What began as a scrappy pop-up has evolved into one of Auckland’s most beloved taco joints. Broke Boy Taco brings an unfiltered kind of authenticity — the sort born from passion, hustle, and a deep respect for Mexican street food. Its Mount Albert spot keeps things refreshingly simple: a small menu, hand-painted signs, and tacos that do all the talking, while additional outposts across the city follow a similar formula. The signature birria is rich, slow-cooked, and perfectly spiced, best enjoyed fresh from the pass and straight from founder Sean Yarbrough’s hands. Honest, flavour-packed, and full of heart, Broke Boy is the real deal.
