Taco is a new Mexican style font family based on our Tavern and Algerian Mesa type designs.


When I finished the extra heavier weights for Tavern I decided to play around with a decorated version, the extra bold letters allowed for much more room to work with an inlay pattern.


After experimenting with several designs I decided on a Mexican pattern because the original base font is very popular in Mexican restaurant logos and menus plus it's frequently used on Tequila bottle labels.


I originally planned three weights for the Taco font family, however, after completing the bold weight I've decided to release it now so you may put it to use while the regular and extra bold are being produced, sorry I can't estimate a release date for the two other weights.


To use the fill font layers you'll need an application that allows you to work in layers such as Adobe Creative Suite products.


Opentype features aware applications are also needed for accessing the many alternate glyphs in Taco, all the alternates that you love in our Tavern fonts are also available in Taco.


While the fill font layers are in registration with one another some applications may throw them out of alignment by changing the spacing.

Custom inter letter spacing in Adobe Creative Suite may also throw the fill fonts out of alignment.

We recommend doing your custom spacing first then duplicate the type layer and change to the next fill font and color.


The inspiration for the Taco name of this font family was from a homemade Taco dinner I made for a guest at my house, after dinner I searched to see if there was a commercial font named Taco.

There was no such font named Taco and the rest is history.


The old Stephenson Blake Algerian font has come a long way since 1908, and we're not done with it yet.


This font represents six weeks of painstaking hard work seven days a week, we've done our best to make sure all fonts are synchronized to work together in layers.


We hope you enjoy our Taco font family, we're looking forward to see it in use.

Download Bayside Tavern Fonts Family From FontMesa

Download Bayside Tavern Fonts Family From FontMesa


Bayside Tavern is a weathered version of our Tavern Alt font family.


With its straight sides Bayside Tavern fits better in tight spaces and reads better at smaller point sizes than the regular Bay Tavern version.


With three weights, open faced and outline versions to choose from you're sure to find the right style for your new project, restaurant menu, logo, t-shirt design or Pirate costume party.


While our original Tavern Alt font has been increased to include five weights additional weights for Bay Tavern will have to wait for now, adding the notched cut in's were all done by hand which causes a lot of cramping so a long break is needed before creating the extra weights.


The Fill fonts in the Bayside Tavern family are meant to be layered behind the Bayside Open fonts, if you're using Bayside Open select Bayside Fill, if you're using Bayside Open L select Bayside Fill L, if you're using Bayside Open S select Bayside Fill S and so on.
