Carmen Bar De Tapas

I agree with the last review, I’ve also had a bad experience with that particular manager – no people skill what so ever, the rest of the staff are lovely, it is a shame. I used to be a regular customer before he joined and used to be one of my favourite places to eat.

I’ve now found myself a different Tapas Bar called Barba Roja and I definitely recommend it.

I adore Tapas food and love going to Carmen, but my last experience was very unpleasant and disappointing. The food was lovely until I had a problem with one my dishes…. I Asked to speak to the Manager and he turned out to very rude with no social skills and barely spoke English! I appreciate that you would have Spanish staff but the manager could at least have a basic knowledge of the English language. Consequently he sent one of his waitress who was very pleasant and sympathetic.

I’m a manager of a restaurant myself and if I treated my customers in a rude manner I won’t have any left. Lovely food and atmosphere but your manager lets the restaurant down.

Well I most probably won’t be going back to this restaurant.

Superb tapas bar, just outside Clapham Common underground station. Great food , service and value, with convenient opening hours. Gets understandably crowded in the evenings.
