Feel like mexican? I absolutely suggest this place! 🌮
All that is on the menu, is amazingly cooked & served.. ✨ so I’ve already planned my next weekend here..
Fast good food. This is the answer to quick station food we have all been looking for. No more processed fast food. The Burritos are put together in front of you with a variety of different meats and vegetables.Â
I always have a burrito with chicken and pork topped with pretty much everything and a margarita (if I am not on the way to work).Â
The staff are always super smiley too which is normally what you need after a long journey on any train.
Ordered a small burrito. It came with a small portion of tortilla chips. It was tasty and filling. I thought it was a good portion for its price. Also after the meal, i got a small cappuccino and a chocolate chip cookie for 2.50 pounds, which I thought was a good deal for a complete dessert! So overall, i think i spent less than 10 pounds and got a more casual "2-course" meal. ;^) staff really friendly as well!
I am Mexican. And I really enjoyed eating here. The guacamole is legit. The service is really good, and the price is actually nice and affordable. They have vegan options which is great but these need more "meat-like" texture to get that taco's feels.
Perfect burritos, friendly customer service, no holding back on portion size and with a loyalty card, numerous sites across London it's the best burrito place I know. The pork is truly outstanding and for someone who doesn't enjoy hot food I always go here because they will it with so much more flavour that just pepper. This store is ideally placed to grab a quick burrito to take away or eat in their plaza underneath the beautiful Kings Cross roof with a clear view of the train information board.
Good Mexican burritos, i find this is a really good place next to the station for people who want to have a good typical Mexican lunch. The burrito are quite big, they can be spicy if you want, but take care how much spice you want. Not expensive at all.
The rice and grilled chicken is what I ordered and believe me it was tastiest to the core. Every bit of penny I spent seemed recovered and was more than enough for one person’s meal. Price wise it was decent enough because the quality is more than what I expected. Their Chia prep is what is next in my list.
A little pricey for 'fast food' but good value for you money and one of the most best Mexican eateries I've seen outside Southern California.
Unlike many British Mexican restaurants, this is Mex-Mex not Tex-Mex. Remember this is on a railway station concourse so there is no Mexican ambiance
If I had to describe it in just a few words ... What Subway I'd to sandwiches, Benito's Hat is to Burritos, Tacos and Nachos. Decent beer too
I liked it because it has waited tables unlike some of the KX eateries. Basic Italian food, tasty, London prices. Not fine dining but that is not the intended audience, it was good enough for me.
Maybe not the best burrito in the world, but certainly of a decent standard, and without a doubt a marked improvement on the usual rubbish you get in stations. It's on the mezzanine level, and there's a very pleasant seating area "outside" from which you get a nice view of the interesting interior of Kings Cross.
Nice little Mexican restaurant. I've been there with some friends and the selection of food although not great was really tasty and the prices ok. Unluckily some of the drinks in the menu are not available anymore (like some varities of margarita). The style of the restaurant is peculiar, but be aware that is not really big so you might need to book.

I'm a southern California, my wife is Mexican, and this is the best burrito we have eaten so far while living in this country. Back home it'd be run of the mill, but here it is an oasis of flavor in a desert of spiceless meat and potatoes.
Real and good Mexican Food. The best and bigger burrito that I have never eaten. The stuff is especially nice. Congratulations to the Spaniards that work in there. Really good food, people and ambient.
The burritos at Benito's are always so good - deffo my fave! The ability to customise what you want and what you don't is really useful :) I always tend to go for a version of chicken with cheese and no salad!
Review for their newest addition to the Benito's Hat family - Leadenhall Street:
We got a warm welcome as usual from the Benito’s Hat team and friendly service.
Good chunks of steak in the burritos. They have even thought about desserts on the go (new additions to the menu) – the bunuelos are their take on the traditional cinnamon churros, and the chocolate galletes have a intense cocoa hit followed by chilli and then a lovely warming after note of cinnamon lingering on your palate.
Loving the new additions to the menu, especially on the dessert front.
This Mexican restaurant is the best restaurant I have been to in my life. The food was delicious and the staff there were helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for those waiting to catch a train to their final destination.
Same epic burritos as the other branches, plus tacos, tortilla chips, jaritos etc. Amazing braised pork and genuinely spicy salsa. Possibly the best burrito in London.
Utterly delicious food. I always go out of my way to eat at Benito's hat each time I'm in London, and I am never disappointed. I enthusiastically recommend them to anyone.
