Clerkenwell, Mexican Restaurant Guide

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.

“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.

“Excellent mojitos and very nice tacos” have established this lively Notting Hill cantina (a street stall before it moved indoors 21 years ago) as one of the “very few good Mexican restaurants in London” – it helps that it’s “reasonable value for money”. It was a favourite of David Cameron back in the day… perhaps it still is? There’s now an offshoot in Exmouth Market.
