I can’t wait to go back and bring some friends to have some arepas and picada which are very delicious � and filling, the natural juices are made of colombian exotic fruits which I really recommend, the staff is very friendly and the atmosphere of the place is really cool with some colombian music in the background �
I love the new venue and the menu. Food is great. Love the hot dog. Very similar to the one in Medellin. Empanadas con aji are great!
Lovely staff.
Wonderful and vibrant atmosphere fantastic music and the food is amazing...huge portions you leave with a happy full belly. Highly recommend this place.

WOW WOW WOW - i don't even know where to begin!
This place was recommended to us by a Colombian friend who said we must go here to try true authentic Colombian food!
My husband and I had only tried Colombian once before - so still learning the cuisine and also the culture.
As soon as we walked in we were greeted with open arms, true Colombian hospitality! we admired the Colombian proud interior and then from there are gorgeous waitress made sure she explained the food, brought over pictures to ensure we could experience first hand the culture at it's best!
The food was such an experience - I mean Hot Chocolate with Cheese - now thats a first!
We started with the Entree of Empanada's (Meat & Veg) crunchy and crisp on the outside and full of flavour and soft texture on the inside.
Moving on we ordered the Beef Arepa - i think we have a new found love for Arepa's ! love the texture and how light they are! this was absolutely delicious.
To end we went all Traditional and ordered the following....
Picada - Meat platter served with patacones (green plantain) chicharron (pork belly) grilled beef (topside) grilled chicken morcilla (black pudding) papa criolla (yellow potato) columbian chorizo, yuca frita (fried casava) platano maduro (ripe plantain) guacamole and hagao salsa
This was something else - i paticularly loved the fried casava and the plantain!
After our meal - as a guest we were offered a complimentary shot!
We will be back in no time i guarantee you ! absolutely a MUST visit!

Organised a dinner for a large group with La Tienda last night (Saturday.) My girlfriend is Colombian and we wanted to share the cuisine with our friends. Every single person loved their entrees, meals & desserts, from the extensive (but not overbearing) menu. The bar is also well stocked, including plenty of authentic Colombian offerings. The decor is fun with Colombian fare all over the walls, music clips playing on the TV, and many different Colombian football jumpers hanging from the ceilings. Service was absolutely wonderful (thankyou to Alejandra for looking after us.) Value for money is excellent - even more so when you factor in 10% off for cash payments. Thankyou La Tienda for a fantastic, memorable night out.
If you're Colombian or have lived in/near Colombia before, you'll recognise all your old favourites. Food was good, service was quick and friendly, and portions were large. A bit on the pricey side for this type of restaurant, but an overall positive experience. If you've never travelled to South America, your palate may not be used to this type of food, but worth a try if you're looking for an authentic South American experience.
Authentic Colombian food with generous and succulent serves. It's attended by friendly staff.
Would recommend bandeja paisa which resembles the food from the high country mountains in Colombia. However, if you are not used to large individual serves be sure to bring someone with you to share!
The "Tinto" which is a brewed ground coffee like you would have it at any home in Colombia is also recommended.
My first time in a Colombian restaurant and I enjoyed it. Food, service and ambiance were great. We had a plate with mixed meats that was delicious, but the soup wasn’t very tasty.
Very friendly warm staff. The food was very delicious. It is also kids friendly as they are not too hot.

It was the first impression of Colombian food experience. Staff were super friendly and thoughtful.
All dishes were amazing!
I do recommend to make a reservation beforehand, as the restaurant are always busy.
Delicious and authentic Colombian food and drinks at affordable prices. There is a great restaurant atmosphere, the location is easy to get to on High Street and the food is good quality when delivered too!
I've always loved that place, been going there for years. The food is perfect every time, lovely staff and warm atmosphere but sadly the prices have gone up too much
