Cantina Del 74

What they say:

Del 74 only opened its doors this year in Clapton and already they’re expanding into East London. The Cantina in London Fields will sit at the back of cocktail bar Helgi’s, giving visitors the option of having some Scandinavian cocktails and beers at the front, or heading to the back to try mezcal and tequila mixes. But it’s not just the same thing in a new location: they’ve got an expanded food menu to boot.

What we say:

Making a name for themselves with delicious tacos and Mexican cocktails, the guys at Del 74 have set their sights on Hackney. Still coming with lashings of frozen margaritas and tonnes of tacos, they’ve now got a few more culinary tricks up their sleeves, such as the botana de brisket – beef brisket served with tortilla chips, and also Mexican shrimp cocktail served in the traditional Acapulco market style.
