Banging. Visited during restaurant week when deals were on, however price of tacos is very affordable and worth it for the portion size. OBVIOUSLY a wide range of options for veggies! Between the two of us we ordered 6 tacos, our favourite being the Pastor and Banana. Corn ribs and nachos obviously a must. Will return!

I was staying nearby and having walked past Cantina a couple of times, I was tempted in by the amazing looking Mexican food I could see through the window. So in I go, speak to the lovely bird up the ramp, she shows me to a seat and makes me feel at home. And that’s when it happened. The error. An oversight if you will. But a problem nonetheless. She tells me it’s vegan. My naturally smiley disposition breaks. I’m in trouble here. I’ve sat down, we’ve had a good chat, I’m in too deep. How can I, an avid meat eater, stay and eat… vegan food? Now I’m panicking. Well I make a deal with myself. Luckily the tacos are only four quid a plate. So I’ll order a couple, push them about a bit and then make my excuses and leave, less than a tenner down. I order one “chorizo” and one “chicken”, to not look to inconspicuous, like. After a few minutes, the food comes over. And it looks like….normal tacos. So I give the “chorizo” one a bite. Oh. This ain’t bad. I’ll have another bite. Not only is this not bad, it’s pretty good. Bite three. Not only is this good, it’s bloody excellent. I crack on with the chicken taco. It’s better than the chorizo one. What the bladdy eck!!! So now, the meat eater who was too much of a ninny to walk out is cracking through the tastiest tacos I’ve eaten (meat or not) in yonks. Honestly, the flavours are pinging about me mouth like a pack of tangtastics. Seriously, there was not a scrap left on my plate these tacos were so tasty. So there it is. I made a mistake going here. You’d make a mistake NOT going here. Signed, the biggest meat eater in the UK. I just put nine girls in a sprinter.

After a couple of years of pop-ups and market appearances, great to see Cantina open up in permanent premises on the Quayside, inside Zerox bar. Delicious food, a cool venue, authentic Mexican flavours and great varieties of tacos and tortas (sandwiches). All the food is plant-based but non-vegans will love it too. Get a loyalty card, as you'll be back for more!

10/10 food and atmosphere! The food was out of this world (as it always is!) - the venue is such a vibe as well. The art and big windows just give amazing holiday vibes! Warm and welcoming as well! Can’t recommend enough 😍

Next to Zerox on the quayside in Newcastle, the location is unbeatable. There is a wonderful relaxed vibe that you can settle into while sipping on cooled beers , cocktails or whatever. I'm not vegetarian, however the plant based Tacos were simply out of this world and cheaper than chips!!! A must visit while meandering along the quayside. Absolutely loved it.

Food is generally good, although they do sometimes mix orders resulting in literally a 'mixed bag' of food. Where this place let's it down is service, there seems to be nobody who is in charge and the
