Pickwicks

An Evening of Tapas and Wine in Wells

For those that don't know, Pickwicks open up thurs/fri/sat evenings for wine and tapas. I gave this a go the other night and was met by a very friendly group of staff and a tasty looking menu. It all looked great in the evening and felt like a relaxed tapas restaurant with some Spanish background music and candles (I was told there is normally a Spanish guitarist). The tapas menu was varied and I was told that new additions are made by the chef each week. Once we were sat with a good bottle of wine we were treated to the seven different tapas we ordered. They were fantastic! The Spanish chef (formally at Goodfellows) also had a couple of family recipes on the menu, one of which was a pork belly, chorizo and bean stew which was my personal favourite. Despite it being a quiet evening due to the terrible weather it rates as one of my most enjoyable meals in Wells. I hope these evenings become a great success for them as I can see myself returning very soon.
