El Cerdo Tapas Bar & Restaurant, Maidenhead

If you’ve got a craving for authentic Spanish fare, this is the place for you – prepare to enter small plate paradise.

Newly opened and offering a true tapas treat, El Cerdo has hit the authenticity nail right on the head. With 90% of what the restaurant serves imported from Spain, there are veggie, meat and fish options on the menu.

Classic tapas plates include delicious patatas bravas, melt-in-the-mouth chorizo, chargrilled octopus, and show stopper Pluma Iberica De Bellota (acorn-fed pork marinated and then cooked in a charcoal oven) to name but a few. You’re also spoilt for choice with the drinks options – there are Spanish beers and wines, plus 11 gins, cocktails, mocktails, soft drinks, tea and coffee.

Taking inspiration from Spanish style, the place looks great too. The bar is a focal point, clad in wood and tiles, there are high seats so you can casually pull up a chair – and the fact the seats at the bar cannot be booked is a nice touch and authentically Spanish. Floor-to-ceiling windows look out onto the water and, in the summer, enjoy the outdoor tables. It’s the place to go when the sun’s shining – shut your eyes and you can pretend you’re on holiday!
