Shoreditch is the newest member of the Camino family. Inspired by the Castile y León region of Northern Spain, the restaurant and bar is vibrant yet relaxed, with a beautiful heated terrace for outdoor drinking and dining all year round.This location is particularly special to us, as it was in Shoreditch that our first ever bar Cantaloupe, opened back in 1995. The neighbourhood sparked the DNA that then lived on in all of the restaurants and bars we’ve opened since, and we’re delighted to have returned home again after all these years.

It was my partner’s birthday and there were only tables available downstairs, which we thought was a bit tight, but the team at Lobos went above and beyond to make our experience better by moving us to a more comfortable table on the same floor and adding some special touches that made us feel like we were having a celebration. The tapas at Lobos are consistently good (I had been before) and at great prices in London Bridge, so an excellent option in the area. I quite enjoy the atmosphere as well.

Lovely evening. Nice to see local restaurant busy. The tapas menu is very good and we had most of them between 3 of us washed down by a nice bottle of red wine. Live music was a bonus we were not expecting. Will come again.
