8.5/10Really cute place, been meaning to go for sometime, went on Valentine’s Day which wasn’t a true representation of their menu as they offered a set menu. Naturally it was a very busy evening which I don’t think they had enough staff on but staff were super lovely. Will go back on a normal evening as the regular menu looks more authentic and what we’re after in the sense of tapas.

10/10I had a date night on Valentine’s Day and was just perfect! Ambience on point and food amazing! I would recommend the whole sharing menu - only thing I didn’t love was the churros but otherwise all soooo delicious!

10/10Top quality food and super friendly & attenrive service. Nice vibe in there. Seemed like some portions were small but I left full so all good! I'd say the sangria could be stronger and one with vodka in would be a welcome option ...!

9.5/10We loved the sharing menu of 5 tapas. All the dishes were delicious especially the pork ribs, finished with a delicious rich dessert. Looking forward to returning!

8.5/10The meat was excellent, though the potatoes were a little cold. We didn't realise that there would be no vegetables - would have ordered some otherwise. The staff forgot an order of olives. My sweet was excellent, the almond tart that my partner ordered was a bit bland. The main problem was that it was very noisy - a couple of clients seemed oblivious that the were other around - the staff should have dealt with this firmly!

10/10Had dinner with my grown up kids and their partners the evening before my wedding. It was perfect. Great food, friendly service and a lovely ambience. My favourite restaurant in Stoke Newington.

5.5/10Having been to The Black Pig before, I was looking forward to the meal. I personally found the menu extremely restricting as every meat dish was pork - which I don’t eat. The fish options were also quite boring. I just wasn’t that inspired by my meal!

About this restaurant
The Black Pig With White Pearls is an authentic Spanish tapas bar and restaurant nestled between the hustle and bustle of Dalston and the village-like atmosphere of Stoke Newington. Specialising in Ibérico, only the best quality fresh 100% full breed Ibérico pork from the dehesa farms in Spain, which is used in their generous servings of tapas and mains. Starting out as a pop-up restaurant they have come a very long way since their humble beginnings. Not many pop-ups enjoy the longevity that Black Pig has to become an established restaurant. The name Black Pig comes from the meat used. Black in colour, Ibérico pigs can be found in southern regions of Spain. Head chef David is Spanish born and bred, hailing from the town of Extremadura - you can't get more authentic than that. The "White Pearls" part comes from a beautiful painting of a pig that David and his partner Melvin found on their travel in India. The painting can be found adorning the exposed brick wall of the restaurant. Inside, the atmosphere is cosy and welcoming with Melvin at the helm, always smiling and ever charming. Lit by ambient candlelight and with traditional Spanish flamenco music playing subtly in the background, you will feel like you have stumbled across a bar in the heart of Spain. All the staff are warm and friendly and more than happy to cater to your needs. The Black Pig With White Pearls will feel like a home from home.
