From their £5 lunchtime burrito deal, to their authentic range of Mexican street food to share, it’s the most colourful place to stop for a bite around London Road.

Carlito Burrito Brighton – Sharing street food
Carlito Burrito does great burritos, but that’s not all they do. If you are happy to settle in for a bit and spend a little more money, the Mexican street food dishes to share are a fantastic way to sink your teeth into much more of this glorious cuisine. With everything from steak tacos, tostadas, quesadillas and ceviche to choose from you are going to need more than one visit to fully experience the menu.
Dishes not to be missed include the “back by popular demand” dish “Octopussy” or their “life changing” fish tacos. Be sure to leave enough room for dessert as the Mexican brownie is something to behold.
Carlito Burrito Brighton – Mexican cocktails and Mezcal
It’s hard not to drink at Carlito Burrito. There is such an amazing array of cocktails, Mexican craft beers and a dedicated Mezcales menu to boot. Mezcales is distilled from maguey, a species of agave plant and has a very meticulous method to it. If you have not tried Mezcal before then we can highly recommend the Mezcal tasting option of 4 shots for £16.50.

I go here with my Mexican friend and he assures me this place is the real deal. Burrito, negra models, tequila. What more could you ask for? Child friendly too
