Tacos, Quesadillas, Nachos and Burritos will soon be on offer at Westwood Cross with the opening of a new Taco Bell.
The chain was established in California in 1962 and is now a global brand with 8,200+ restaurants in over 32 countries around the world.
The world’s largest Mexican-inspired quick service brand has nearby outlets in Dover, Folkestone and Canterbury.
Bosses say they are unable to share more details just now but the firm is advertising for an assistant general manager for the site.
Westwood Cross says the fast food restaurant is ‘opening soon.’
A planning application for the taco chain shows that it wants to operate a 30 cover restaurant and takeaway in the Debenhams building between 11am and 11pm each day. The application says the business will provide 20 staff, comprising 8 full-time and 12 part-time roles.

The food chain would join Hollywood Bowl, Riparo Lounge and Jump Inc – all at the former Debenhams building.


Looks like this is going to open in the former Debenhams store

Ah brilliant, I knew I’d seen something on planning. Thank you!
Hope there’s a public loo near by!
Looks disgusting. Not my thing at all.
How to make some Fanet residents fatter. Another fast food outlet. Still with 17.500 minimum new properties by 2031 there should be enough customers. ?
No-one forces people to eat it. They could pop into M&S and buy something far healthier and less fattening instead – I do.
IS this enough fast food outlets at westwood cross already-Utter shame on this council-WESTWOOD CROSS SHOULD NEVER BEEN BUILT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Great, I’ll pop in after the gym occasionally.
Wow . All opinions relevant but none rude helpful ones better
Yummy
