Barrica, with its canary-yellow walls, rich wood and marble, brings Fitzrovia's new media crowd a little taste of laidback Spain in the non-stop West End. But as sunny and playful the decor may be, the drinks menu is nothing but serious: there are 16 sherries on offer, all served by the glass, ranging from the intensely sweet to the bone-dry and salty. And if you can't choose between that lot, there's the wine list: around 30 Spanish vinos have been picked by the bar's oenophile owner.
Despite its extensive alcoholic offerings, Barrica is not a place to get legless – it's a smart bar on Goodge Street, not a nightclub in Magalluf. Be sure to pick a few dishes off the brilliant tapas menu to keep things civilised.
