Set within the Royal Academy of Arts, Keeper’s House by José Pizarro seamlessly blending José's devotion to exceptional food, with the artistic heritage of this distinguished Mayfair landmark.
José Pizarro brings his celebrated Spanish cooking to the Royal Academy of Arts, setting up within the historic Keeper’s House. The space blends José’s warmth, elegance, and relaxed sophistication, offering seasonal dishes inspired by his heritage amid the artistic spirit of the RA—an inviting destination for long lunches, intimate dinners, or a drink after an exhibition.
José oversees three distinct spaces: the Shenkman Bar for lunch, dinner, cocktails, and pre- or post-gallery drinks; the tranquil Reading Room for quiet pauses and light bites; and the refined Dining Room, where his full menu takes centre stage. Each offers its own character while sharing the same commitment to exceptional food, beautiful surroundings, and José’s signature hospitality.
The Academicians’ Room is an elegant, art-filled retreat within Keeper’s House, surrounded by works from Royal Academicians and ideal for relaxed meetings, quiet work, or refined social gatherings.
A Royal Academy of Arts membership is required to book.
"When you see art, it's all about how it makes you feel… your whole body responds, it's the same with food – well, good food anyway! The creativity and soul that you find in food and art is the same… you get the same excitement. To be able to bring the two together makes me so happy – it's an incredibly proud moment for me in my career."
