Bar Flor Review | "Who Needs Spain When You've Got Pinxtos in Pimlico"

"Laura and the team have transformed the upstairs area into an intimate and relaxed space, with dimmed lighting, low ceiling and long centre bar topped with a few of the tapas dishes on the menu. You have a front row view of the chef knocking up the pinxtos from the bar, which is always helpful when deciding what to have next."

"Bar Flor's menu is split into half pintxos and half tapas dishes, and you could work your way through most of it while enjoying a bottle of wine. The pintxos selection features classic flavour combos, all of which are very moreish. We had all four, even going in for a second round of the jamon rillettes with guindilla and Cantabrian anchovy with shallot and salted butter because they were that good."

Bar Flor sits above Wildflowers in Newson's Yard and channels Spanish influences under chef Aaron Potter and interior stylist Laura Hart. The upstairs feels intimate and relaxed with dimmed lighting, a low ceiling and a long centre bar where guests watch the chef prepare pinxtos. The menu splits into pintxos and tapas, with highlights such as jamon rillettes with guindilla, Cantabrian anchovy with shallot and salted butter, confit tuna with white bean and red onion salad, and gambas al ajillo. Drinks include curated European wines, Basque ciders, vermouths, sherries and an Adonis cocktail, with house wines by the glass at reasonable prices.
