CALEXICO

BEST FOR A taste of the Americas. FOOD Expect a concise menu from fresh, seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. Sink your teeth into a plate of nachos with salsa and smashed avo, or go for the tortilla chips with a hot artichoke-and-jalapeño dip. You’ll find an impressive double bourbon cheeseburger comprising two juicy patties and a double serving of melted mozzarella. Serious carnivores will delight in sticky ribs in a home-made barbecue sauce, chipotle rotisserie chicken or chimichurri dry-aged sirloin steak. For vegetarians, there’s a barbecue wild mushroom skewer or a side of comforting mac and cheese. End with chocolate brownies or apple pie. DRINKS Beers and cider on tap, bubbles by Miss Molly and six solid white wine and red wine options.

SERVICE Charming and cheerful. AMBIENCE The space draws inspiration from California and Mexico.

Indoors, there’s a cosy fireplace; outside, a spacious deck for delicious summer days. (KK)
