Harden's survey result
Summary
Long-standing tapas bar in a tiny converted pub near Southwark tube that’s “great fun and like being in Spain” – tucked away in a backstreet, it is handily close to the South Bank’s arts venues, including Tate Modern, the Old Vic and the National Theatre.
Summary
“Very good-quality” tapas and a “nice, buzzy” atmosphere greet guests at this converted small backstreet pub near the South Bank, one of the longer-established Hispanic specialists in town. It’s a “favourite for a casual night out” and “conveniently located for the NT, Young Vic, Tate Mod and so on”.
Summary
This old Southwark pub “is not the smartest venue” but it’s a favourite near the South Bank and Young Vic. The unexpected find of good value, contemporary Spanish tapas is key to its popularity, but its highest rated asset is its “wonderful staff”.

Mar I Terra Restaurant Diner Reviews
"An old favourite from the days I worked nearby, some 20 years ago. It feels unchanged with classic tapas, tasty and authentic, and much better than the ordinariness of the setting makes one to expect. Excellent service, with the boss always around to greet you and chat like he did all those years ago."
