Farringdon, Mexican Restaurant Guide

“Authentic burritos on Leather Lane” from Mexican food veteran Joel Henderson, who celebrates the 20th anniversary of his first London street-food stand this year.

2022 Review: “The real deal!”, say fans of this ten-year-old tacos brand, which has various pitches around town, as well as this permanent taqueria in Clerkenwell, serving small plates alongside margaritas and mezcals.

This Notting Hill taco stalwart “really feels like Mexico”. Having operated from a stall on Portobello Road before opening on Westbourne Grove 20 years ago, it is one of London’s longest-running taco specialists, and now has an offshoot in Exmouth Market. It’s “great value”, too, and the imported Mexican beers, mescals and tequilas go down a treat (“it’s a good choice for lunch, especially if you have nothing else planned that day!”)
