I'm a poor English man with the humble dream of visiting The United States of America. But with only a part time minimum wage job I simply cant afford to do that ever in my lifetime. I searched and searched for American fast food restaurants in the UK for many years but unfortunately the English pallet is very limited and the English public aren't willing to diversify beyond Fish and Chips shepherds pie and Lamb Tikka Tandoori.

However on one fateful night (Tonight) I discovered that there is a Taco Bell in a City not to far from me. Will it be the taste of America that I have always dreamed of? Should I bring my patronage to this humble establishment?

Taco Bell is hit or miss as fuck, and when it's a miss the food is terrible. Then again, even the good items on the menu are absolute crap and not representative of really anything else in American food, but make an occasional guilty pleasure when you're drunk as fuck.

Don't go to the one in manchester or you'll get diarrhea. Quesadillas are top though.

A no and a yes. The 5 layer burrito dipped in fire sauce is the best item on the menu.

I'll trade you a $5 box for a meat pie and sausage roll from that place that hire homely women (Greggs?)

The pic in the OP quite clearly says Nottingham you fucking retart!!! how fucking dumb are you? I just want to experience the American dream (from the perspective of a fat Mexican) and want to know if Taco bell is worth a visit. That is all. But people like you come into threads like this to make stupid statements and hijack a perfectly valid thread with pointless ramblings. I'm not wealthy and I wasn't fortunate enough to be born in a west coast flyover state. I need to make do with what I've been given and make the most of my life situation and not be distracted by pointless posts like yours. I appreciate the Quesadillas recommendation though thanks.

they opened a Taco Bell in Brighton recently
it's utterly disgusting m8. avoid.
a lot of people on /ck/ seem to shill this tripe though, so expect people saying things like
>the burrito is great if you do x to it
>the fries are awesome if y hasn't happened
or my favourite
>the sauces are all shit i know, but if you mix them together it's not too bad
this is the height of praise for taco bell

No probs, you should go try five guys too if you're feeling fancy.

Also, honestly if you're looking for a decent Mexican that won't give you the runs, you're best off going to barburritos

Live near a newer branch. Its okay, to be honest you'll get more hyped for the brand than the actual products. Not to be a downer though as is the case with Subway you tend to run into the issue where all of their food tastes the same even when they use different ingredients. Avoid the Crunchwrap Supreme, its alright though blatantly inferior to most other products despite its appearance - the quesadillas are hilariously thin though perhaps the tastiest products they sell, and churros! Don't forget the churros!

Personally I would recommend the quesadilla box meal as you get an extra taco, drink, churros and chips/ chicken nachos for £6.69 around where I live. Frankly though prepare for marginal disappointment.

The only reason I eat it is because of the dollar menu. Not sure if they have it in the uk. I usually get 5$ of whatever and a 12 pack and just drink and eat all night. I wouldn’t eat that slop sober.

They also sell the Taco Bell chipotle sauce in the store here so I make my own burritos which are better and just add the sauce. Basically it’s just cheap shit for when you’re drunk or high. Don’t have high expectations.

Careful. If you say something bad about Taco Bell on the internet you might be arrested by the English thought police of tolerance and diversity.
