We read a few scathing reviews about Santiago's Tapas, and had some reservations about visiting, but we're glad we did.
The food was spot on - we had a series of tapas dishes and all were delicious, cocktails and sangria were great, and deserts were superb. Plenty of veggie options too
The staff were attentive and friendly, and the ambiance was lovely. The venue was mostly full, lots of chatter and plenty of smiles
We only thought to take photos at dessert (everything else got scoffed pretty quickly!)
Wholeheartedly recommended
Brilliant evening at Santiago’s Whitchurch - the venue was beautiful and authentically spanish - we loved the homemade tables! The food was excellent and we would definitely recommend the octopus, prawns and croquettes! The whole experience was made even better by the staff, especially the owner of the Whitchurch branch who was so accommodating and personable. We can’t wait to come back for your relaunch on 8th June!
The food was delicious, it is the kind of place where you want to order more and more small tapas plates. The staff were amenable, they were booked inside and we booked an outside table. It wasn't due to rain, but it did, so they kindly worked out a way of offering us an inside space.
Really lovely food. Loads of flavour and a nice place. Was disappointed with the service at first, no menus brought to us and no one asked what we wanted for a good ten minutes despite it being 1/3 full. The food made up for it, and eventually the staff were helpful.

Walking in you get a distinctively warm and friendly vibe and I enjoyed the bright Spanish decor. The food is expertly cooked and seasoned well not to salty or over cooked. Sitting opposite to the kitchen I am blown away by how clean the kitchen looks and how happy and motivated the 2 Chef’s are working together. Top place to eat in the village.
food is amazing! The meat paella is out of this world was literally scraping the sides of the pan for more, patatas bravas and the chicken croquettes are also 10/10 as are the other tapas selections!
Great portions for Tapas. Would recommend the anchovies dish, sardine dish and red wines. You can either sit at talk tables or normal tables. I prefer the tall ones. Nice cosy atmosphere great for dates, work meet ups and socials.
Beautiful food, great value for money. Everything we had was just delicious 😋
Very good experience eating there
Food was incredible! We went two nights before the grand re-opening, so drinks service was a little slow due to two new members behind the bar, however the staff were so polite and friendly. Fabulous evening, thank you!
