As a former Roman settlement, Maidenhead is no stranger to the joys of continental cuisine. El Cerdo sits at the heart of Maidenhead’s canal-side Waterside Quarter with outdoor seating available next to the water. There’s something magical about sitting outside with the gentle ripple of the canal that just seems to make our food taste even better!
The star of the show in Maidenhead is our impressive charcoal oven, handpicked by our Executive Chef to bring the unique smoky flavours of Spanish tapas to life. Built using the same bricks and techniques as charcoal ovens have been throughout Spanish history, our oven creates ‘ahumado’ (mouth-watering smokiness) for you to savour.
When you join us in Maidenhead, you can expect a hearty, Spanish welcome along with a truly unforgettable dining experience. Although you enter the restaurant as a guest, you will leave as part of the El Cerdo family… And with a warm glow in your belly that only great food can bring!
You can find El Cerdo at The Colonnade, Maidenhead SL6 1QG

a month agoVisited for some birthday drinks but ended up having food as well. The chilli prawns were delicious, in fact everything was really good, including the churros and ice cream. Drinks were good quality and you knew what you paid for. Service was A* ! Thank you Daria for providing excellent service. She was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. We had a good table outside. We will be back

5 months agoFirst time at El Cerdo. Nice restaurant, nice setting in Maidenhead town. Only open for lunch Friday and Saturday, so Friday was quieter and a nice atmosphere. We all enjoyed the quality, taste, and variety of tapas dishes. For 3 of us we opted for lunch 2x3 selected tapas, adding one special from board, and bread with olive oil. The size of the dishes was perfect, not too small as tapas in other places can feel like a ration. Large drink selection, though not non alcoholic cider. Lunch closes at 15:30 so our lunch from 13:15 was leisurely with dishes arriving as ready. All very Spanish! Staff were attentive and helpful. Individual men and ladies toilet.

2 weeks agoSo glad to have found this delicious, authentic Tapas restaurant. The new manager Daniel gave us a warm welcome, and was attentive throughout our meal, and couldn't have been more helpful, giving us every assistance to make the most of our dining experience. Thank you, and your excellent team for a wonderful evening.

4 months agoDespite having no booking, we have been welcomed to sit at the bar which turned out to be the perfect spot. It was a lovely dinner, Memo our waiter has been taking great care of us, the sangria was so good and the food alongside it went down like a treat!
