Gourmet Food Truck Elevates Roadside Dining on Route to Tenerife’s Mount Teide
Los 80’s Foodtruck has emerged as a popular culinary destination on the road to Tenerife’s Teide National Park, offering artisanal porchetta sandwiches and warming beverages to travelers at the Alteza viewpoint.
Roadside dining in Tenerife is changing. Instead of the usual snacks, high-quality, signature food is popping up in unexpected places. As noted by content creator @elsiciliano_tenerife, a new culinary landmark has appeared on the road to Teide National Park: Los 80’s Foodtruck.
Parked at the Alteza viewpoint in La Esperanza, the truck has become a popular pit stop for cyclists, hikers, and drivers heading toward the summit. Run by Goti, the menu focuses on artisanal porchetta sandwiches. A standout feature is the use of garlic butter, a clever addition designed to provide extra warmth in the chilly mountain air.
To help visitors combat the high-altitude cold, the menu also features warming drinks like hot chocolate and the "Lumumba"—a rich blend of coffee, Licor 43, whipped cream, cinnamon, and a tiramisu cookie. This food truck is part of a growing trend in the Canary Islands, where mobile vendors are professionalizing their service to offer unique, high-quality food in scenic natural settings.
If you’re planning a visit, the truck is open exclusively on weekends and public holidays from 09:30 to 15:00. Its location offers the perfect opportunity to enjoy a unique meal while taking in the stunning volcanic views.
