Usually when you into a UK Tapas bar you expect to be fed a pale imitation of Spanish food. Not Tapas Tapas. I’d not feel embarrassed taking a Spanish visitor here. The food, wine and ambiance could all quite happily be in Spain, though of course the accents of the fellow diners are a clue to the fact that you are actually in Liverpool! Highly recommended

I have to say that I’m not the biggest fan of Tapas Tapas probably depsite most peoples view that it’s a good restaurant but the last meal I had here was not the best — lacking in seasoning and flavour, even the patatas bravas were a bland! — I have subsequently had freinds and family say the same — and worse which I won’t go in to because I didn’t experience it first hand. Despite the huge pieces of cured ham leg hangign from the ceiling a la authentic castillian restaurants I can’t say that it was the best Spanish food I have tried — not even in Liverpool now that it feels our economy is based on Tapas places! At around £4 — £5 pounds for a plate this is about avaerage for a tapas restaurant, unfortauntely so was the food.

Think of bacon. Everybody loves bacon. Now think of a pig. Everybody loves pigs. How come they don’t taste the same? Now think of goat’s cheese. I hate goat’s cheese. Think of a goat. Everybody feels uneasy about goats. Why do they taste sodding identical? Eating goat’s cheese brings me as much joy as sniffing Big Billy Goat Gruff after he’s been in the gym, something I first discovered in the restaurant that’s so good they named it twice, Tapas Tapas. A combination of agreeable staff and out-of-the-way location make this the ideal place to get gradually sozzled on wine and bask in the warm wooden coziness and brick-walled splendour of a restaurant with enormous amounts of quiet humility. Still, I’d rather shoot a sprout off my dog’s head with a flamethrower than try the goat’s cheese again.
