Steven and Stephanie Dray have substantially extended and diversified their likeable tapas spot on the Kent coast over the last few years. Originally conceived as a little slice of Barcelona in Broadstairs, it now operates as a Spanish deli by day and a restaurant by night; it also sells tapas ‘to go’ (order in-store or from the website) and has an online shop.

Finish with churros, Santiago cake or regional cheeses served on an olive-wood board. Wednesday night is paella night, so book ahead. Given that the restaurant is named after one of Spain’s trendier grape varieties, it’s no surprise that the short wine list is big on Albariño whites.
