Where to start. The staff, the atmosphere, the food, the drinks, the owners breaking out in song - Incredible. If I could rate everything above 5 star, I would, and if I could dine here every day, again, I absolutely would.
From the table of Scots, we send so much love 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🩷

My two friends and I visited Gamboa on Friday 16 January 2026 at lunchtime. We were very happy to get a table without a reservation as we could see how busy it was. We were made very welcome and were surprised and thrilled with the food and service provided. We joined the proprietor in a few songs when he appeared with his guitar. I don't think there are many visitors who can match our stay of almost 7 hours. We loved it all. Thank you Xavier and your fantastic singer.

What a nice place!
Amazing people and lovely service, the day menu is extremely cheap and full of everything you need for the lunch.
Easy recommendation!

Our big group of about 30 were served very efficiently despite the place being very busy at lunchtime. For what I paid I cannot fault the service or food. I would definitely go there again.
