Mexican Grocery Shops in London, Area by Area

Mexican ingredients in London are not concentrated in one quarter. They sit in Latin American supermarkets around Elephant & Castle, in covered-market units in Brixton and Peckham, at spice counters in Borough Market and Notting Hill, in Camden and Chelsea shopfronts, and in warehouses in Leyton and Sutton that post nationwide.

This article maps the shops in our US directory area by area. It is a listing, not a ranking: we have not shopped at, tested or inspected any of these businesses, and everything below comes from the directory entry for that shop.

How this listing works

Our directory maps shops; it does not grade them. The notes above describe what each business says it stocks, and independent grocers restock unevenly, so ring ahead for anything specific — a particular dried chile, fresh masa, frozen tortillas. If a shop has moved, closed or changed its hours, use the report link on its directory page and we will update the entry.

Once the cupboard is stocked, the cooking is the easy part. Nixtamalized maize flour becomes handmade maize tortillas, dried chiles become salsa macha or chile de árbol salsa, and canned chipotles turn into tinga quesadillas. Our guide to Mexican chiles available in the US explains what you are buying when a label says smoked jalapeño.
