Two brothers from Galicia have run this small Spanish place for over 30 years, and the welcome is the first thing families notice — staff who chat and take an interest rather than just an order. Tapas is the thing to order: octopus, hake, jamón ibérico and baked aubergines all get singled out, plus off-menu specials worth asking about and a dessert trolley that keeps children going to the end. There are high chairs, a kids' menu and outdoor tables, buggy access is fine, and parking is free. It's cosy rather than roomy, so it gets warm and chatty when full. One small gripe: bread arrives by the slice rather than the basket, which feels mean next to all that sauce. One parent calls it "a gem in Epsom".
