🌮 GLOBAL TACO DAY 🌮
As if we needed another excuse to eat tacos...
Global Taco Day is here on a Tuesday (which feels suspiciously convenient...) so we're celebrating the only way we know how: Taco Tuesday At Mexico.
Grab your Fried Chicken or Fried Cauliflower taco, pair it with one of our famous Margaritas (or a Mexican soda) and consider your contribution to this very important global occasion complete.
⏰ Available from 12pm til late.
It's the same Taco Tuesday you know and love, just with an internationally recognised excuse to get involved.

Come for the tacos, stay for the margs.
Except we all know that the margaritas were probably part of the plan all along...

Something spicy, something salty, and a table at Mexico. 🌶️🍸
Sounds pretty perfect to us.
Come hungry, order the marg, and see where the night goes.

There's something so special about our margaritas, specifically watching them come together behind the bar.
The shake, the pour, and the rainbow of different ones to choose from.
Our famous margaritas come in plenty of flavours, all made fresh and each with their own personality.
The only reasonable way to find your favourite? Work your way through the menu.
Which one's your go-to?

What we pour matters just as much as what we put on the plate.
Our Colab b**r is made just north of Auckland at their brewery in Warkworth, and you'll find it at Mexico both on tap and in cans.
Here we have a big focus on choosing drinks that taste great, are made well, and that we're genuinely happy to have on the menu.
Good b**r, made locally. It's a pretty easy decision really.

I don’t know about you, but as soon as someone mentions fried chicken and margaritas, we're there!🍸
It’s a combination that’s pretty hard to say no to.
Who’s with us?

Whoever said money can’t buy happiness clearly never spent it on tacos, margaritas and a night out with their favourite people. 🌮
14/09/2026
We all have our Mexico non-negotiables.
The mate who orders the same tacos every time. The one who says mild and still complains it’s spicy. And the one who won’t let the table order without guac.
So, what are you picking? Swipe through, choose your sides and let us know where you land 👇🌮

Not only is our Fried Chicken just $12… but Colab B**rs are only $10!

While the family are enjoying the parade, sneak in for a cold Colab b**r and some seriously good fried chicken.
B**r + Fried Chicken = the perfect parade escape.
See you there! Ellerslie Village
