El Pastor is a family of Mexican restaurants in London, inspired by a decade our founders spent in Mexico City running the cult nightclub El Colmillo. Named after the mighty tacos al pastor, we’re devoted to the bold, joyful flavours of Mexico.

You’ll find us in Soho, London Bridge, Coal Drops Yard and Battersea, serving tacos, tostadas, quesadillas, mezcal, tequila and margaritas. We make our tortillas fresh daily in-house using heirloom Mexican corn, sourced through TAMOA, a pioneering initiative protecting corn biodiversity.

We always keep space for walk-ins, but you can also book here. Brunch is served at Battersea on weekends, and beneath our Soho restaurant, Mezcaleria Colmillo pours cocktails and rare mezcals late into the night.

Kids’ menus are available on request and well-behaved dogs are welcome at all the Pastors.

El Pastor Soho is set in a beautiful old building inspired by the faded grandeur of the colonial buildings in Mexico City’s historic centre. Alongside our menu, we offer a lunch deal on weekdays and Sundays. Downstairs, Mezcaleria Colmillo serves expertly crafted cocktails and rare mezcals for a late night crowd, with DJs Wednesday to Saturday.

In the heart of King’s Cross, set within the Victorian arches, El Pastor Coal Drops Yard is full of industrial charm. There’s a large covered terrace for all seasons, and DJs spinning tunes from Wednesday to Saturday nights.

El Pastor Battersea is located by the river at Battersea Power Station, with a large year-round terrace. In addition to our menu, we offer brunch on the weekends. 

Parties

Feasting and conviviality are the heart of Mexican hospitality. Our fiesta menus are designed for sharing, featuring a selection of our most-loved dishes.
