Parrillan Borough Yards

Parrillian brings a distinctly Spanish sensibility to South East London, where the pleasures of the grill meet deep, honest flavours.

The mood is intimate and convivial, built for lingering conversations and shared plates. Textures are carefully considered, from the silk of soft-ripened cheese to the savoury tug of cured meats.

This is cooking that favours craft and patience, expressed through heat, seasoning and a generous spirit. Begin para picar with charcutería and torta de barros cheese, setting a tone of rustic indulgence. Then, Rice takes centre stage in arroz de setas and arroz Ibérico, richly savoury and meant for sharing.

From the grill, pluma Ibérica arrives tender and blushing, while txuletta, aged 60 days, brings dairy-rich depth and a satisfying chew. Sides cut and complement: grilled leek dressed with picada and jamón serrano, and a cucumber salad brightened with ajo blanco. It is a rhythm of smoke, salt and brightness that rewards unhurried dining.

To finish, the Idiazabal cheesecake is a gentle finale, or linger over a Spanish cheese board.

Gather friends, book a table, and let the fire do the talking at Parrillian.
