Own Sydney's Next Hecho En Mexico - Crown Street Surry Hills

The site every new franchisee wishes they could start with.

Hecho En Mexico, Australia's leading full-service Mexican restaurant and bar franchise with 31 locations across six states and territories, is opening in Surry Hills - and this is no cold start.

379 Crown Street has operated as a successful Mexican restaurant on one of Sydney's most recognised dining strips. The commercial kitchen, exhaust, bar, cool rooms and approximately 126 seats (100 inside, 26 footpath) are already in place. This is a brand conversion opportunity, not a construction project.

Surry Hills offers one of Sydney's strongest dining catchments, with 15,800 residents, above-average household incomes, a professional demographic, and high foot traffic from nearby Central Station, Tech Central and Oxford Street.

Established in 2013, Hecho En Mexico has built a proven franchise model with 4.7 stars across 7,000+ reviews, centralised production, franchise training, a 31K-follower social presence, Bottomless Brunch 2.0, and a retail range stocked in approximately 800 Coles stores.

Key highlights:
* New 5-year lease + 5-year option from 1 July 2026
* First 3 months rent-free
* Fully fitted and licensed premises
* Significant saving vs a $1.2M+ new build
* Existing trading history and financials available under NDA



Sydney has four Hecho locations compared with Melbourne's twenty-one, creating a rare opportunity for an early mover.

Target opening: early FY27.
