Bombabar

Excellent food, vibe, and service. Love the tapas sharing portions and choice of set menus. Roast pork, braised beef, fried potatoes are all filled with flavours. The dessert Bomba mess was a highlight - mix of meringue, strawberries, kiwi, and lemon sorbet. Cool waitresses and atmosphere.

Took our big family group here during Xmas week, and it didn’t disappoint. Had the Pre theatre menu and it was awesome, so tasty and really enjoyable. Very filling and everyone loved it! The sangria was enjoyed by all too! Was good not to have to think about what to order and they give you heaps of variety to taste and enjoy. We will be back next time we down from Brisbane.

Been eating here regularly over many years . Consistent & reliable tapas. Love the braised beef, patata bravas croquetta

If I ever wished for the ability to endlessly eat and drink with no concern for consumption overload, this is the place I would want that wish to come true. Heaven. Every dish we tried was a taste sensation, service calm and confident, and we left full for half the cost of the standard CBD restaurant meal. Still thinking about the meal days after. My photos don’t do the food any justice but in my defence I was into the second jug of the most delicious white sangria I’ve ever had and I lived in Spain. Will be back soon to smash more of the menu. Order the bone marrow and Wagyu cecina!

Visited this place a while ago for a work team lunch. The prices for set menu was super affordable. Very well presented. Portions alright. Overall a good one.

So many delicious dishes to choose from! My fave dishes were the Manchego croquettes, scallop, bone marrow with wagyu cecina, ox tongue & flank steak! Some of the dishes were a bit salty. The Bomba mess was refreshing with meringue bits and fruit. We were so full after dinner!
Service was good even though the restaurant was packed on a Friday night. Food came quickly too. Will definitely be back!

If you love Spanish food, Bomba is ‘your’ place… I have been coming here for years, not sure why I haven’t reviewed before. Great service, amazing food and a roof top bar!! I love everything about this place.. Happy 10th Birthday..
btw its a great place to go to if you are seeing a show in Exhibition street, its only a 5 min walk…

What an awesome night out in the city with my girls and our dinner at Bomba was amazing. We were quickly seated and attended to by the wait staff. She was friendly and recommended great dishes for us to share. Loved all the tapas and mains. The corn ribs were really yummy. Seafood paella was amazing, fresh produce. The flank steak was superb both presentation and taste! Location was convenient.

Amazing food and service!
Pork belly & braised beef were to die for. And I love the patatas bravas, crunchy on the outside but soft and well cooked. They were absolutely delicious.
We will be back for sure.

Fantastic night out for dinner at Bomba and had the pre theatre menu. The service and food/drinks both amazing and one of the best meals I’ve had. Felt like I was eating in Barcelona. Went back after the show for dessert as loved it so much! Staff were really accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend Bomba and can’t wait to go back!

One of my new favorite Spanish places in town. There’s a rooftop bar with limited menu and the dining area. It was not too busy on Sunday so we could walk in without reservations. Some of the must try include - the corn ribs with really good umami spices, croquettes with great batter, grilled lettuce, patata bravas (a little too fried), cuttlefish and beans, anchovy in crostini. I’ll probably pass on the scallops and grilled prawns next time. I really like the warm bread and olive oil they served for free! The rose sangria was a bit too bitter for me. The lighting is quite low, and there are quite a few booth seats. Next time, I’d probably reserve ahead of time and ask for the L shaped booth seat in the corner where the couple can both sit with the cushioned seats.

Tried the bottomless lunch at @bombabar and I absolutely enjoyed it. We went on a Saturday arvo and it wasn’t too crowded. The ambience was nice and service was attentive. Food was not bottomless but quality over quantity! Couldn’t fault the food we had. The cheese croquetta was freshly fried with creamy cheese filling inside. The pork belly was perfectly cooked and the salsa balanced out the fattiness of it. I really enjoyed the braised beef. It was so tender that it felt off the bone. The sauce was tangy and delicious. They had an extensive drink list, from wine, beer to wine and champagne. Highly recommended the Bellini and Sangria. I was going to try all the drinks but was too full in the end. Overall 89pp for 1.5 hours was pretty decent. I would defo come back for the a la carte.

Love this place. We did Bottomless Lunch (2.00-4.00) Service was attentive - food was delicious and good portions. Drinks a great selection of cocktails and wine. After "lunch" we went to the rooftop bar and joined the after party of Miss Saigon. What a bonus. Thanks for a brilliant day out :)

Amazing food and service our waitress was super helpful and lovely! Will definitely be going back 😊

We ordered set menu- $65/pp. Great food & good portion (4/5 ⭐).

We found it quiet interesting(?) that sourdough bread was part of the starters and fried potatoes were in the mains.

We underestimated the portion by looking at the first two rounds of dishes coming in!! We were so full!

We wished that desserts were included in the set menu. Anyway we ordered it and it was amazing!

Great ambiance as well, music was not too loud and service was friendly. I felt really comfortable eating there. Sparkling water was free.

Great location, delicious food. Longer than usual wait times as there was only one staff member on. Sitting outside on the rooftop bar amongst the buildings is a unique experience. It's a must-do experience in Melbourne.

It has never failed me. Great service, fabulous food, and fabulous value. Great location, especially if you are going to the theatre in Exhibition Street.

We had a fantastic group dinner with a set menu. Very good value for money, so much delicious food! And they catered very well to different dietary requirements. Very friendly service too. I would absolutely recommend!!

Went here with my partner and we loved it!!
Great rooftop bar, amazing view of the city and outstanding service, the drinks were very affordable and so good!!
(only had some chips so can't say much about the food).

No photos, but I had a group of 8 downstairs in the dining room. It was a really fun night, great service, good food and drinks. We went with the $69 pp set menu but swapped out the main for paella. One seafood, one lamb. The quality was excellent. Then we kicked on across the road at Caretakers Cottage (bar).
