About Cantina Mexicana
Cantina Mexicana is a laid-back, colourful cantina tucked in Holland Village that brings Mexican street flavours to a Singapore neighbourhood setting. The fit-out is casual — bright tiles, wooden tables and a small cocktail bar — perfect for a neighbourhood dinner or relaxed weekend brunch. Expect a mix of young professionals, expats and families from the nearby heartland and Holland Village MRT area.
The menu centres on tacos, tortas and grilled meats with a lively drinks list of margaritas and mezcal cocktails; portions are made for sharing, so it’s a good spot for group dinners or after-work drinks. While it isn’t a hawker stall, Cantina Mexicana sits comfortably within Singapore’s diverse dining scene — neighbouring cafes, kopitiams and late-night bars — and offers an approachable alternative to CBD lunch spots and the classic supper places. Locals drop by for quick weekday lunches, weekend gatherings, casual date nights and late-night tacos when the supper crowd rolls in.
