Benito’s Hat to open first site beyond London in Oxford next week


Benito’s Hat is opening its first outlet outside of London in Oxford on 24 October in the newly refurbished Westgate Social Shopping Centre.

Benito’s will be serving up its world-famous burritos, as well as launching several new culinary treats, all made on site using authentic Mexican recipes.

For the first time, Benito’s is introducing their El Presidente Burrito to the full-day menu – a particularly drool-worthy burrito stuffed with a trio of pork, beef and chicken and guac’d up to perfection.

Hat Trick Tacos also make a welcome addition to the Oxford day menu – 3 soft tacos, one filled with achiote chicken, one with beef brisket barbacoa, and one with balsamic braised pork.

Customers will also find quesadillas, hand-cut tortilla chips prepared fresh in the kitchen every day, fresh guacamole, made with hass-avocadoes, esquites (sweetcorn with feta & oregano), chipotle coleslaw, and to finish it all off, get stuck into tres leches (three milk) cake, with vanilla and cinnamon or crunchy churros and chocolate.

Children will be able to get a taste for authentic Mexican food too, with appropriately sized taco and quesadilla options, as well as a choice of apple or orange juice, and Jude’s ice cream for dessert!

For beverages, there will be Benito’s classic frozen Margaritas and a range of Mexican beer. There will also be soft drinks and homemade Agua Frescas like Limeade, Hibiscus & Horchata, as well as locally roasted filter coffee.

Benito’s Hat looks after all of those with food preferences and allergies extremely well with gluten-free corn tacos and a large range of vegetarian and vegan options available all day, every day.
