Camp Taco was a casual taqueria located in the Edgewood Town Center shopping center in Homewood.
The original location was opened at 1017 20th Street South in Five Points South's Pickwick Plaza in October 2009 by Richard Bishop and his daughter, Chelsea. The menu featured a long list of signature tacos made with fresh ingredients. The yellow tiled walls of the former Subway sandwich shop were adorned with paintings on velvet.
In 2010, Bishop sold the business to Adnan Abu-Sharif. Abu-Sharif then opened a second location at Edgewood Town Center in mid-2011 and closed the original location in Five Points that November. In August 2013, Abu-Sharif closed the Edgewood Town Center location as well.
