For a sit-down dinner we generally do not accept group bookings of more than about 50 guests. However, if you would like to book the entire venue for a stand-up drinks and canapes event, we could accommodate up to 70 guests.

Which of our four dining areas you wish to choose partly depends on the size of your party, your general preference and your budget. For more information please see our Dining Areas page.

Paladar is a cashless venue. Payment is normally only made by debit or credit cards, Apple Pay or Android Pay etc. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express (Amex) and most of the leading Western card payment types. However, we do not accept Diners card.

Unless in exceptional circumstances, we no longer accept payment in cash (although you are welcome to tip your server in cash if you wish). We also do not accept Bitcoin or other crypto currencies.

For payment of deposits for group bookings, pre-ordered canapes or pre-paid group events we prefer a direct transfer to our bank account, details of which will be provided.
 

We do not generally bake cakes in-house, but we can supply wonderful birthday, wedding and anniversary gluten-free cakes from a local artisan cake maker. If this is of interest, please contact us by phone or email well in advance.

We have many birthday celebrations at Paladar and for most birthdays, we put some candles onto one of our desserts (or the dessert platter) and bring it to the table with a song
 

Yes, you are welcome to bring a cake along as long as you also order some of our desserts. However, if the cake is in lieu of our desserts, then we would charge you a “cakeage” fee of £2.50 per person. 

Either way, we are happy to keep the cake for you and then bring it out with candles and a song for the birthday boy/girl at the relevant moment!
 

We occasionally have live music for special events, but we do not have live music in the restaurant on a regular basis.

If you are arranging a private party and would like to have live music please let us know, as we have several Latin American musicians that we particularly recommend.
 

Yes, if you have exclusive use of an area as a private space you can play your own music and put up your own decorations – but no confetti or balloons with confetti inside them please!

For logistical reasons we generally only offer our group menus (Fiesta Feast Menu / Fiesta Lite Menu or Sharing Set Menu) to parties of more than ten. However, if you are 11 or 12 you may be able to order from the Daily Menu, depending on how busy we are - especially if you pre-order.
