Inside Elote Tacos — warm, relaxed Mexican cantina
Our Story

A love letter to Mexico

The beginning

Drawn from many trips to the USA & Mexico

Our inspiration and passion is drawn from many trips to the USA and Mexico, forming a love of the cuisine and a deep admiration towards the culture and its people.

We came home wanting to share it — the smoky taquerias, the late-night elote carts, the generosity of the people who cook them. Elote Tacos is our way of bringing that warmth to Gloucester.

A staple Mexican street food

Grilled corn on the cob topped with tangy, creamy sauce, crumbled cotija sheep cheese, coriander, tomatillo salsa & lime. It's the spirit of the street — simple, generous and full of flavour — and it gave us our name.

Our approach

Authentic, by the ingredient

We celebrate a menu true to Mexican cuisine — sourcing the right ingredients so every plate tastes the way it should.

Specialist ingredients

Bought direct from Mexican grocers to provide an authentic insight — the same salsas, chillies and tortillas you'd find in homes and restaurants across Mexico.

Local suppliers

Our meat and vegetables come from the highest regarded suppliers within the county — fresh, trusted and on our doorstep.

Cooked with care

Slow-smoked brisket, charred corn, cured fish — traditional techniques, no shortcuts, bursting with the flavours of Mexico.
