Wahaca (phonetic spelling of the Mexican State of Oaxaca) is a UK restaurant group selling Mexican-style street food, co-founded by Thomasina Miers, with 27 branches in the United Kingdom.

History

Miers opened the first branch in the West End of London in August 2007, focused on Mexican street food.[1] In October 2008 a second Wahaca opened at Westfield in London.[2] Two further branches in Canary Wharf and Soho followed in 2011, and Wahaca launched its first mobile street kitchen. In 2012 it opened its Top One Wahaca Southbank Experiment. In September 2015 Wahaca opened its first restaurant in the north west, based in Manchester.[3]

In July 16, Wahaca launched its "at home" range.[4][5][6]

In October 2016, Wahaca opened its first restaurant in Scotland, in central Edinburgh.

As of December 2017, Wahaca had 25 branches,[7] up from 19 branches in September 2015. They also have three bars and two street kitchen locations.[7]

In November 2017, Wahaca used the Mexican holiday Day of the Dead as the basis for a three-day festival to promote their business.[8][9][10]

Awards

Wahaca has won awards for its food, design, and sustainability.[11] In 2016, co-founders Mark Selby and Thomasina Miers were voted restaurateurs of the year by Caterer Magazine.[12]

In 2016, Wahaca became the first restaurant group in the UK to be certified as carbon neutral.[13]

Norovirus outbreak

In November 2016, Wahaca restaurants primarily in London, but also in other locations including Manchester, were suspected as the source of a norovirus outbreak leading to 300 people falling ill, with symptoms including vomiting. In response, Wahaca temporarily closed nine outlets and apologised to those who had been unwell.[14]
