Christmas at Little Fires

Skip the turkey. This December your table fills with award-winning tacos and sharing plates from Pretty Boy Tacos, cooked in the open kitchen a few steps from your seat. There is vinyl on the hi-fi, one of East London's deepest agave lists behind the bar, and a hidden lounge downstairs for when dinner turns into a night.

Tell us the date and how many you are. We come back within one working day with a proposal, then look after everything else.

Four ways to do it

The long table
8 to 20 guests. A sharing feast in the middle of the restaurant, with the kitchen in full view.

The reserved area
Up to 35 guests, seated. Your own section of the restaurant for the evening. Minimum spend from £600.

The Listening Lounge
Up to 60 guests. A private basement with its own bar, DJ booth and Funktion One sound. Minimum spend £4,500.

The whole venue
85 seated or 100 standing. Both floors and the terrace, yours for the night. Minimum spend £7,500.

Minimum spends count everything you eat and drink. A 12.5% service charge is added.

On the table

Pretty Boy Tacos, Tacover People's Award winners 2026, cook everything to share. Mole mutton, Baja fish, cochinita pibil and achiote chicken tacos, scallop aguachile, esquites, and plates that keep arriving until the table gives in.

Vegetarian and vegan menus sit alongside. Tell us about allergies when you enquire and the kitchen plans around them.

After dinner

Downstairs, The Listening Lounge runs on vinyl and a Funktion One system. Take it privately for your party, or head down after dinner on Fridays and Saturdays, when it stays open late.
