a great selection. We had a beautiful bottle of rose as shown. Staff are very attentive but never felt rushed would Absolutley recommend. We got the Kroketas board which doesn’t sound like a lot but is very filling ”
