Condado Tacos, the Columbus, Ohio-based taco joint with a reputation for bold flavors and vibrant atmospheres, has announced the opening of its 50th location at Lower.com Field, the home of the Columbus Crew, the three-time and reigning Major League Soccer champions.
Set to open in time for the season home opener on February 24, Condado Tacos will bring its unique culture and craveable tacos to the stadium experience with a special menu featuring a curated selection of margs, beers, and signature menu items. The restaurant will replace The Pub at the stadium's southeast entrance, giving soccer fans a vibrant and delightful space ideal for game-day excitement.
"We are delighted to bring the Condado experience to Lower.com Field. Our roots are in Columbus, and we see a fantastic opportunity to connect with the passionate Crew fan base," said Sara Kear, Chief Marketing Officer of Condado Tacos. "This location is not just about great food and drinks; it's about creating memorable moments for fans who share our love for sports, community, and quality experiences."
In July 2021, Lower.com Field officially debuted as the home of the Columbus Crew and has been recognized by multiple industry experts as one of the top sports and entertainment venues. During last year's championship season, the Crew welcomed capacity crowds for 18 MLS matches and 17 consecutive to complete the season, capped by a venue-record 20,802 for the MLS Cup on December 9. The Club's previous season-long franchise bests for those categories were seven and four matches, respectively.
Crew Vice President of Corporate Partnerships, Justin Younghans, added Condado Tacos is an ideal partner for the Crew based on their shared local connection, energetic atmospheres and dedication to high-quality food and service for all patrons.
"Condado Tacos started in Columbus and has expanded across the nation, and it's incredible to have them become a key element at Lower.com Field as their restaurants, our Club and our city continue to experience tremendous growth and success," said Younghans. "We are dedicated to engaging local partners who are passionate about our region and our sport. Condado Tacos embodies those values while providing supporters exciting new food and drink offerings in a lively atmosphere that matches our in-stadium experience."
