Is PURE Taqueria the right franchise for you? If you have leadership experience in the full-service restaurant field and are looking for an upscale business opportunity that is high-energy, food- and customer-focused, and targeted toward fun-loving, sophisticated adults, then PURE Taqueria may be the perfect fit. Although we prefer that our franchise owners take a hands-on role in the success of their location(s), day-to-day management is not required. PURE is a destination for discriminating diners who want more than a strip-mall experience. We strongly prefer that all PURE locations be free-standing, although we will consider spaces that are part of premier, top-tier urban retail developments. Each restaurant must include covered outdoor seating, roll-up garage doors and a full bar - hallmarks of the PURE brand's sophisticated fun. Because PURE Taqueria is a destination restaurant rather than a one-on-every-corner commodity, PURE franchisees enjoy exclusivity within their geographic markets. And because PURE is a new, fresh concept in America's growing love affair with Mexican food, it stands out among other, less refined options. PURE's roots in time-honored, authentic Mexican recipes take America's increasing taco-cart craze into a new age of awesome tastes and inventive presentations. Our menu includes a number of innovative appetizers, taco plates, and full-on entrees that treat hungry customers to a Mexican dining experience rarely found north of the border. The menu can be customized to include gluten free versions of many dishes to meet special dietary requirements. The bar plays a key role in PURE's concept and success, with more than 80 different kinds of tequila, signature margaritas, Mexican and domestic beers, wines and sangria.
