Seperate vegan menu

I love that there is a seperate menu.
We had a great evening, sitting outside on a balmy evening. We ordered from our phone and enjoyed all of the food brought out to us. The mushroom taco, to me, was the standout. But the corn was also delicious.

Unimpressed

Great that they have a separate vegan menu. Worth noting : The chips on the vegan menu are cooked using the same fryer as everything else (for those who care about this as I do).
My friend ordered them (before we knew about the same fryer business) and they are meant to come with jalapeños but came with nothing but a side sauce. The cost of their bowl of chips is outrageous at $13! Thought it would be a bit of a “special type of chip wrapped in gold leaf” so my friend was pretty disappointed to get a plain bowl of chips at that price. Can’t say I’m enamoured by the food here at all. My burrito was ok, rather tasteless, but ok. The taco was ok too, but teeny for the price.

Things are way too pricey for their value.

Pros: Vegan menu

Cons: Pricey

The happycow description clearly mentions that deep fried items are cooked in a non-vegan deep fryer.

Fresco

#4 Jan 2020: Nachos and Mushroom enchilada. The take away nachos now unfortunately come sans salsa & guac, with the salsa & guac traveling in multiple plastic containers wrapped in cling wrap. Put the salsa & guac on the nachos next time Paco you dillberry.

#3 Jan 2020: Black bean burrito and Mushroom enchilada. Both very good (even an hour and a half after taking away), I especially enjoyed the enchilada, spicy little [censored] though.
Happy to be asked if I wanted take away cutlery, because I enjoy saying no.

Fresh ingredients & vibrant flavours in both the Burrito & Nachos, both of similar size & price to other Mexican eateries.

The chips & churros that are listed on the vegan menu are cooked in a deep fryer that also cooks body parts. Paco's Tacos have been contacted about this, hopefully this is something that they will change.

Decent Vegan Mexican

On my most recent visit I had the enchilada and it was surprising large and very tasty. At under $15, it's good value and a filling meal.
..........

The burrito is better than most; good to see the inclusion of rice in the filling.

The nachos are a fresher, less stodgy version most would be accustomed to and quite enjoyable but may be better as a shared starter.

Will return at some point to try the enchilada.

Great flavours!

Pacos tacos have so many vegan options and they are all delicious! Best part is that they are reasonably priced and very filling! Highly recommend!
