Amigos Alexandra

Step into Amigos, Alexandra’s vibrant Mexican eatery, where time-honoured recipes meet modern flair. Bringing bold flavours and a fresh perspective to traditional cuisine, it’s a local favourite that delivers an authentic taste of Mexico with a contemporary edge. The building itself dates back to the 1860s when it was used as a post office and then bank, and with a tidy facelift it is clear the team intended to keep its rustic charm. In fact, you can still see the old vault door towards the back of the restaurant, and the original "Pay Here" sign from the bank is on display above the till.

Set off on a journey to Mexico with the house-made tortilla chips with your choice of dip, and the crispy calamari with aioli. Then, for your main, why not opt for one of the 18 different soft tacos on offer. Firm favourites include the carnitas; pulled pork, guacamole, pickled red onion, slaw, and aioli, or the pollo frito; fried chicken, charred corn salsa, slaw, and aioli. And for the vegetarians there is no shortage of choice. The coliflor with cauliflower, pumpkin, and sunflower seeds, or the jaca y cebollas with jackfruit, onion rings, and slaw are just a couple out of many options.

To finish in true Mexican style, enjoy the classic churros or indulge in the chimichanga platano, a tortilla filled with banana, ice cream, chocolate and caramel sauce.

Whether you visit for lunch or dinner, Amigos delivers a vibrant atmosphere and flavour-packed dishes that are sure to impress. Gather your friends and family, come for the food, stay for the margaritas, and savour delicious Mexican fare all day long.
