Brixton, get ready—Arepa & Co is landing in Brixton Market this February, and if you haven’t had the pleasure of diving into authentic Venezuelan cuisine, now’s your chance.
Expect rich, hearty dishes that pack a serious punch of flavour.
Let’s start with the obvious—arepas. These golden cornbread pockets are loaded with everything from slow-cooked beef to plantains and avocado, bringing a perfect balance of texture and taste. But it doesn’t stop there. The menu is stacked with hearty bowls, sweet and savoury cachapas (corn pancakes), crispy tequeños, and dirty yuca fries—all designed to hit the spot.
And if you’ve got room for dessert, their Tres Leches cake is the kind of sweet indulgence you won’t want to share.
Founded by husband-and-wife duo Gus and Kathe, Arepa & Co started as a love letter to their home country’s flavours. With locations already thriving in Haggerston, Bethnal Green, and Stockwell, their next stop is Brixton, bringing warm hospitality and seriously good food to the mix.
The doors are set to open in just a few weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for big Venezuelan flavours making their mark on Brixton Market. This is one opening you won’t want to miss.
Location: Coldharbour Ln, London SW9 8PS (Brixton Village)
When: February
