Specials are out☀️ Running until Tuesday 3rd Mar! A super interesting line up:
Spicy Chamoy Margarita - what if we turned chamoy into a marg + made it spicy! Bold, tangy, sweet, spicy & delicious.

Bang Bang Shrimp Tostadas - guacamole, pico, crispy prawns tossed in a great bang bang sauce. A new favorite!

Smash Burger Tacos - we jumped on the bandwagon & these turned out great! A perfect cheeseburger in taco form.

Crayfish Aguachile☀️Fresh & herby with a little kick. A favorite appetizer- Best paired with a margarita!

New specials out from this evening! We’re going Baja this time around & these will run until Tues 17th☀️

Baja Marg - a refreshing yet equally punchy marg with cold pressed ginger, cucumber & blue curaçao.

Cantina Fried Calamari - a much loved special we did some time back served with a truly awesome roasted tomato mayo.

Tacos Gobernador - or governor’s tacos. Our favour taco/quesadilla hybrid filled with chopped crayfish, fajita veg & cheese!

We’re suckers for Korean food just as much as we are for Mexican. So a Korean Mexican fusion Valentines set menu sounds like a damn good idea!🩷💖🩷

Started on the streets of LA in the 90s, members of both communities started combining their staples into wonderful creations. Bulgogi tacos, kimchi quesadillas, chilaquiles with gochujang, etc.

You’ll start the evening with an amazing cocktail at our awesome new neighbors from 6pm & then join us at Cantina for dinner. Entertainment included from the sensational ! They’re playing from 6:30-7:30pm at Alchemy & 8-9pm at Cantina! For bookings give us a call! See you soon 💛💛💛

Specials are back!☀️ We’ll run these for a couple of weeks & change them up every other Wednesday! To start:

Eddie’s margarita: Edson can’t stop talking about sumac of late. Tangy, lemony & slightly floral. Rounded out with grapefruit peel & elderflower.

Crispy crayfish tails: an old Cantina favorite. Crispy tails with a delicious Japanese bbq sauce & chipotle mayo.

Barbacoa burrito: for the burrito lovers, slow cooked brisket barbacoa (has a slight kick) with all the fixings & cheese, with salsa roja on the side.

Moody weather calls for ginger fried chicken, tacos & a couple of cocktails🌞 See you at 5pm!
