Manchester continues to vie for the position of the UK’s second city when it comes to dining out – and at the rate it is going, the birthplace of the industrial revolution may edge out Birmingham and Edinburgh to take that title. In the last year the Northern capital has seen the launch of the […]
As longer evenings in London have finally arrived, Ibérica in Canary Wharf is set to launch its summer terrace La Terraza on Friday 15 April. Located in Cabot Square, La Terraza has its own bar and kitchen offering a range of light bites, summery cocktails, fruity sangrias and other drinks. Dine al fresco with a […]
A chain of popular, modern tapas joints opened its sixth site a stone’s throw from London’s Victoria station this week. Ibérica has taken up residence in the Zig Zag Building alongside Martin William’s new M Restaurants venue – a restaurant, members’ club and wine store. It seems as though Belgravia will soon be rivalling the City’s Broadgate […]
This summer Red’s True Barbecue bucked the trend of southern restaurants heading to Manchester (Hawksmoor, Iberica, Burger & Lobster etc) by bringing a northern-only operation to the big smoke. Now this chain of US-inspired, dude food emporia has announced the acquisition of another new site, opening in Liverpool in November. The building, on Hanover Street, a former […]

The Goodman group recently received much press about its latest prix fixe restaurant Beast (pictured) – a decadent affair charging £75 a head for king crab and steak – a concept you probably won’t find outside of London. Their lower profile, but no less successful brand, Burger & Lobster on the other hand seems tailor-made […]
It’s all happening in Manchester at the moment. No sooner have the duo behind trendy Hawksmoor announced plans to open an outpost there than the trendy(ish) Ibérica group unveils plans to join them. The tapas restaurant, with four sites already in London, has long been praised by reporters for its authentic Spanish dishes. Even as the […]
Spanish tapas bar chain, Ibérica, opened its third London outpost in Farringdon’s Turnmill Street today (28 April).
