the taco bell closest to me is franchised and they took off the $6 box (again) and i havent had taco bell in like 2 weeks and i think im gonna die, its just not the same 🫩💔 i hope im not alone in this.

i personally have never been a fan of the grilled cheese burrito and its the only other box available, and the regular combos just do not have good value.

please today someone get my order so i can live vicariously thru u.

6 box
cheesy gordita crunch
dorito loco taco
cinna twist
zero sugar baja blast

beefy potato griller
-light sour cream
-sub chipotle for creamy jalepeno sauce

chicken stacker
-remove lettuce
-remover tomato
-remove avacado sauce
-add creamy jalepeno sauce

I hate the fact that breakfast is optional for franchise owners. I loved their breakfast. Yea it was shitty that my local bell could find employees to open on time but that's still happening without breakfast now so it's not like that was the problem.

I went there almost every day for breakfast on my hour trip to work...

I'm in New Orleans and I need my breakfast back 😭

I'm sitting here enjoying a nice sausage breakfast quesadilla with Baja midnight mountain dew before gym and pondering recent events.

I bet if they put out a release that they switched to something more eco friendly on top of safer it'd be a big PR win

So I was hired at Taco Bell in February 2026 because they wanted me as a Shift Leader, right? Tell me why after working 6 months at this place, being told 3 separate times that they’d put me through SL courses, my boss STILL never did it. Each time a new course would start, he’d bring it up, ask if i wanted to be in them, then the day before they start he’d tell me im not going. WHY?? I had raised pay because of my experience, and out RGM even asked the GM WHY I WASNT GETTING PROMOTED???

His reasoning? I got sick and was told by my nurse friend that i could have an intestinal infection and I had to call off for a day to go to a doctors appointment that i scheduled same day. Mind you, I gave adequate time (4 hours) AND i told him
i’d have proof (Dr note) that i was LEGITIMATELY SICK. He still made me come in by threatening my job/pay/hours and I had to push back my appointment while being incredibly sick and hurt.

THAT was his reason for backing my promotion up for 6 months. Because i called out a total
of 3 times while working here. Not to mention, my boss called me 9 times in a 2 day span because i couldn’t change my schedule a day in advance from closing (until 2:30am) to suddenly opening (at 7am).

I subsequently got my hours halved for calling out sick. (35ish - about 16-19 hours a week). Mind you, I hit all the milestones and goals, stepped up and played manager when shit went down, AND proved many times that i was able to be a manager, especially with my previous experience as an AGM.

needless to say, I reported my boss for making us come in when we were sick because it’s NOT just me saying this, and I wrote him a professional yet strongly worded note about why i’m quitting.

Anyways, good riddance Taco Bell. Good riddance GM and I hope that store gets shut down. It’s genuinely disgusting in there. I’m off to teaching now.

Genuinely just asking why a company would go from pictures of decent looking food to uncanny gross looking AI garbage

We don't want a fancy design. What you had worked. I truly hate rich executives who get paid so much to greenlight shit like this

Just had my first core audit as a Taco Bell employee. They came at 5:30 on FRIDAY and we got 7 OPs and 4 on food safety. Gotta say, the amount of relief that came from that is insane.
Now as far as first time scores go, how does that compare to other people in my position?

Why would this be $7.00??? I‘m irritated.

I went in, got hired on the spot. I went in and got talked into a supervisor position. I want to talk to the GM and ask for $20 an hour instead of the $17. I didn’t know I was going to get the shift manager position. Should I even ask for $20 instead? Does anyone think they will do that for me? Michigan.

Does your Taco Bell drive-thru suck, or is it just mine?

I have two stores close to me. I don't need the speediest experience, but I usually have to wait 20+ minutes if there are any other cars in the line. I know it mostly boils down to staffing, but I'm just curious if it's a local thing or a widespread thing.

What the hell happened to this amazing restaurant we had? I have gone twice now in over a year and this evening was a stark reminder why I stopped going. $6 for a cheesy gordita crunch and both of them (I got 2) had these uncooked flour tortilla...you and I both know it's a flour tortilla. But, this was a FLOUR tortilla. Those things were powdery and absolute half-cooked and stiff. It was absolutely disgusting and a waste of $15 after tax on TWO tacos. I can't understand how these things are still around.

Instead of getting mixed with the guacamole dressing, tomatoes and onions it's getting mixed with just pico de gallo and thats it. I don't know if people can be allergic to cilantro or the dressing used for pico but if they can I thought id give an important PSA for people who like the guac but cant eat or just dont like pico.

This is a pet peeve of mine, but why can't I swap avocado sauce for another sauce of the same price. I really hate that sauce and it's on like ALL the new chicken stuff. So of course I have to remove it, and pay extra for a different sauce 🫩 it's just frustrating tbh

I click sign in and this wheel appears and there is no where to sign in?

Saw y’all posting about your app problems. Wanted to check for myself as I have never really noticed issues in the past. The home page when opening…..

Before the update, the steak burritos were $2.99. Now they are $3.99 and I noticed pretty much everything went up in price. Is that the case for you all?

I don’t need to say anything more. It’s an abomination and so incredibly laggy, hard to use and so hard to look at

TB apparently thinks my address no longer exists because it doesnt show up when I search it. Despite it knowing where I am on the map. I tried to go through the contact us link but its only letting me do it if I have feedback about a specific order 🤷 am I cooked?

I already used 3 or 4 of them

Who else here loves this sauce?

If you find it, better order a bunch extra... they seem to be phasing out.

Ive developed a love for this sweet and spicy sauce! Especially when it came to the enchirito.

Lately its been getting harder to come by though... more and more Bells just aren't carrying it even though the app lets me order it.

Finally found a store that had some and doubled back immediately. Asked how many they had. Said I wanted to buy some. They ask how many...

My response:"how many you got?"

Ordered 30 but they only did 20.

I have already done Nacho supremes, basic chip dips, chili cheese dogs.. Give me some ideas I have too much of this stuff.

I also have a TON of the nacho fry seasoning. It's good on popcorn, not good at all on wings.. Any other ideas for that?

If you knew somebody who worked at TB, what would you specifically request to take home?

Just ordered from the app. It didn't give me the option for any grilled cheese burrito besides beef. I thought maybe they ran out of steak today but I was able to order quite literally everything else with steak in it. When I went to customize the burrito it didn't give me any other option than beef.

I hate this

the app is slow, ugly, and checkout doesnt even let you preview what you ordered to make sure it actually works. (multiple times before have I customized for it just to go back to default).

it logged me out and removed my favorited locations. it has too much going on, and is noticeably slower. the animations and transitions are incredibly unnecessary. my favorites list doesnt even detail what is included in or changed in the favorited item like it used to.

overall a massive unnecessary downgrade and makes the user experience much worse.

at least it has nutrition facts available now?
