The crypt of a church in Brixton might not be the first place to spring to mind when considering where to locate a tapas bar. However, for Gremio de Brixton it strangely works. The bare brick arches of the underground space give the tapas bar an intimate and slightly dark vibe enhanced by the candle-lit tables, framed photos of matadors and flamenco dancers and the catholic shrine housed in a corner.
Gremio de Brixton differentiates itself from the rest of the Spanish bars in London with its range of late night entertainment. Not only does it aim to serve great tapas but also be a great bar and clubbing space. The bar is open until the early hours with DJs playing a mix of Latin beats making it a great late night alternative to the other Brixton bars.
Along with a great selection of tapas, the bar will be well-stocked with a wide variety of Spanish wines and beers meaning it is already well on the way to asserting itself on the list of the best tapas bars in London.
