Opening on Milledge Avenue in 1977, The Taco Stand has been an Athens staple since its inception. It is known by Athenians as a place of community and a melting-pot of all Athens residents, from students to locals.

The Taco Stand still serves all of their original recipes in their original building, and the establishment has been known for providing delicious Mexican cuisine which can satisfy anyone’s craving! You can enjoy a meal here any day from 11:00am-9:00pm.

Eastside location is OPEN thanks for your concern!

We are so touched by everyone’s concern over our building being torn down. We are open and serving! Our old location at the end of our strip was torn down and they are doing work on our awning. We hope to continue to operate while work is being done but we apologize for any work trucks blocking our door
I also want to extend a huge thank you to all of our customers for keeping us in business
The regulars who come in twice a week (or twice a day!), the friends or relatives who have to stop by first thing when they get in town, the parent grabbing food for their whole family or the one picking up a special meal just for their kid, the group that meets up without fail every week and end up chatting for hours, you know who you are!
We love you and we are so grateful for you!
We have seen so many restaurant closures that really hurt and we personally know restaurant business is not easy but seeing your beautiful faces every week literally keeps us going
We are so happy to be a part of what keeps Athens so special
Please remember to support local this week, this month and this year
Love ya❤️

The Milledge Ave location will be closed Tuesday through Thursday so our staff can spend time with family. We’ll be back open 11am on Friday. Have a great Thanksgiving everyone! We ❤️ Athens!

Happy Halloween to all you wild ( ) animals!
Athens sure knows how to do it right 🎃👻🩷
