Tapa

Tapa A Spanish restaurant in the Shore area of Edinburgh serving creative, exciting tapas!
(813)

Whether you are in Albacete or Zamora, a moments walk from any main street will immerse you in the hustle and bustle of real Spanish life- that of busy bars and noisy restaurants, filled with locals enjoying fresh Spanish food and lively discussion. Impassioned by this, when we established Tapa six years ago now, our home- 19 Shore Place, an old bonded warehouse, just behind the Shore- was chosen

to be lovingly restored, as we believed it offered us a genuine opportunity to recapture this wonderful ambiance.

It’s Friday

It’s Friday, the sun is shining and The Shore is shor-ing hard! It’s genuinely quite warm outside and with the good weather set to continue this weekend, we wouldn’t blame you for dusting off your shorts and kidding on you were in Spain! 👉😉

And with The Shore already looking quite continental, the only thing missing from this whole scenario is some of amazing Tapas! 👉🥳

Feeling inspired?! Give us a shout on 0131 4766776 or hit the link in bio and we’ll have you in Spain in next to no time!

Super Saturday

So, for the first time since 1999, Scotland go into the final day of the Six Nations tomorrow with a genuine chance of winning the Championship! 👉🥸

And, yes, it was the Five Nations when we last won it and there’s a few things still have to go our way, but, before that we need to do our part and we’re genuinely excited to be in this position SO at the risk of losing a small fortune, if Scotland win by a bonus point against Ireland, we’ll give everyone that’s in watching the game with us a massive 27% off their final bill to celebrate! (Because it’s been 27 years since we were last in this position!) 👉😉

It might not be enough as we need France to beat England but not score four tries or England to beat France in the final game of the day...but that’s out of our control, so, let’s focus on us! 👉💪

We’ll be showing all the matches tomorrow and, as you can see, whether they liked wearing Dan’s old shirt or not, we’re all set, so, hit the link in bio or give us a shout on 0131 4766776 to book in and join us! 👉💃

Wine of the Moment

As any football fan will tell you- don’t fall in love with a loan player! Well…like teenagers, we fell hard for this Wine of the Moment and so were stoked to find out it had just come back in stock! 👉🙈

Pinoso Cepa 50
Alicante. Monastrell: 13.5%
An Unoaked Monastrell, Made from Grapes from Vines that are Over 50 Years Old. Bursting with Ripe Plums & Cherries, Ahead of a Spiced Vanilla Backdrop & Savory Afternotes of Dark Chocolate & Coffee Beans…

…it’s EPIC! And pouring all weekend! 👉🥳

Oh and before we duck out, we wouldn’t be doing our job if we didn’t remind you that it’s Thursday and from 1600 it’s The Thursday Club and Half Price Tapas in Tapa tonight! 👉😉

Yep, it’s the most dangerous night of the week to arrive hungry and with no vouchers to be buying, it’s our favourite excuse to push the boat out and get a really special bottle of wine! 👉💃

Tap-ass

One of the things they don’t tell you about owning a small business is the sheer amount of arts & crafts skills that are required to keep things going! And so, despite being covered in Pritt Stick, we thought we’d take a moment to share today’s project…our Tap-ass Spring Deals! 👉🙈

If you work in EH6 you’ll be seeing us very shortly, but, otherwise keep your eyes peeled as we look to announce these cheeky deals over the next few days! 👉😉

The Penultimate Weekend of The Six Nations

Picture this: Cold pints of our Sexy Yeast lager, bottles of great Rioja, plates of Tapas surreptitiously landing on your table…all served with a bit of rugby on the side, too! 👉🥳

It’s not a bad way to spend a weekend, right?! So whether you’re cheering every try or just here for the food and wine (we’re not here to judge!), it’s always better watched with good company! 👉🥰
