Great tortillas! The flavour of the soft tortillas brought me back to Mexico. The tacos had a good spicy kick to them and a really good flavour. Loved the ambience and the music. Service pretty attentive and laid back. Lovely overall. The only negative bit is the price.. tacos are 5£ each so to have a good amount of food it would come around 20£ per person without touching any alcohol or specific drinks but tap water.. I would come back surely for a nice vibe and some sharing plates with friends or for a laid back dinner for two.

As an American living in London, I've heard that good Mexican cuisine is hard to come by. I'm lucky to have heard that Taco Queen was a pleasant surprise, and I'm kicking myself for not coming here sooner.
Let me start by saying that even though I've lived in LA and New York where good food is widely accessible, I've never thought of Mexican food as one of my favorite cuisines. This has all changed after eating at Taco Queen -- perhaps it's because I now crave something that isn't super available in the UK, or maybe Taco Queen was THAT. GOOD.
I came in with super high expectations and I was still absolutely blown away. It was a great vibe, they were super cool with the fact that we had a baby with us, service was great and as quick as it could have been considering the place was packed. We were smart to make a reservation as many people tried to walk in and there were not tables available.
The margaritas were made fresh, and dare I say, better than what I make at home! This is huge for somebody who thinks very highly of their own margarita skills. We also ordered the pork mulitas, baja fish taco, fried chicken taco, and short rib taco. Everything was absolutely delicious. We truly could not decide what dish we liked best.
The only downfall for me was the price of the margarita for what you actually get. But let's face it, I'm still going to order 1-2 margaritas with this fantastic food no matter how much they are, especially because the margaritas were still SO. GOOD.
Ok g2g make reservations for Taco Queen again so I can try more of this fantastic food!
The best soft Tacos I’ve ever had in my life! Super filling food, ideal for sharing/ mixing and matching. We had the nachos, pork, beef and chicken taco’s, everything was affordable, flavourful and colourful. We went on a Sunday night and it was pretty full but the staff found space for us almost immediately. We were served by Santos and they were so lovely and accommodating. Honestly Peckham’s best kept secret and new favourite spot.
Paprika Fries Portion is pretty huge as are the individual tacos, I would attack them with a fork first next time as the portions are again pretty big! Great place for a quick bite though and pretty cheap too. 3 tacos and chips to share with tip was like £15-£16. Good vegetarian options too.
So delicious, great price, friendly staff and loads of options for vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. Sometimes there is a wait, but totally worth it. Lunch specials are great value! Peckham beers on tap and cocktails with a heavy tequila/mezcal vibe. Some in-house agua frescas too!
Cute place to pop in and enjoy tacos. We tried Baja Fish and Battered Avocado Tacos, both very good. Kimchi and Cheese Multias (bit like a quesadilla) was better than I thought it would be. The Jackfruit Arepa okay (wasn't my favourite). Thought the tacos were worth investigating if you are in Peckham. The service was very friendly.
Best taco place in town! Amazing cosy taco place, they cook everything in front of you, everything is fresh! £6 for two tacos and a drink for lunch times. Great value for money; personal favourite taco is the fish taco and the fried chicken taco :)
Went here for lunch on a Friday, wasn’t too busy but still had a nice atmosphere. The service was really friendly and the guy working there actually gave us useful advice that didn’t feel like he was trying to sell us the whole menu. We got a taco each and split an areba...perfect for two people, full for a tenner. I’d also really recommend the Jamaican drink 👌🏼. Also loads of gluten free and vegan and vegetarian options. Can’t wait to go back!
I love Taco Queen because their vegan Tacos are by far the best I've ever had - by a very very wide margin. Cornflake battered avocado tacos plus the tofu version is the order of the day. Staff are always cool and friendly plus there's always Four Pure on tap at the bar. They regularly sell out early due to demand so don't leave it too late. Also, if you see me in the line ahead of you it's already too late - I've ordered everything.
Nice ambience and the food was amazing!!! We had two tacos and shared some nachos and left feeling so full! Also had a really refreshing Hibiscus cooler 👌🏼 I really like it when Places do a thoughtful non alcoholic drink selection. The staff were amazing and accommodated my intolerances, very stress free meal!
The taco's from Taco queen never disappoint! The menu isn't extensive but each dish is cooked to perfection. The options are great whether you are veggie/vegan or not.
Really good wacamole and try the areas with pulled pork! Everything I tried is just spot on. And do not forget the dessert the ice sandwich is handmade and it just from another world.
Such a great spot, so reasonably priced, great non alcoholic drink options and staff are absolutely lovely!
We had a 30th birthday here, the birthday girl is a vegan and this is one of her favourite places. All 6 of us enjoyed the food, the drinks were appropriate for this style of food. The staff and service was faultless. A birthday evening enjoyed by us all.
Thank you guy's.
Thanks for being on point!
Staff was supper attentive to my avocado allergy, explaining where traces of avocado, like avocado leaves was within the dishes.
Cross checking with the chef and providing alternative options, which allowed me to enjoy their delicious vegan menu!
I love this place, lots of gluten-free options. My favorite one is the fried chicken taco 😍
Really delicious food, good vegan options too and super friendly and welcoming staff
The waitress who served us was absolutely lovely, really friendly and very attentive. The food is unreal, so so delicious! Reasonably priced, £34 for my food and 2 cocktails (including 12.5% service) Left feeling very full!
and the vegan options were all so good
No faults, 5*s very well deserved!
