Super Loco welcomes Earth Month
April is Earth Month, and the Super Loco Group is back to make a positive impact. Diners visiting Super Loco Customs House, Super Loco Robertson Quay, Chico Loco, or Lucha Loco can look forward to planet-friendly dishes made with ethically and sustainably sourced produce.

You can also drink for the planet with the refreshing Apache’s Tepache margarita brewed with pineapple tepache fermented from upcycled pineapple fruit and Arquitecto tequila. The brand is also working with reforestation technology start-up Green Steps Group; a portion of proceeds from the group’s Earth Month menus will go towards reforestation efforts in Borneo.
