Taco ‘Bout a Deal! Laredo Taco Company Unveils Spicy New Menu and Dollar Deals for Cinco de Mayo
7-Eleven’s fan-favorite authentic Mexican quick-service restaurant, Laredo Taco Company, is gearing up for a major Cinco de Mayo celebration. In a move to bring high-quality “festive eats” and “big value” to commuters and neighborhood regulars alike, the brand has announced a limited-time menu refresh and a series of deep discounts aimed at making the holiday affordable for everyone.
Known for its handmade tortillas and fresh-cracked eggs, Laredo Taco Company is stepping away from the standard convenience store fare to offer a truly festive experience that honors the spirit of the holiday.
The Headliner: The New Pork Carnitas Taco
The star of this year’s celebration is the brand-new Pork Carnitas Taco. Designed to bring a taste of traditional Mexican street food to the 7-Eleven storefront, the taco features tender, slow-cooked pork carnitas seasoned with a blend of citrus and savory spices.
True to the Laredo Taco Company promise, each taco is served on a flour tortilla made from scratch in-house throughout the day. To finish it off, customers are encouraged to visit the signature Salsa Bar to customize their meal with fresh cilantro, onions, and a variety of house-made picante salsas.
Dollar Deals and Big Value
Recognizing that fans are looking for ways to celebrate without breaking the bank, 7-Eleven is rolling out a “Cinco for All” value strategy. On May 5, customers can take advantage of:
- $1 Tacos: Select fan-favorite tacos will be available for just one dollar at participating Laredo Taco Company locations.
- 7Rewards Exclusives: Members of the 7Rewards and Speedy Rewards programs will find exclusive digital coupons in their apps, including “Buy One, Get One” offers on the new Pork Carnitas Taco.
- Family Meal Deals: For those celebrating at home, the brand is offering discounted family packs that include bulk servings of meat, beans, rice, and a dozen handmade tortillas.
Why It Matters
The expansion of Laredo Taco Company within 7-Eleven and Speedway locations has been a key part of the retailer's “fresh food” evolution. By offering authentic, handmade meals, 7-Eleven is successfully competing with traditional fast-casual restaurants.
“Cinco de Mayo is about coming together to celebrate culture and great food,” said a spokesperson for 7-Eleven, Inc. “We wanted to ensure our customers could find that authenticity and festive spirit right around the corner, at a price point that allows the whole family to join in.”
Where to Find the Party
The Pork Carnitas Taco is available now at participating Laredo Taco Company locations for a limited time. The special dollar deals and app-exclusive rewards will be live through the Cinco de Mayo weekend.
Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch during your commute or picking up dinner for a backyard fiesta, the message from Laredo Taco Company is clear: you don’t need a reservation at a fancy restaurant to have a great Cinco de Mayo. Just look for the handmade tortillas.
