Drenched in bright colour and spiked with bold imagery, this joint has a fast-paced atmosphere reminiscent of the streets of its namesake nation.

Moodily lit with dripping candles, whimsically decorated with offbeat Mexicana, Mexico instantly transports you to another, cooler place. You can drink in the eclectic front bar or settle into the cosy dining area to explore the short but compelling menu. Mexico celebrates the vibrant, fresh and lighter side of Mexican cuisine. The flavours are big, spicy and complex: grilled corn on the cob with lime-chilli butter; street-style salad and ceviche; soft tacos filled with pulled pork, grilled fish or skirt steak. Plates are topped with house-made salsas and slaws and peppery mayonnaise spiced with jalapeño and chipotle.

The drinks keep the vibe loud and lively, with jugs of sangria and margaritas, including variations such as watermelon and tamarind, and Mexican twists on classic cocktails. There’s a good selection of top-shelf tequila and mezcal and a long list of Mexican beers. Food is available to take away throughout opening hours and a late-night servery continues to dish out fast, satisfying food into the small hours of the weekend. Everything is served at prices that will leave you plenty of change to carry on your night or come back soon for more. And watch this space for details of a tequila tasting bar, coming soon to this little corner of Mexico.
