Now called Olive and Coal and i think it is more of a restaurant than anything else.

Steve C left this review about Tapa Tapas
After a spell as The Forum this venue is now a Spanish restaurant and bar known as Tapa Tapas. Seating is found throughout, but the left-hand side does feel more like a bar than the right-hand dining area. During my early afternoon visit the Friday before Christmas there was a twenty-something Christmas work crowd mixed in with a group of all-day drinking down-and-outs. Some low background music was playing and I noted the lack of a television. Out the front is some seating that was being used by smokers.
Available from the friendly barman was a standard keg range alongside Peroni and Amstel; unsurprisingly no real ale, but there is a cocktail menu. An extensive tapas and sharing menu is available along with a range of burgers, which are priced between £8 and £11.
This is the sort of place I would consider popping into for lunch if I was passing with the wife in tow. At other times I think the Spoons around the corner is preferable.
