Zanadu Tapas Bar

Now that we're in Zanadu..... Zanadu...... Zanadu is a cosy spanish tapas bar in Hampton. I went here as part of a Christmas celebration. We sat in the courtyard, it's a really nice space. Feels like you're in someone's backyard - very homely. We were treated to an array of tapas style dishes to begin with including some amazing croquettas, meatballs and calamari. The pièce de résistance was when the head chef made the paella in front of us, it was pure artistry. I wish someone would look at me the way she looked at the paella. It tasted good as well. There is a good selection of booze to wet the palate. You won't struggle to find a drink of your liking. Service was friendly, great atmosphere. The owners clearly know customer service and they do it with a smile. All in all, this place fits very nicely in Hampton. It's a great vibe, locals would be happy to have this as their local tapas bar. Wish I brought my rollerskates.

I thoroughly enjoyed my first trip to “Zaaaaanaduuuu...” on the weekend (yes, there was a lot of singing taking place)! We were invited to Zanadu for a foodie Christmas party. Immediately I noticed how friendly and welcoming the staff were - they showed us down to the back courtyard and immediately offered us a beverage. The Cava and the Rose were delicious! We were treated to some absolutely delightful tapas - I LOVED the calamari, and the croquettes were amazing - they tasted just like the ones in Barcelona. I highly recommend a visit here if you love indulging in quality tapas and wine!
