Really nice restaurant. Nice friendly staff and a nice way of ordering. Some of the dishes were excellent a couple were ok but ones I wouldn’t order again. The patatas bravas were good, as were the ribs and the chorizo. The fried anchovies and spicy chicken in a creamy sauce were my least favourite dishes. Will come back again.
An absolutely incredible restaurant. The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff are lovely and the food is perfect.
The portions are on the smaller side which is great as you definitely feel like you get your money's worth and you get the chance to try things you probably wouldn't anywhere else.
Also, heavily suggest the red wine sangria - it's heavenly!❤️

If there's one thing I can't stand, it's British tapas. Tapas turned fine dining in the UK is something I simply refuse to review. Over priced dishes served around dimly lit tables by students who spent a "gap yaar" in Madrid. Often employing cuts like flat iron steak or New York strip for that "authentica taste".
HOWEVER, this is not what you'll find at La Fonda. This, is Tapas. It's rustic, home cooking where dishes are prepared by experienced hands, with the kind of care that's passed down through generations.
You open the door on a busy Horseforth high street and walk into a chiringuito in Jimena. The croquetas and the calamari are the best I've had in the U.K. Do yourself a favour and make sure to order those.
Honestly everything I had was fantastic bar the boquerones that were a little over fried. But hey, it might feel like a beach bar in Al Maria, but we're still in Leeds.
The value for money is absolute. With an extensive and very tempting drinks menu. Ordering as many snacks as you like for £20 can't be beaten.
The owner and the hostesses are all super friendly and read a table extremely well. They can tell who wants to chat and who doesn't.
Try this place. Go for lunch, go for dinner, but support it.
Thank you for a wonderful meal and a taste of home. I will certainly be back soon.
Love bread with olive oil. Ordered it 3 times! Could easily have been in a Spanish tapas bar.
Came in for a couple of plates and received fantastic service and the food was even better than the first time we came. Will be coming back for sure!
Visited here for my birthday back in June, brilliant to have a decent tapas place in Horsforth. Really like the idea of the small plates and set-menu type ordering. Perfect for couples, could prove tricky if anyone has specific dietary requirements I'd imagine. Staff were very attentive and quick, food was brilliant. Would definitely recommend for a couple looking to enjoy a chilled out environment with decent food & drink!
Went for a date night. The staff were so friendly and efficient. All you can eat tapas with perfect portion sizes to allow you to try many different dishes without wasting food. The food was incredible, best tapas I’ve had in leeds. Cocktails were incredible and again the drinks are extremely reasonably priced. Outside area looked beautiful. I cannot sing this places praises enough. 100% recommend and will be returning.
Excellent food, warm & welcoming service and a great atmosphere (on a Wednesday night). Will be returning to La Fonda soon.
Brilliant tasty food, excellent choice. Staff were amazing and friendly. Will definitely be going back
Came here on a Wednesday night for dinner, there was a great offer for 2 course meal, so we got the croquettes, meatballs and garlic mushrooms which were absolutely delicious. For mains two of us had seafood paella and we asked for it in a big pan otherwise if you were to get it just for yourself they serve it on a plate, so I'm glad there was two of us having the paella 😁.
Loved the vibe, the decor was lovely and it was so authentic.
Really worth giving this place a try! I will definitely be back again.
