Fast food chain Taco Bell to open in Leicester this November

By Adam Rear

It’s time to lick your lips as Leicester welcomes Taco Bell, the Mexican fast-food giant very soon.

The go-ahead was given this summer to open on Gallowtree Gate, where a former GAME store used to be situated.

The 57-seater site spanning two floors will be the UK’s 49^th Taco Bell and will open on November 11, creating 35 new jobs.

The restaurant will allow diners to sit in or take-away, as well as the option for home delivery and click-and-collect.

Taco Bell UK marketing leader Lucy Dee said in a media release: “We’ve had our eye on a potential restaurant in Leicester for a while, and we know we’ve got plenty of fans in the area who we’re looking forward to welcoming through our doors.”
