How to plan a taco crawl: Short, Medium or Long

Every Taco Crawl route comes in three lengths, and you can add one more stop. Here is how to pick.

CrawlsHow to

Every crawl on Taco Crawl comes in three lengths. You pick the one that fits your group and your appetite.

The three lengths

  • Short: 3 stops. A couple of hours. Good for a first crawl or a weeknight.
  • Medium: about 5 stops. An afternoon. Bring friends and share.
  • Long: about 7 stops. A proper day out. It usually runs into the next area.

Switch between them at the top of any crawl page.

Add one more

Still hungry? Tap +1 stop. We add the nearest open independent taqueria to your last stop, within walking distance. You can undo it.

Independents first

Our crawls skip the big chains. Every stop is a taqueria we have checked is open.

Tips that help

  • One or two tacos per stop. Pace yourself.
  • Share plates. You try more that way.
  • Check the day. Some places close on Mondays or Tuesdays. Each crawl says the best day.
  • Dietary needs? Halal, vegan, vegetarian, gluten free and birria are all filters on the build your own crawl page.
