Me and my fiancé wait until Thursdays so we can grab a FRESH!!! Butrito or the tacos & the churros are BRILLIANT. We eat here at least twice a week, the food is ALWAYS TOP NOTCH... there's not enough stars to rate this & I live in Ilfracombe, I'd say this is the BEST place in town without a doubt

Whenever I come back to Ilfracombe to visit my parents me and my boyfriend always stop in here, the food is fantastic and the staff are brilliant! A welcome change from all of the cafes in town. Very reasonably priced too 😁

This without a doubt is one of the best places i have eaten in ilfracombe. The food was fresh, really tasty and really well priced. The customer service was exceptional and they let my child try some different tacos to find out if what we were ordering was too spicy. I really couldn't rate this place highly enough and it will become one of my regular lunch spots.

My wife and I stumbled across El Loco Cantina when we arrived at Ilfracombe for a few days break, and boy, are we glad we did! We called in for a spot of lunch, as the Cantina looked so different to the usual high street eateries. I tried the Ancho Chilli Beef Tacos, and my wife had Chicken Tinga. We both thought they were absolutely delicious. Following that we tried the Churros which were wonderful! We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will definitely be eating there again.

Just visited for dinner and very much enjoyed it. At our local Burrito place we wait nearly an hour for our meal - here it was ready and over within 5 minutes. Maybe the quality wasn't quite as great but it was still delicious and at a good price. The staff were very friendly too. Thanks.

We walked all the way back from the Ilfracombe Harbour to have a late lunch and boy, were we pleased that we waited to get to El Loco cantina! The burritos and tacos are amazing and the churros to die for. They also offer true Mexican soft drinks. My teenage daughter rated the meal 28 out of 10! We can't wait to go back and try the nachos, rice box and have more churros. The staff are really friendly and want to be there! They are passionate about Mexican street food. What a great find in Ilfracombe! DEFINITELY COMING BACK!

I’ve eat here twice now and it’s lovely. Food is excellent quality and I like the local chilli sauce they have on the tables. It’s quick food and tastes good at a reasonable price.

Really tasty food, lovely cocktails, friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. Great place to go for lunch or a quick meal before a night on the town. The churros would be perfect on a cold day as well.
