Camino was born with the opening of King’s Cross in 2007. Capturing the real essence of Spain was always the aim, and with the addition of Bar Rioja opening opposite ( this was previously Bar Pepito, London’s very first sherry bar) we came a King’s Cross institution. Our lively bar and restaurant sprawls around a hidden courtyard, coming alive in the Summer, full of people enjoying a frosted mug of Spanish cerveza, a glass of sangria or a Rioja Glass from Bar Rioja. With outdoor heaters and plenty of seating, it’s often busy on even the coldest of evenings.We’re open everyday for lunch, dinner and everything in between. Join us for our Spanish breakfast during the week, or our popular Happy Hour at the weekend. The bar at Camino is always buzzing, with DJs on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays playing the best Latin, house and party sounds until late. Always free entry!

Food and wine was fantastic. Great ambience. Only 2 things. Our table was very small so we couldn’t order too many tapas dishes and secondly some of the guests were very loud in voice. At some point we couldn’t hear ourselves speaking to one another. Other than that the Staff were very attentive and knowledgeable with the food & wine available. Cant wait to go back again! ☺️

I loved everything about my experience at The Nomad. Yes it’s expensive but it was worth it to have great service (attentive but not fussy) incredible cocktails, excellent wine, and food which was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. And the dining room - just wow. Beautiful and such a lovely ambience. I think this is my new favourite place in London.

A great evening. Scrummy food - go hungry so you can sample as many of the dishes as possible. Certainly have at least one khatchapuri. The buy the cookbook Supra so that you can try and recreate the experience from home. A wonderfully warm Georgian experience.
