Benito's Hat

The Story

OUR NAME

Benito Juárez was a Mexican politician and statesman of the late 19th century. He was the first full-blooded Zapotec native to serve as President of Mexico and was a truly modern leader and champion of the people. It is after this amazing man, that Benito’s is named!

OUR JOURNEY

Benito’s started with a small store in London, lovingly conceived by a team who were passionate about bringing simple, fresh Mexican food to the UK that was both authentic and modern. Since then we have opened more stores in London and Oxford, all of them being true to the original ideals that have made Benito’s into one of the most loved up and coming Mexican brands in the country.

OUR FOOD

From the beginning, Benito’s dedicated itself to serving simple, fresh food that is quick and tasty. The simple menu is built around burritos (naked or wrapped) and tacos but now includes antojitos (Mexican tapas), a salsa bar, tres leches cake and a range of fresh and frozen margaritas. We create seasonally changing specials delivering classic favourites and exciting innovations.

These items remain at the core of Benito’s and highlight the fact that the success of our brand is high quality but simple products. We pride ourselves on the change we make from Feast to Fiesta everyday at 5pm, when we turn down the lights, turn up the music and pour amazing margaritas for our customers to enjoy. We also change our menu and will happily serve food to the table during fiesta time, so our customers have more chance to enjoy our fabulous drinks.

THE EXPERIENCE

Our restaurants capture Mexico’s rich culinary culture and vibrant street food scene in funky and warm atmospheres. Grab a quick bite at lunch or relax over a margarita in the evening. We love spending time in our restaurants and know you will too. Whether it is a brunch taco and agua fresca, a quick ‘grab-and-go’ for the business crowd, a break from a day’s shopping to recharge, or a fulfilling meal and a few margaritas to kick start an evening out, Benito’s offers a welcoming, character-filled environment throughout the day.
