Buried deep beneath the hum of St. Pancras, a staircase winds down towards an ancient cellar. Descend, and the noise of the city fades. This is El Matador.
Here, time is set to the hiss and sizzle of chorizo, not the frenetic pace of the world above. Good food is not meant to be rushed, and neither is the good conversation it fuels.

Why you should stay a while...
Just like in Spain, we believe in the art of sobremesa. We know a great meal is unhurried. It’s hand-made with the most beautiful ingredients, and filled with laughter, great company, and even better conversation.
So why not let a post-work beer and a plate of croquetas with your colleague turn into a full spread for dinner? Bring the whole family down for some sizzling paella. Let the evening unfold around you.
Pull up a chair, order a few plates (and/or a few rounds), and let yourself come backdown to earth. This is your spot - enjoy food the way it’s meant to be.
