Looking for a Spanish restaurant in London can mean very different things depending on where you are, who you are eating with and whether dinner is the whole evening or just the first stop.

Jamon Jamon currently has two London restaurants: Soho at 3 Caxton Walk, WC2H 8PW, and Belsize Park at 177 Haverstock Hill, NW3 4QS.

Spanish tapas in London

Tapas are at the centre of the Jamon Jamon experience. Small plates make it possible to try several dishes in one meal, share everything and order another round when the table wants more.

Classic choices include Padrón Peppers, Gambas al Ajillo, Croquetas de Jamón, Chorizo al Vino and Patatas Bravas.

Paella in London

Paella plays a different role from tapas. Instead of several small plates, one wide pan becomes the shared centrepiece of the meal. You can order paella on its own or begin with tapas first.

Read our Seafood Paella guide or our Tapas or Paella guide if you are deciding how to build the meal.

Searching for the best Spanish restaurant in London?

There is no single restaurant that is best for every diner or every part of London. The more useful question is what you want from the meal. Jamon Jamon focuses on shared Spanish food, freshly prepared paella and two very different London settings.

Spanish restaurant in Soho

Choose Soho if you want central London, the West End, theatre plans or a night out. The restaurant is around five minutes from Piccadilly Circus and sits in the heart of Soho.

See our restaurant in Soho guide for local detail.

Spanish restaurant in Belsize Park

Choose Belsize Park if you want a more relaxed North London neighbourhood atmosphere. The restaurant is around two minutes from Belsize Park station and has easy access from Hampstead and Primrose Hill.

See our restaurant in Belsize Park guide for the local view.

Which Jamon Jamon should you choose?

Choose Soho for West End convenience, pre-theatre dining and central London plans. Choose Belsize Park for a neighbourhood meal, North London convenience and a more relaxed pace. The food philosophy is the same: Spanish dishes designed to be shared.

Good for dates, groups and family meals

For couples, start with several contrasting tapas and add more if needed. For groups, order by category—vegetables, seafood, meat and something crisp or creamy—so the table stays varied.

Use our tap​​as-for-two guide or group tapas guide before booking.
