I'm just amazed there's Taco Bell in the UK. Hark at fucking Soapdish, sorry, John Spartan over there. Fuck you and your franchise wars.

A few years ago there was a program on that showed some tramps getting sandwiches out of the bins at the back of a supermarket, taking them Home and sticking them in a breville.  Tesco just had a load of butties on display for 8p each.  Cheese and tomato, corned beef, cheese and onion etc.  Grabbed some, and they are cooking away now to form a toastie buffet.  Thank you tramps for the stunning idea.

Basildon was their second after their relaunch in the UK. There's loads up around Sheffield way

Didn’t realise we had so many middle aged women as members.

I remember going to a Taco Bell in Baker Street years ago in the 80s, when a family friend took me and my sisters to see the London Planetarium (also now in the past). I quite liked it, so I was surprised they closed up in the UK.

There's one in Southampton too. I'm sure they did their research before opening up branches, but they do seem to have popped up in some odd places.

The one at the Arndale at Manchester is one of the few places who allow people with learning difficulties to work on the counter.  Hoping some other companies follow suit, as they normally get hidden in the back.

There is one in Barnsley now, and I saw somewhere that they are looking to opoen a second in the town too...

Yeah I believe the last one closed around the same time Demolition Man was released where they announced it had won the franchise war. We had Taco Bell, Wendy's, Quiznos, Sbarro, all gone by 2000. Taco Bell relaunched I think in 2010 or 11

Quiznos was still around by 2000 - I was in my first year at university, and there was one in that mini shopping arcade on Oxford Street, and one in the shopping mall near where I live, in Wood Green. I always like Quiznos, could never understand why they weren't more popular.
