A new Mexican 'street food' restaurant from the team behind Halloumi has opened its doors in Glasgow city centre.
Mezcal taqueria and bar serves a varied selection of tacos alongside larger sharing dishes and cocktails, as well as 25 types of the spirit from which the venue takes its name.
Restaurateurs Kevin Campbell and Toni Carbajosa - who also run Halloumi, bibimbap and Rioja - have teamed up with Publican Ryan Bowman for the diner in a former office on Hope Street.
Dishes on the menu include tacos, tostadas, classico Nachos and a range of delicious Salads and Ceviche. The drinks list is designed by Mezcal co-founder Ryan Bowman featuring a range of frozen Margaritas, Craft Beers, Wines and a wide selection of classic cocktails. It will also have DJs playing funk, house and disco tracks every Thursday to Saturday.
Campbell said: “Mezcal is a place you can stop in for a bite, or stay all night listening to DJs, eating small plates and drinking delicious cocktails with friends. We’re very excited to welcome everyone from far and wide to drink, eat, party, dance on the tables and more than anything, enjoy a taste of Mexico City in the heart of Glasgow."
The restaurant will operate on a first come, first serve basis - so no need for advance bookings. Open from today for a week of soft launch events, the restaurant will celebrate their official launch party on Friday 27th September. Open from midday to 1am, Monday through to Sunday on 104 Hope Street, Glasgow. For more information and to view the menu visit;
