The colourful Mexican cantina moves from the harbour to the courtyard.

The first day of March marks the first day of autumn, but when you're at El Loco, it's never not summer. So if you are a fan of spicy tortilla, colourful flags, icy margaritas, floral oilcloth, or general happiness, chase the ephemeral form of Sydney's favourite Mexican cantina to its new home in the Slip Inn courtyard.

If you made to the pop-up at Sydney’s Opera House, you’ll know the deal: kitschy decor, a killer snack menu featuring Dan Hong's, infamous tacos and cheese-drowned hot dogs, and a "secret taco" that always tends to increase in appeal as the bucket of Coronas diminishes. Everything is priced around the $6-10 mark, including a few additional items made exclusively for the CBD's brightest pop-up.

Between Wednesday and Saturday there will be live entertainment kicking on until last Coronas are called, which on weekends will be well after midnight.

El Loco at Slip Inn is located at 111 Sussex St, Sydney CBD and will be open Monday to Thursday from midday till midnight and Friday and Saturday from midday till late, until March 31.
