About The Taco Stop in Fort Collins
The Taco Stop is a favorite amongst all Fort Collins residents. Cesar grew up in Mexico City and their other founder, Berenice Longoria was raised in Texas.
Their story is inspiring. The founders started the Taco Stop food truck in 2012, and grew into a restaurant and bar in 2020. The Taco Stop then overcame challenges from the pandemic and their business continues to thrive.
