History

Visit Santa Cruz County singled out D'La Colmena as its Watsonville stop on the county's taco trail, describing a store stocked with Mexican groceries with a compact kitchen serving through a take-out window. Watsonville, in the farming Pajaro Valley, has a large Mexican-American population and many taquerías.

The taco trail recommended tacos of chile verde, chicharrón and carnitas, all braised or fried pork preparations common to market taquerías in the region. Detailed ownership and founding information was not provided in the source. The same trail points visitors from downtown Santa Cruz toward Watsonville, describing the town as a taco destination in its own right.
