Wonderful, as ever. The beans on toast, Spanish-style, are super-tasty - and vegan too! Anyone who thinks butterbeans are boring should try this dish. We'll be back!

Our first visit to Para Picar for our Christmas meal did not disappoint. The set menu included a delicious mixture of tapas and the food was exceptional. The atmosphere in this small restaurant was cosy and welcoming. The service from all staff was great and the music choices were also appreciated. Thanks for a lovely evening. We will definitely be retuning.

Christmas get together. Food was absolutely fabulous. Not your average Christmas fare, but paid tribute to traditional Christmas expectations, outstandingly better for it. Would very highly recommend. Pete is a wonderful chef and his music choices only add to the entire experience.

There is a reason that this restaurant is the #1 rated restaurant is Saltaire. It’s a lovely place, very welcoming, excellent food and the service is always great. We had 5 plates between two, before heading off to Bradford for a comedy night. Visiting Para Picar really made the evening and made us feel like we were on holiday! I should also say that their dine-at-home boxes are also fantastic value and are a good alternative if you can’t get any one to look after the kids! We’ll definitely be back.

This place is amazing. Beer is reasonably priced, and I was pleased to see the menu was very varied, not just your usual chicken this, chicken that. In fact, I'm not even sure chicken was on the menu. I'm not fussed, because whatever you order, you know it's going to be top notch. We were here for our anniversary celebration and we were not disappointed in the slightest. These guys are clearly passionate about food and put their heart and soul into what they do. Also, it's very reasonably priced. Great service, nice atmosphere. Now, I'm going to use the Tripadvisor cliche, because it is entirely appropriate; its a hidden gem.

I visited Para Picar with a fairly large group of friends (9 of us in total). We were very well looked after, drinks orders taken swiftly and we were also given advice regarding portion sizes which was really helpful (and accurate!). When I say the food was unbelievable I cannot overstate that, every single dish was spot on. Every. Single. Dish. I had Patas Bravas (divine), Gambas pil pil (great portion & very tasty), Spinach, feta and piqulo pepper filo pie (perfect) to myself. We also shared a portion of calamari and a portion of camembert between three, both of which were (again) perfect! I also had a cheeky try of the whitebait which took me back to an island hopping holiday, and some of the padron peppers which were seasoned to perfection. All of this paired with a beautiful white wine, heaven! I cannot wait to go back... as soon as reasonably possible. Thank you!!!

A lovely local restaurant with great dishes that are updated regularly. If you want authentic Spanish food look no further than Para Picar! The portion sizes are perhaps on the ‘Yorkshire man’ size but rather too much than too little right! Tasty food from start to finish and excellent wine and sherry by the glass. I would not hesitate to recommend this small local treasure. Keep it up Para Picar 🇪🇸 ❤️❤️❤️🇪🇸
