Harbour Street Tapas

Visited her midweek with my wife and baby and had a great night! They were so accommodating for our baby and got us a table with lots of space for the pram and made us feel very welcoming! Had a range of tapas with the tortilla, chicken and rice and basque cheesecake the highlights! Really great place to go in Whitstable and feels very authentic!

OMG it's just so good...after 2 weeks in Andlusian Spain (predominantly eating our weight in octopus) we just needed a foodie fix, and boy did HST deliver; great service, amazing food & good choice of wine....& delighted to find Galician Octopus (pictured here with the accompanying potatoes) as their special....and yes it was...very special.

Amazing Spanish food (and I used to live in Spain)! Good wine and all reasonably priced. The staff were attentive and friendly. Would come back!

We’ve just walked out of Harbour Street and I had to write a review. Hands down the best meal we’ve had in Whitstable and we have had some great meals. Every dish was exceptional and the service was flawless — warm, attentive and perfectly paced without ever feeling rushed. We’ve eaten at some great places this week, but Harbour Street was on another level. Make sure you book in advance — it’s busy even on a rainy February evening, and now we completely understand why. We’ll 100% be back. P.S. I don’t say this lightly… the cheesecake might be the best dessert I’ve ever had and Im a cheese board person 🥰

Not been here for a long time and wish we had come back sooner. Very busy and fortunately dropped in ahead of time to reserve a table. Despite being busy the service was friendly and helpful, food almost came too quickly as would have happily lingered longer. Whitebean Hummus and the asparagus tortilla were delicious but hard to find fault with any of the dishes we tried.

Fabulous evening meal and great service at the Harbour Street Tapas. 100% recommend this restaurant as a must go to place in Whitstable. Booking is essential!

We had a wonderful time here as the food was amazing. Some highlights would be the fried baby squid and grilled tiger pawns. We also ordered pan con tomate, padron peppers and duroc pork ribs. The portions were relatively large and the service was excellent. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys Spanish food.

Delish lunch with my son 😋, it was a pretty dreary day, so put some sunshine in it! Octopus was our favourite, superb balance of flavours. Fluffy crispy patatas bravas, croquetas chicken and leek, could have eaten a bowl full !!

Varied and tasty menu. Fast friendly service. Next time I am in Whitstable this will be a dining destination! Thank you for squeezing us in to your busy evening!

What is one to do when one arrives in Whitstable during the first day of the Oyster Festival with no dinner reservations? Beg? Well we did, and we were lucky enough to get a spot at the bar at the yummy Williams & Brown Tapas Bar. Its cozy and busy with genuinely friendly staff (everyone in Kent seems to be nice!) and a great menu that is heavy on the seafood and updates weekly. The star of the evening was the Galician Fish Broth, which is a stew of mussels, squid, white fish and prawns in a scrummy broth that will force you to order extra bread so you don't lose a drop. We also had the seabass (fantastic) and the salchichon and chorizo plate (simple but good) and the lamb chops (only disappointment, a bit tough) as well as the patatas bravas. We also loved the wine, Vega del Rayo Rioja (2006). Highly recommend, but think about making a reservation if you're visiting Whitstable on a Saturday in high season!

This Tapas Bar is fantastic and probably our favourite place to go out when its a special occasion. The place is really small and cosy, with some bar style seating in the window so you can watch the world go by (well Harbour St, Whitstable, anyway!). The food is delicious and they have a nice range of tapas on offer, including some main meals. There are several daily specials and a lovely range of delicious desserts. Great place.

Excellent little tapas bar. Always friendly and often the same people serving too which is nice. Top notch paellas (both vegetarian and regular) and some incredible little dishes.

Lovely food. Quite chilled. Nice to see local people being successful. You need to get there early as they don't take bookings for small tables. All a little over priced. Felt a little ignored as a table of two, but would go back as food was great.

The tapas was absolutely incredible. Fairly large range of vegetarian options and all were delicious. Place is pricey though, and small.
