Banquet Information

El Galleon Restaurant has been the choice for good food and fun times since 1967. We pride our self on our quality of food, and in 2006, El Galleon was voted #1 in “Best of Food” at the Chamber of Commerce’s annual Avalon Taste Around event. El Galleon offers a festive atmosphere with Live Karaoke throughout the year.

Our banquet facilities include an upstairs mezzanine that seats up to 45, and is a semi-private banquet room overlooking the main restaurant. The mezzanine is available year round, or in the wintertime, you can book the entire restaurant for lunch or dinner and hold your own Karaoke party – Always a big hit!

El Galleon is on the beach, centered on Crescent Avenue – Avalon’s bay front promenade – and is within easy walking distance from just about anywhere in town.

Join Us for Good Food & Good Times!
