About this space

'The Hideout' is a private dining room in Mharsanta Restaurant & Bar characterised by a discreet, tucked-away layout that provides a private setting for small group hire.

Features: The space includes built-in PA speakers, Wi‑Fi and air conditioning, and permits guests to play their own music or bring a DJ.

Ideal for: Small corporate teams and private social groups seeking a seated dinner or a relaxed, music-led gathering.

What guests say: The space has striking decor and friendly, attentive staff; service speed can vary at quieter times.

Staff were so helpful and accommodating
Although private room wasn’t free they gave us an area of the restaurant but there was quite a gap in the tables so felt like two separate groups

Food was tremendous, very healthy portion sizes. Also having the whole "Hide out" room to ourselves suited our party and it's needs.
There was only 1 member of staff serving drinks. It was o after a while but for the first hour or so it was pretty hectic for him! Also, we waited a while on food! We were sitting for 8pm and didn't get starters till after 9 despite having pre-ordered.
