Restaurant · Semi-private area

Hyde Park Corner Station (0.3 mi)

About this space

With a beautiful, Picasso- inspired mural on our exposed brick wall, cosy alcoves and soft lighting, our Cellar restaurant is a beautiful space for any semi-exclusive event. The tables can be configured to suit you and your guests, allowing space for a small band, dance area or drinks reception.

The Cellar restaurant is also a wonderful option for larger groups, with our longer tables able to hold up to 25/30 guests. Enjoy the real ambience of Spain as you sample our wonderful wine list, listen to the music of Spain and feed your soul with our award winning tapas.

We are happy to offer drinks and tapas packages for larger groups, as well as a full hire of the space; please note that due to access to the toilets, we are unable to hire the cellar fully exclusively as customers upstairs will require access.

It's no wonder that El Pirata is a London institution- with over 25 years' in Mayfair, the combination of award winning tapas, excellent service and fantastic wines have been a recipe for success for many years.

El Pirata offers something different when it comes to a venue; perfect for anyone looking for a space which is a little unique and holds a lot of character, the restaurant compromises of two levels- the main restaurant and the cellar- as well as the outdoor terrace on Down Street.

The upstairs restaurant is light and airy, with artwork adorning the walls and our signature lampost at the top of our spiral staircase! This space is ideal for smaller bookings, but also works wonderfully as a drinks reception area for full venue hires.

Downstairs you'll find our beautifully refurbished cellar space; Picasso-style murals adorn the exposed brickwork, a tarnished mirror takes up another wall and the lighting is soft and elegant; overall the effect is sophisticated yet relaxing. The space offers seating for larger tables and there's also two cosy alcoves for a more intimate dining experience.

El Pirata is conveniently located minutes' away from both Green Park and Hyde Park stations, as well as being only 8 minutes away from Westminster Registry office and a stone's throw from many of the most wonderful hotels in London.

Small but perfectly formed, El Pirata could be just the venue you're looking for! Make an enquiry today and let our dedicated events team help you create the perfect day.
