About the restaurant

Cambio de Tercio is the signature Restaurant of Cambio De Tercio Restaurant Group, located in the heart of Chelsea- South Kensington. It was open in June, 1995 and is a pioneer in offering modern and innovative Spanish cuisine in London.

We also offer traditional Spanish tapas, but it is our Chef Alberto Criado’s creative dishes, what defines us and has given us our name.

Our award winning “wine list” contains the largest and more diverse selection of Spanish wines anywhere in London.

Within our renovated premises, you can now have dinner at our Chef’s table situated in our kitchen or enjoy one of our Spanish style Gin & Tonic at our “C.Tonic” Bar, with a large 80+ premium gin’s menu.

The Restaurant has gained many accolades during the years including the much coveted “ PREMIO ALIMENTOS DE ESPANA 2003- awarded by the Spanish Minister of Agriculture, Fishing and Food as “The Best Spanish Restaurant in any country outside Spain, 2003”

The food is stand out good - really excellent It was a busy night so the staff were working hard to keep up to start with but things settled well and our waiter was delightful. He found the wine we asked for ( originally thought they had run out), gave us digestifs on the house and was very personable Place is buzzy, verging on a bit loud as the tables are quite close together but it also adds to the overall atmosphere. We will be back! Thank you for a great evening.

About the restaurant

Tendido Cero was our second project of Cambio De Tercio Restaurant Group, opened in February, 2001.

It is located in the heart of Chelsea-South Kensington, just opposite to Cambio De Tercio.

It’s all about Wonderful Tapas here, small dishes of traditional and modern recipes from our rich Spanish gastronomy, which are ideal to be shared by the whole table.

Busy and buzzy, with vibrant bullfighting colours and a party feel atmosphere that makes it a deal for any celebration.

Chosen by the New York Times- Herald Tribune as “One of the best five places to eat in London for a reasonable price”

Mayfair

About the restaurant

El Pirata is a hidden gem serving acclaimed Spanish tapas for almost 30 years. Tucked away in the corner of Mayfair, El Pirata ensures that every guest instantly feels at home through their relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff, some of whom have been at El Pirata since the very beginning meaning they work as a seamless team. El Pirata couples the comforting appeal of a central London establishment with the energetic dynamism of a new opening. They have an expansive tapas menu featuring classic dishes and recently have added some new dishes to strengthen the experience offered to guests. They boast an equally impressive wine list of over 100 wines at great value particularly for Mayfair.

Whether you are dining in the artistic upstairs with a feature bar, in the atmospheric downstairs Cellar, or sipping rioja al fresco, El Pirata offers true escapism so you feel you’re in Madrid rather than Mayfair and is a firm favourite for those who want an authentic Spanish experience in London.

Delicious, fresh and creative tapas in a lovely atmosphere. Refreshing! The sangria is a bit sweet and so is the Torta de Santiago but the rest we had was outstanding. Will definitely go again!
