FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Some of the most frequently asked questions about our tacos and tees
TACOS
How hot is Fire Sauce?
We love a kick, but don’t worry—we’re not out to ruin your tastebuds. Fire Sauce is built on pickled jalapeños with a fermented blend of ancho, de árbol, and guajillo chillies. It’s spicy enough to wake things up but still totally manageable.
How hot is Stupid Sauce?
Stupid Sauce isn’t for the faint of heart. Made with pickled jalapeños and fermented scorpion peppers, it’s a serious step up in heat. We call it Stupid for a reason—but if you love that endorphin rush, it’s worth the ride.
What about allergens or dietary restrictions?
All of our food (with the exception of one dessert) is gluten free. Dairy and soya appear in some dishes, but if you’ve got a specific allergy or dietary need, just let us know when you order and we’ll do everything we can to make it work. Vegetarian and vegan options are always available.
Do you offer catering or private hire?
Yes - we’re available for catering and private events. From weddings to parties to one-off dinners, we can create a menu that fits your event. Email us at Care@ThriftTaco.com or DM us on Instagram @thrift_taco and we’ll get back with options.
VINTAGE & SECONDHAND T-SHIRTS
Where do the t-shirts come from?
Every tee is handpicked by us. We stock three types:
- True Vintage (20+ years old) – rare finds with history.
- Secondhand – more recent pieces with great designs and wear.
- New Merch – our own designs and collabs, printed in limited runs.
All are chosen because they’ve got a story to tell.
How do I know if a t-shirt will fit me?
You can filter t-shirts by both the size on the tag ("Size") and the estimated fit in the UK ("Men's Fit" and "Women's Fit"). Each product page lists chest and length measurements under "Size". As all vintage & secondhand items are Final Sale, please read the details carefully before purchasing.
What condition are the vintage & secondhand t-shirts in?
All vintage & secondhand t-shirts are pre-loved, so you’ll see normal signs of wear. Any extra imperfections are noted under "Condition" on the product page, and pricing reflects this. True vintage items often show their age—that’s part of the charm. As all vintage & secondhand items are Final Sale, please read the details carefully before purchasing.
How should I care for my vintage tee?
We recommend a gentle wash (cold, inside out) and air-drying to keep prints and fabrics in the best shape. Avoid tumble drying where possible—heat is the enemy of vintage cotton.
