Look, Coal Drops Yard isn’t exactly known for bargain eats. El Pastor is not cheap. You’ll drop a decent chunk of change for a few tacos and a drink – think £30-£40 per person if you’re not careful. But here’s the thing: the quality is undeniable. The meat is cooked with skill, the tortillas are handmade, and every bite tastes like someone actually cares. That’s rare.
Is it the best Mexican food in London? It’s a contender. Is it the most fun taco spot? Absolutely. The vibe, the smoke, the heat – it all comes together like a perfectly messy orchestra. You leave feeling full, happy, and a little bit like you’ve earned a nap. So grab a friend, embrace the chaos, and order three tacos to start. You’ll order two more. Trust me.
Now go forth and eat. And don’t forget the napkins.
