A spotlight on London's Cheeky Chicos

Found in the vibrant heart of Elephant and Castle, Cheeky Chicos Elephant Park has become a buzzing hotspot for lovers of Latin fusion cuisine, cocktails, and a lively dining experience. From the moment you step into the colourful venue, you’re greeted by the energy and warmth that have made Cheeky Chicos a local favourite. Its quirky decor, street-food-inspired ambiance, and cheerful staff create the perfect backdrop for a casual meal, a celebratory bottomless brunch, or a cheeky mid-week happy hour.

Cheeky Chicos prides itself on delivering not just a meal, but an entire dining experience like you’ve never had before. The venue’s interiors are a lively mishmash of vibrant colours, eye-catching murals, and neon signage, transporting you straight to the heart of Latin America.

The space strikes the perfect balance between trendy and cosy, with funky touches like plant-filled corners and street-art graffiti on the walls, giving the restaurant a cool, laid-back atmosphere.

The crowd here is as eclectic as the menu — groups of friends gathering for after-work drinks, couples enjoying a date night, or families out for a weekend brunch. Whether you’re a foodie, a cocktail connoisseur, or just looking for a fun spot to catch up with friends, Cheeky Chicos has something for everyone.

The music, a vibrant mix of reggaeton, salsa, and upbeat Latin rhythms, sets the perfect tone, giving the place an infectious energy that guarantees a good time. Leave your worries at the door and prepare yourself for a bit of fun chaos.

The menu is a celebration of Latin fusion, taking inspiration from Mexican, Peruvian, and other Latin American cuisines with a playful, modern twist. Expect bold flavours, fresh ingredients, and a few cheeky surprises. The star of the show is, of course, their tacos — served in sets of three, with fillings like slow-cooked beef short rib and feta, crispy tempura cod, soft-shell crab, or the popular vegetarian option of sweet and spicy crispy cauliflower.

For those looking to venture beyond tacos, the menu also features quesadillas, nachos loaded with guacamole and cheese, and hearty mains like the tuna ceviche or crispy red belly pork tostadas. They also have a range of nibbles to go alongside your main meal, like their epic guacamole with coriander, red onion, and lime, their jalapeño poppers stuffed with cream cheese, mini chorizo bites, and the traditional side dish of elotes (grilled corn coated in parmesan cheese, mayo with lime and tajin).

Cheeky Chicos takes happy hour to the next level, offering some of the most delicious and affordable cocktails in the area. Sunday to Thursday from 5 to 7 PM, diners can enjoy a wide range of cocktails for £8 (or £32 for a pitcher!), including the ever-popular frozen margaritas, spicy picante, and zesty daiquiris.

Their cocktails are known for their freshness and creativity, with many incorporating classic Latin American spirits and flavours. If you’re a tequila or rum enthusiast, this is the place to indulge!

Calling all bottomless brunch fans – Cheeky Chicos has one of the best weekend deals in London! For £40 per person, you’ll be treated to a 2-course meal and  an unlimited  Prosecco, mimosas,  bloody Mary’s, or bottled beers for 90-minutes.

Their brunch menu features a tantalising selection of dishes like the full Mexican breakfast with chorizo, mushrooms, pico de gallo salsa, guacamole, black beans, hash brown, egg, toasted bread, or the fried chicken and Belgian waffle with crispy bacon, agave sriracha sauce. The vibes during brunch are lively, with a party-like atmosphere that often gets diners dancing in their seats by the end of brunch. It’s the perfect way to start a big weekend!

Whether you’re popping in for a quick taco fix, meeting friends for happy hour, or indulging in a weekend brunch blowout, Cheeky Chicos Elephant Park is your go-to spot. With its unbeatable atmosphere, delicious fusion cuisine, and an extensive cocktail menu that rivals any in the city, this is one London hotspot you’ll want to visit again and again.
