From day one, we challenged ourselves to minimise our environmental impact. We were the first UK restaurant group certified Carbon Neutral and are proud members of Food Made Good, we have been crowned most sustainable restaurant group three times!
We’re pretty proud of our sustainable approach to the environment, sourcing and society. We make fresh, vibrant, Mexican-inspired street food that doesn’t cost the earth.
LEAN, GREEN, TACO MACHINE
We are carbon neutral!
We take lots of steps to minimise the resources we use across our restaurants, from the initial build, to using heat produced by our fridges to heat our water! To be completely carbon neutral we also offset our unavoidable energy use, by supporting some pretty amazing projects out in Mexico.
STRAIGHT TO THE SOURCE
We can all have a positive impact on the planet simply through the food we choose to eat.
Our menu is over 50% veg, we champion our great British suppliers and we add seasonal specials to the menu throughout the year. We use British free-range chicken and pork, grass-fed beef and sustainable fish, to make sure our dishes featuring meat are delicious and better for the planet too.
Our supply chain has been impacted by Covid-19, meaning we can’t always get hold of our exact specification for our ingredients, however we always do our best to source the next best alternative.
ONE BIG FAMILEE
People are at the heart of Wahaca. From our founders Tommi & Mark, to the people of Oaxaca in Mexico, our teams in our restaurants and of course our customers too.
We take a whole lot of inspiration from all of them and do our best to give a whole lot of inspiration back through projects and charities, especially to inspire the next generation.
