About El Pirata of Mayfair

El Pirata of Mayfair is a Tagvenue Partner. This business has registered with Tagvenue and agreed to our venue partner standards.

With over 30 years in Mayfair, El Pirata has become a well-established London favourite, known for its classic Spanish tapas, excellent wines, and warm, attentive service.

For private hire and events, El Pirata offers a distinctive and characterful setting in the heart of Shepherd’s Market. The venue is arranged across two levels - the main restaurant and a beautifully refurbished cellar, as well as an outdoor terrace on Down Street.

The upstairs restaurant is light and welcoming, with artwork-lined walls and the restaurant’s signature lamppost at the top of a spiral staircase. It works well for smaller gatherings or as a reception space for drinks when hiring the full venue.

The cellar level provides a more intimate and atmospheric setting. Exposed brickwork, mural-style artwork and soft lighting create a relaxed yet sophisticated space, ideal for larger tables and private dining. Two cosy alcoves offer a more secluded option for smaller groups within the room.

Conveniently located just minutes from Green Park and Hyde Park Corner, and close to many of Mayfair’s leading hotels, El Pirata is well suited for a range of occasions, from informal celebrations to private events.

A versatile space with genuine character, El Pirata offers a memorable setting for your next gathering. Our team would be delighted to assist in planning your event.
