About This Pub
So, if you're popping into Paisley and fancy a spot for some cracking Mexican-style grub and a drink or two, La Mesa is definitely one to consider – it's got that welcoming feel right from the off. From what I've seen, the food is spot on, with fresh tacos and nachos that leave you wanting more, and they've really nailed the drinks menu with options for everyone, including those going alcohol-free or keeping things veggie-friendly. The team there are an absolute treat, always up for a chat and making sure you're looked after. On the flip side, it's not the cheapest place around, so you might feel the pinch if you're just after a quick lunch, and some of the dishes can get a bit messy, which is fun but not always practical. Overall, with solid ratings and positive vibes from folks who've been, it's a great shout for a relaxed night out, as long as you're prepared for the odd downside – I'd say give it a go if you're in the area!

Food freshly cooked, waitress was great. Lovely decor. Delicious nachos and tacos. Would def recommend and will be back for sure. Price was more than I expected for lunch but I'm happy to pay for quality. We both loved it. Thank you
Saturday night and came in for food and drinks.
Menu has all your favourites and everything was cooked well. I went for the tacos and halloumi food fries. Hit the spot and very filling. Good selection of drinks and a good specials list.
Recommmended if you are in the area.
Really nice (but very messy) Mexican fare, barbacoa tostadas were heaped and the chicken tacos were lovely and fresh, a tad overpriced but not outrageous, cocktails were very nice, spicy marg was the best, we were in early on a Friday evening and it was quiet but it was filling up as we were leaving, great service, worth a visit 👍
Delicious food, fantastic service and so many vegetarian and vegan options which id brilliant. Most of the margaritas and cocktails can be made alcohol free too. Definitely recommend.
Lovely food and cocktails. A little on the pricey side but would say the food is well worth it.
Staff were friendly and very attentive, more than happy to help, explain the menu and have a laugh with us.
Cocktails were lovely and food was delicious.
Loved the hot sauce bar. Will definitely be back!
