The latest branch of Taco Bell has opened in Kent at a service station.

The Mexican fast-food chain opened a new restaurant at the Folkestone Stop24 services at junction 11 near Hythe recently – making it the county's eighth.

The site opened its doors for delivery at the end of December and officially opened on January 18 for click and collect, takeaway and dine in too.

The restaurant is open 11am to 11pm everyday, and delivery is available at the branch via Deliveroo.

Lucy Dee, head of marketing at Taco Bell UK said: "The Kent community have been asking for more Taco Bells and we’re very pleased to be able to deliver; creating local jobs despite challenging circumstances."

Taco Bell opened another site recently in Canterbury high street and is looking at launching a drive-through on the outskirts of the city.

Another opened in Folkestone at the end of last year opposite the McDonalds in West Terrace.

It also has branches in Dover, Maidstone, Chatham, Dartford and Tonbridge.

The Taco Bell menu features tacos, quesadillas, burritos, nachos and loaded fries.
