This festive season, step off the bustling streets of Mayfair and into the warmth of El Pirata \u2014 one of London’s most beloved and affordable Spanish restaurants, just off Park Lane.<\/p>\n

Renowned for its authentic tapas, lively atmosphere and timeless charm, El Pirata has been a Mayfair institution for over 31 years. This festive season, for a taste of a Spanish Christmas filled with flavour, flair and neighbourhood spirit, El Pirata invites guests to gather loved ones for a festive tapas feast designed for sharing. Put together by Executive Head Chef and rising star Chaxi Guinzo, the exclusive Christmas Party menu is complemented by El Pirata’s renowned and celebrated wine list.<\/p>\n

This season, the decadent Christmas Party menu begins with Jam\u00f3n Ib\u00e9rico 100% 5J Bellota \u2014 Spain’s prized acorn-fed ham \u2014 alongside Padr\u00f3n peppers from Galicia, Pan con tomate y ajo and indulgent ham croquettes. Dishes of fried cod cheeks with lemon alioli and slow-cooked lamb shoulder take centre stage, complemented by roasted cauliflower with romesco sauce and, of course, patatas bravas. To finish, guests can enjoy churros and turrones for a sweet taste of Spanish tradition.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, highlights on the Vegetarian Menu include grilled asparagus with Manchego sauce and roasted almonds, and roasted sweet potato with goat’s cheese, alongside comforting dishes such as grilled artichokes, fried aubergine with honey and Cabrales cheese, and the much-loved spinach and Payoyo croquettes \u2014 adding a creamy, savoury note just before dessert.<\/p>\n

Able to accommodate up to 70 people for a Christmas party in the cosy wine cellar, whilst equally ideal for intimate dinners, team gatherings or a full restaurant takeover, El Pirata offers the perfect setting this festive season \u2014 all just a short walk from Green Park tube station and the heart of Mayfair.<\/p>\n

El Pirata is all about warm hospitality, honest cooking and fantastic wine. A famous local institution that transports guests to the sunny, welcoming streets of Madrid and beyond, its standout charm is best enjoyed at Christmas time.<\/p>\n

The Christmas Party Menu at El Pirata is priced at \u00a349pp for a minimum of 6 people, or \u00a340pp for a minimum of 6 people for the Vegetarian Christmas Party Menu.<\/p>\n
