Mezcalito Chelsea

Mexican restaurant and tequila bar on Sydney Street, Chelsea, with birria tacos and tequila cocktails.

The story

Mezcalito Chelsea is a little taste of Mexico tucked away on Sydney Street. Founded by Laura Geas, it was created as a place to relax, celebrate and enjoy food and drink the way they do in Mexico’s liveliest bars and beach towns. Tacos are the heart of the menu. Our Beef Birria Tacos are slow-cooked, rich and packed with Mexican spices, served with broth on the side for dipping. Alongside them you’ll find Pollo al Pastor with pineapple, slow-cooked Carnitas, crispy Baja-style fish and cheesy quesadillas, all made to share. Behind the bar sits one of Europe’s largest agave collections, with over 700 tequila and mezcal expressions, plus cocktails named after the Mexican states that inspired them. Grab a table in the intimate restaurant or head out to our hidden, Tulum-inspired terrace. And if you’re doing the crawl on a Tuesday, come hungry: it’s bottomless tacos night.
