About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Healthy
  • Neighborhood gem
A beloved neighborhood destination, Boqueria brings the warmth and conviviality of a Barcelona tapas bar to the Upper East Side. It’s a go-to for weekend brunch, happy hour, casual dinners, and intimate celebrations.
Guests enjoy tapas like pan con tomate, bacon-wrapped dates, and crispy patatas bravas—alongside seafood paellas, seasonal sangrías, handcrafted cocktails, and Spanish wines.
Located near Lenox Hill Hospital, NY Presbyterian, and walking distance to Museum Mile, and Central Park.
Please note that some large party reservations may require a set menu. If that is the case, a host will reach out to confirm with all the details.
