The California founded restaurant chain, known for its tacos and burritos, opened a brand new eatery on the Upper Retail Park at Merry Hill, Brierley Hill, on Saturday (July 11).


Fan favourites such as the Crunchwrap Supreme, Crunchy Taco Supreme and Volcano Burrito, as well as a range of vegetarian options, feature on the menu along with the BBQ Habanero Burrito (limited time only), BBQ Habanero Chicken Tenders, Chocolate Churro Bites – and Mountain Dew Baja Blast.
To celebrate the opening, 100 exclusive Taco Bell T-shirts were up for grabs for the first 100 customers.


Guests were also treated to free cinnamon twists with any purchase on opening day and a team from Red Bull also turned up for the launch.


Taco Bell Merry Hill is a franchise business operated by Campana Ltd, which runs 24 restaurants across the UK - a key growth market for Taco Bell, which now has over 150 locations nationwide and more new restaurant openings planned throughout the year.

The new restaurant is open from 10am to 11pm daily.
