When you're craving Mexican cooking, the varied menu from Café Pacifico includes a broad choice of classic dishes. Loaded burritos, sizzling fajitas, and tacos with fillings like grilled pork, sea bass and king prawns, or chorizo are all on offer. You can finish off your meal with sweet churros. Everyone can enjoy tasty treats at Café Pacifico – vegan, gluten-free, and children's menus are also all available here, making it a great destination for families and larger groups.

A concise wine list is served but you can add to the Mexican feel with a margarita or cocktail pitcher to share. Classic cocktails and options with tequila or rum are available from the bar, with tastes that are sure to get the fiesta started. Like any self-respecting Mexican restaurant, Café Pacifico also has a vast range of tequila and mezcal. You can order flights of either drink to sample a variety of authentic flavours. For accessible classic cuisine in a restaurant that's well-established but feels contemporary, diners keep returning to Café Pacifico.
