Poko Loko

Poko Loko brings a bright bolt of Mexican spirit to the heart of Merchant City.

Conceived by a crew of Glasgow hospitality hands and seasoned travellers, it channels a shared affection for Mexico’s food and culture into an immersive, good‑time hangout. The mood is vibrant, the welcome warm, and the promise simple: bold flavours, easy conviviality, and a glass raised to the art of tequila.

The menu tells its story in generous, crowd‑pleasing strokes. Bowls of guacamole and piled‑high nachos set the tone for grazing and sharing, while chicken tinga and pulled beef appear as juicy centrepieces across tacos, burritos and loaded fries.

A house favourite, Mexican fried chicken arrives in a buttermilk crunch, dusted with loko spices and lifted by hot honey chipotle mayo, coriander and fresh red chillies. Classic sides of Oaxaca beans and Mexican rice keep things soulful, and churros or ice creams draw a sweet line under the feast.

It is lively without fuss, the kind of place that makes an evening stretch. Gather friends, follow the call of tacos and tequila, and let your next outing go pleasantly, deliciously loko.
