Wahaca Covent Garden Menu

Wahaca Covent Garden is the original Wahaca restaurant, opened on Chandos Place as the first permanent home for the group’s market inspired approach to Mexican food. Its central setting near the theatres gives the dining room a lively atmosphere for lunch, dinner and meals before a performance.

Tacos and taquitos sit at the centre of the menu, supported by freshly prepared small plates designed for sharing. Fillings move through grilled meat, seafood, vegetables, beans, cheese and bright salsas, allowing a table to combine several contrasting flavours.

Burritos, salads and larger dishes offer more substantial alternatives, while dedicated vegan, gluten aware and children’s menus help mixed groups dine together. Feasting menus collect several favourites into an easy format for parties and celebrations.

Margaritas, tequila, mezcal, beer and alcohol free drinks continue the Mexican inspired experience at the bar. Daily opening, click and collect, takeaway and step free access make the original Covent Garden branch practical for both planned meals and spontaneous visits.

Address: 66 Chandos Place, Covent Garden, London WC2N 4HG, United Kingdom
