Now open opposite Camino, Bar Pepito is a small 'Andalusian bodega' specialising in sherry. Expect sherry tasting flights, an Enomatic wine dispenser and a simple menu offering olives, cheese and hand-carved jamon.

TimeOut

TimeOut - 4/5

Tuesday, April 06, 2010 - With room for only four or five tables shaped from sherry casks and a diminutive bar, it’s a very small space but it emits authentic Iberian appeal with jamón hanging from the ceiling, subdued bare bulbs, bare brick and tiled walls, caged wine racks and candelabras...True to its purpose, there are 15 sherries spanning all styles. To soak it all up, there's a tapas-style cold food menu featuring cured meats, olives, almonds and chorizos, regional cheeses, smoked Scottish cod, pickled anchovy and figs coated in dark chocolate.

Tuesday, March 23, 2010 - First of all, it's a lovely little spot, tucked away in an old warehouse around the back of Kings Cross, with attractive bare brick walls and and a very authentic Iberian feel. Secondly, the quality of the tapas is absolutely top notch. Not only do they have a wonderful selection of Spanish cheeses, but they also have a qualified 'Master Carver', who last night was expertly carving a leg of genuine pata negra into a plateful of delicate wafer-thin morsels. And last but not least, the sherries...
