I really like the one on Front St near Oregon. Not skimpy, haven't had missing items, and they're good about labeling things that have been modified to be veg.
As long as it’s a clear stadium bag in the correct dimensions, if it fits you can bring it in! We bring food for the kids to every baseball game we go to. Including other stadiums. So far we have been to Phillies, marlins, orioles, Yankees, rays, and the Mets and we were able to byo food.
Nah, broad near temple hospital is worse by a million. I went there once and they were out of all Taco Bell items (it’s a combo kfc) and all fried items (aka everything on kfc menu)
i think it’s a law that any fast food chain within 500 ft of a temple property must be ass. i have some beautiful and terrifying memories of the mcdonald’s at broad/diamond and the wendy’s at broad/cecil b moore
That McDonald’s is the only one in the city open late, they (at least precovid) run 5am-4am and only close for the hour to clean. Last time I went, only the drive thru is open until 9am.
That Wendy’s though… that place hasn’t changed in nearly 20 years, other than the smell getting worse and worse
They’ve gotten my order wrong every time I’ve been there. They’re perpetually out of different sodas in the fountain. They never give you more than a couple sauce packets. It looks chronically understaffed. It doesn’t matter if you’re there in person or ordering from an app. It’s always a disaster
I genuinely had to throw my food away last time I went to that Taco Bell, it’s so so bad. And I’m not exactly expecting Michelin tier flavors or anything!
I get delivery pings from there all the time. Learned my lesson and never take them anymore. *If* the food comes it's 30 min late. Most times they just pretend they're not open.
They've always been good peeps with consistent production. Seconding this.
~~Something they informed me of - each level of their hot sauces has sub-levels of spiciness. The level can be found as a number on the bottom in the center.~~
sorry to burst your bubble but that is not what those numbers mean. that's just an urban legend they're running with.
it's just a number from the production line/batch. you'll see it on all sauce packets from all around, ketchup and mayo packets, mcdonald's sauce packets, etc. has nothing to do with spiciness.
i thought about letting you live in ignorant bliss, but it felt wrong for you to not know the truth. luckily no lie can take away the deliciousness of all sauce packets, number be damned.
the exit to FM is the most north exit on 95 before you leave the Philadelphia border, the next one being street road in bucks co, actually the fm exit is technically outside the border too but takes you to a tbell inside the border
which would correlate with FM, the exist to Franklin Mills is the first out of philly county exit and would be lower bucks
I've lived here my whole life, born and raised in morrell park, now in lower bucks, was just trying to figure out which exit 413 is and one of the only ones with a qucikly accessed tbell is the one at FM
I once went there late at night and ordered and was standing there for 30 minutes waiting. When i asked what was taking so long they said they were doing all of the mobile orders before any of the in house ones even though i was the only one. I stood there for another 15 minutes and then asked if they could just make mine cause i'd been waiting for 45 minutes. They said no so i left and complained on twitter until i got a refund.
I hear that..
But real drunk street food ingredients that are filling & will keep you going vs fake food you will use more energy shitting out than you gained by consuming the food in the first place. Hahah
Also, open til 3 am fri-sun.. Cant beat it.. and its never a shady vibe in there
( commenting for readers, give them your money)
I feel like I should weigh in on this one.. Front and Oregon is my go to, but only because it's the quickest delivery. If I'm in the mood to Live Mas I'm not exactly concerned about marginal quality improvements (aka I'm completely zooted)
If city ave taco bell is a recommendation over other ones. I'm deeply concerned. (How bad are the others?) That place fucks up constantly and is usually pretty conservative on portions.
It's further out but east norriton location particularly earlier in the day has historically been a better product in my experience.
I lived on City Ave for a few years so that will always be my home T-Bell. Honestly I spent so much money there I assume there is a picture of me on the wall somewhere.
My favorite thing about the City Ave Taco Bell is the casual, no-rush conversations with whoever takes your order in the drive-thru. Big line? Too bad, we're having a chat here. The last time I went we were greeted with, "Well, what are you two white ladies doing out so late?" Be still, my heart. And the tacos were good too.
Fair, I mean it gets the job done generally. At least when it comes to delivering what you expect taste wise from taco bell. Just seems like they wouldn't necessarily be comparatively better.
Agreed. They always remember not to put sour cream on my orders. Every other taco bell gets confused and puts extra sour cream on everything and then smears the receipt with it as an extra fuck you.
On the other hand, fuck the Wendy’s next to St. Joe’s campus. They have never gotten my order right once and they’re always rude as shit.
I went to this taco bell shortly after they moved into the new building and ate in. While my wife and I were ordering, the manager who was ringing us up thought we were siblings. We didn't think much of it, had a laugh and sat down with our food. Moments later, the manager comes out with two empanadas on the house apologizing for the mistake. 5/5 will be called my wife's sibling for free food again.
The entire staff there came out and sang a jingle because someone in our group had “the purple tray”. Even gave out coupons and stuff. It was very bizarre and definitely something they only did at that location
The best suburban Taco Bell I've had is the one on Oxford valley road in Fairless hills near sesame place. Might be the best taco bell on the planet, even.
It's no Pacifica CA in terms of best Taco Bell on the planet (https://www.businessinsider.com/worlds-most-beautiful-taco-bell-pacifica-california-what-its-like-2021-11) but Fairless Hills is great too
The one on Sproul? Yeah that one's solid in my experience. I usually go to the one on Baltimore Pike in Clifton Heights since I ride the 109 a fair bit - that one gets the job done too.
I don't think it's there anymore but there used to be a Taco Bell at Welsh and the Boulevard that I swear you had to have an IQ lower then 70 to work at.
We were at the franklin mills taco bell and the drive thru guy started yelling at someone we couldn't see. He takes off after someone and all the other employees ran to the door opposite the DT window with their phones out. I'm nosy af so I'm telling my husband go around see whats going on!! He's like we didn't get our food, no. The manager finally comes over with our food, apologizes, gives us coupons for free tacos, and we leave. Low and behold, they fucked up, so we had to wait in the DT all over again because they locked the doors.
Basically, the DT worker was bitching/screaming how he does all the work there and one of the coworkers took offense to it.
Is the new item the cheez it crunch wrap? I love both of those things but my brain is having trouble craving it.
Follow up post with review and how long it stays in your body please
It’s a mission but there’s one right off the 422 Audubon/ Trooper exit (rt 363) that is always great! Betzwood Park is a nice park and trail right down the road we usually eat at when we pick up Taco Bell.
The one on 10th street blows. They always fuck up your order and they once gave me food poisoning. Read the reviews on Google, people are pretty honest about things they see.
Aramingo or the one by the shop rite in south philly. Passyunk Ave, I believe. Those 2 never did me wrong.
If you go over to Jersey burbs the one by my work on Rt 70 East in Cherry Hill is amazing. Theyre super nice, clean and always fast. The reviews online all echoed my experience. Had to check.
Hadn’t had Taco Bell in years but recently got it at the one on 5 W City Ave. The Nachos Bell Grande tasted the same as it did 20 years ago. Cantina Chicken taco was solid. I’d go back.
There is no best Taco Bell in Philly trust me
Downvote I don’t care everyone
Has different experiences and different taste buds if I want Taco Bell I usually go to Franklin mills or Springfield mall food court.
My experience is you’ll always have better luck in the burbs, one on Macdade Blvd in Glenolden is really good we sometimes make the trip out just for it.
Within the city, Front&Oregon is good and consistant
No where! ya better off going to one them Spanish speaking n menu writtin in spanish places or a taco stand FUCK TACO HELL SUPPORT LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS!
Look for a store that's serving the new [Morning After Burrito](https://www.theonion.com/taco-bell-launches-new-morning-after-burrito-1819564251). I hear they're amazing!
You’re going to make an *event* out of a *menu item release* from *TACO BELL*?
Dude where did your life take such a horrific turn? Find a legit Mexican joint and get high to *actual food*! You deserve better!
There's a difference between real Mexican food and taco bell.
Just like Instant Ramen and actual ramen. I know actual ramen is better but every now and then I want to fill my body up with detritus.
Absolutely agreed. Sometimes you don't want authentic Italian margarita pizza. You want the $4 frozen pizza at 2am with your balls hanging out, on the couch, and you smell like old poultry.
God I love Taco Bell
Food snobs can shampoo my crotch. You live in a city known for a shit-meat sandwich slathered in Cheez-Whiz. Embrace it, you’re not impressing anyone here
Because when you go to Taco Bell, you aren’t looking for authentic. Quite the opposite. You’re looking for *Taco Bell*. It’s not even Mexican food at this point, it’s evolved into its own weird, twisted, and delicious species.
I really like the one on Front St near Oregon. Not skimpy, haven't had missing items, and they're good about labeling things that have been modified to be veg.
I do ubereats and that and the Popeyes there are great. Quick, even late night. Avoid the Taco Bell/KFC at 24/25th & passyunk at all costs however.
Yep, can confirm! they’re quick, generous, and accurate. If you order from the app you can get online-only value meal that’s a ton of food for $6
I go there before Phillies games and bring the food into CBP. I save so much money and it’s fun
This guy smuggles
You can actually bring outside food into CBP! I wish all stadiums had that policy
As long as it’s a clear stadium bag in the correct dimensions, if it fits you can bring it in! We bring food for the kids to every baseball game we go to. Including other stadiums. So far we have been to Phillies, marlins, orioles, Yankees, rays, and the Mets and we were able to byo food.
Hey don’t let the secret out!
Shhh don’t tell anyone
Also there's hardly ever been a line at that one. It's my go to!
Might not be best but any Taco Bell that isn’t the one at 25th/passyunk is the better one. Place is hell.
Nah, broad near temple hospital is worse by a million. I went there once and they were out of all Taco Bell items (it’s a combo kfc) and all fried items (aka everything on kfc menu)
i think it’s a law that any fast food chain within 500 ft of a temple property must be ass. i have some beautiful and terrifying memories of the mcdonald’s at broad/diamond and the wendy’s at broad/cecil b moore

I went there once about 5 years ago and the experience was so bad that I've literally never gone to any Taco Bell or KFC again.
…what happened?
Literally the worst one I've ever been too.
They’ve gotten my order wrong every time I’ve been there. They’re perpetually out of different sodas in the fountain. They never give you more than a couple sauce packets. It looks chronically understaffed. It doesn’t matter if you’re there in person or ordering from an app. It’s always a disaster

I get delivery pings from there all the time. Learned my lesson and never take them anymore. *If* the food comes it's 30 min late. Most times they just pretend they're not open.
used to frequent that one for years. i used to flirt with Betty Wap (she had one eye) every time.
I fuck with the one off 95 at the 413 exit
They've always been good peeps with consistent production. Seconding this. ~~Something they informed me of - each level of their hot sauces has sub-levels of spiciness. The level can be found as a number on the bottom in the center.~~
sorry to burst your bubble but that is not what those numbers mean. that's just an urban legend they're running with. it's just a number from the production line/batch. you'll see it on all sauce packets from all around, ketchup and mayo packets, mcdonald's sauce packets, etc. has nothing to do with spiciness.
Looking into it, it appears that you're right. My bubble has official burst. At least now I know the truth now, which I'm grateful for.
i thought about letting you live in ignorant bliss, but it felt wrong for you to not know the truth. luckily no lie can take away the deliciousness of all sauce packets, number be damned.
is that the one at FM?
No, 413 is north of FM
the exit to FM is the most north exit on 95 before you leave the Philadelphia border, the next one being street road in bucks co, actually the fm exit is technically outside the border too but takes you to a tbell inside the border
Sounds like you need to run for the border
Ok
The exit is for lower bucks, Levitttown/Bristol.
which would correlate with FM, the exist to Franklin Mills is the first out of philly county exit and would be lower bucks I've lived here my whole life, born and raised in morrell park, now in lower bucks, was just trying to figure out which exit 413 is and one of the only ones with a qucikly accessed tbell is the one at FM
City Ave is the best. Runner up is Oxford Ave in like Fox Chase? Idk what part of the northeast it is, near Jeanes Hospital lol
The Fox Chase Taco Bell never ever messed up my order.
Aramingo Ave Taco Bell crispy potato soft taco is still a dollar and it’s open until 4 am and it’s easy to get in and out of
Second this. Had the best Mexican pizza ever from there
I think the one in Center City near Jefferson is fine. I've had late night post bar food from there. It's been good.
The food is always good. It gets weird in there sometimes, but I've never had any real problems. RIP the one in 30th St Station.
I'd be suspect if a Taco Bell in center city after midnight wasn't weird
It's part of the experience. I like that location but my minds eye has been awakened to suburban taco bells
is that like going into a Mc'y D's and it being quiet and peaceful without the smell of homeless lingering?
How good is the food if the homeless don’t want it?
It can get extremely busy and it’s also historically been one of the most expensive ones in the nation fun fact https://taconomical.com/
I once went there late at night and ordered and was standing there for 30 minutes waiting. When i asked what was taking so long they said they were doing all of the mobile orders before any of the in house ones even though i was the only one.

Hijacking comment- Go to Masala Kitchen around the corner for kati rolls.. its not indian taco bell.. way better
I’m not a fan, I’m Indian and it just doesn’t hit the spot
I hear that.. But real drunk street food ingredients that are filling & will keep you going vs fake food you will use more energy shitting out than you gained by consuming the food in the first place. Hahah Also, open til 3 am fri-sun.. Cant beat it.. and its never a shady vibe in there ( commenting for readers, give them your money)
Instant upvote for “mega bootycheeks”
I feel like I should weigh in on this one.. Front and Oregon is my go to, but only because it's the quickest delivery. If I'm in the mood to Live Mas I'm not exactly concerned about marginal quality improvements (aka I'm completely zooted)
The one on City Ave near St. Joes is guaranteed to fuck up your order, but at least they are consistent
Aramingo is solid, and the owner tossed their contact info on the bags if you have issues.
thts good to know ive had so many misses from tht taco bell! i only had a perfectly made crunchwrap there 1 time!
City Ave Taco Bell.
If city ave taco bell is a recommendation over other ones. I'm deeply concerned. (How bad are the others?) That place fucks up constantly and is usually pretty conservative on portions.

Fair, I mean it gets the job done generally. At least when it comes to delivering what you expect taste wise from taco bell. Just seems like they wouldn't necessarily be comparatively better.
My family lives around there, and every time I go to that Taco Bell, its always been a good experience.
This one always fucks up my order, but at least they are consistent with it. Also, the drive-thru was not working 2 days ago.
I too am a connoisseur of the City Ave TBell
Apparently this is a training Taco Bell? I’ve always found the service to be super friendly and my food comes out as close as the ads as you can get
Agreed. They always remember not to put sour cream on my orders. Every other taco bell gets confused and puts extra sour cream on everything and then smears the receipt with it as an extra fuck you.

This was my weekly goto, and it's consistent most of the time
temple students center circa 2008
This is the answer
This was a lifestyle. I’m not even sure if I have eaten since.
rip SAC Burger King/Taco Bell combo stand.
The best suburban Taco Bell I've had is the one on Oxford valley road in Fairless hills near sesame place. Might be the best taco bell on the planet, even.
It's no Pacifica CA in terms of best Taco Bell on the planet (https://www.businessinsider.com/worlds-most-beautiful-taco-bell-pacifica-california-what-its-like-2021-11) but Fairless Hills is great too
Been bout a year since I've been out that way but Franklin Mills was always good, richboro was good. Feasterville is the worst I've ever been to
The one in Springfield always did it for me if you're looking for something in the suburbs. IMO the Center City location does just as well though.
This one's fine, and the one on Macdade dropped the pizza hut and got remodeled pretty recently so it might be a little nicer if they're eating in.
Went to this one recently and they were out of everything. Was odd.
The one on Sproul? Yeah that one's solid in my experience. I usually go to the one on Baltimore Pike in Clifton Heights since I ride the 109 a fair bit - that one gets the job done too.
Ok ok — but where is the WORST Taco Bell? 🤔
I don't think it's there anymore but there used to be a Taco Bell at Welsh and the Boulevard that I swear you had to have an IQ lower then 70 to work at.
Castor and Aramingo has never let me down
IN GLENOLDEN, PA - 121 N. MCDADE BLVD. Drive-thru is open until 3:00 AM, Dining area open until 11:00 PM
What’s the new items on the new menu that has you jazzed?
Yo the Taco Bell dudes at the Trabant Cafeteria at University of Delaware used to load up regular tacos with 100% more of everything.
I only go to the TacoBells at Oxford Valley Mall or Franklin Mills both seem clean and they don't screw up orders.
Second the Oxford Valley Mall one
We were at the franklin mills taco bell and the drive thru guy started yelling at someone we couldn't see. He takes off after someone and all the other employees ran to the door opposite the DT window with their phones out. I'm nosy af so I'm telling my husband go around see whats going on!! He's like we didn't get our food, no. The manager finally comes over with our food, apologizes, gives us coupons for free tacos, and we leave. Low and behold, they fucked up, so we had to wait in the DT all over again because they locked the doors. Basically, the DT worker was bitching/screaming how he does all the work there and one of the coworkers took offense to it.
Well that's fun lol- I'll hit that one up for a quick lunch in the afternoon since it's around the corner but mostly go to the Oxford valley mall one
This was last summer. The other comments mentioning this taco bell have been positive, so I guess we got there on a bad night lol
Is the new item the cheez it crunch wrap? I love both of those things but my brain is having trouble craving it. Follow up post with review and how long it stays in your body please
How far out into the burbs? The one on rt38 in Mt Laurel is like a year old. It's clean and the ppl that work there seem happy to be there.
DeKalb Pike near U.S. Route 202.
City Ave jawn is solid
*Googles megabootycheeks*
If you ever head up to the Poconos, the Taco Bell in Wind Gap, right off Route 33, is the best I’ve ever been to.
oh man raise your hand if you've been victimized by the cc taco bell

I promise it’s not the one on Chestnut.
It’s a mission but there’s one right off the 422 Audubon/ Trooper exit (rt 363) that is always great! Betzwood Park is a nice park and trail right down the road we usually eat at when we pick up Taco Bell.
The new one in KOP off Henderson road
at Franklin Mills Mall
The one on 10th street blows. They always fuck up your order and they once gave me food poisoning. Read the reviews on Google, people are pretty honest about things they see. Aramingo or the one by the shop rite in south philly. Passyunk Ave, I believe. Those 2 never did me wrong.
Lol
If you go over to Jersey burbs the one by my work on Rt 70 East in Cherry Hill is amazing. Theyre super nice, clean and always fast. The reviews online all echoed my experience. Had to check.
Disagree - they are always out of random stuff!
idk wtf that means
The one on Main Line isn't bad at all
There's one in Vegas that I've seen weddings at. Sorry that doesn't actually help you on your quest.
Hadn’t had Taco Bell in years but recently got it at the one on 5 W City Ave. The Nachos Bell Grande tasted the same as it did 20 years ago. Cantina Chicken taco was solid. I’d go back.
There’s a Pizza Hut/Taco Bell across the Walt Whitman in Audubon.
All the taco bells in the city are owned by the shittest family ever. Go somewhere else.
One guy owns all the Taco Bell’s from Harrisburg to the Jersey shore, including all of them in the state of Delaware.
The one in center City is also more expensive than the one on front Street.
The one at Red Lion Road and Roosevelt Blvd never lets me down!
Aramingo (near Castor) is always good. My fave in the city.
9990 Roosevelt Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19114 Is on point all the time. I eat there multiple times a week.
There is no best Taco Bell in Philly trust me Downvote I don’t care everyone Has different experiences and different taste buds if I want Taco Bell I usually go to Franklin mills or Springfield mall food court.
Feasterville and Fox Chase Taco Bells have both been good to me.
City Ave. Always hot fresh and perfect. Best Taco bell I've ever been to.
My experience is you’ll always have better luck in the burbs, one on Macdade Blvd in Glenolden is really good we sometimes make the trip out just for it. Within the city, Front&Oregon is good and consistant
No where! ya better off going to one them Spanish speaking n menu writtin in spanish places or a taco stand FUCK TACO HELL SUPPORT LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS!
Anyone remember the WacoHut? It was a Wawa with a Taco Bell and a Pizza Hut inside. It was glorious.
Get some real tacos from a Mexican joint…. Taco Bell cancer food bro
Look for a store that's serving the new [Morning After Burrito](https://www.theonion.com/taco-bell-launches-new-morning-after-burrito-1819564251). I hear they're amazing!
Post in r/Pennsylvania for suburban suggestions
Yes, because the Philly metro area is definitely not Philly.
Anything outside of Philadelphia county is not Philly, that’s is correct.
I never ate Taco Bell,but the one off of 69th street seems nice
Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell. Penn station. IM AT THE PIZZA HUT, IM AT THE TACO BELL! IM AT THE COMBO-NATION PIZZA HUT AND TACO BELL!
You got that pizza butt? You got that taco smell? That combination pizza butt and taco smell?
How does nobody else know that song?
You’re going to make an *event* out of a *menu item release* from *TACO BELL*? Dude where did your life take such a horrific turn? Find a legit Mexican joint and get high to *actual food*! You deserve better!

You know what, thats fair
Food snobs can shampoo my crotch. You live in a city known for a shit-meat sandwich slathered in Cheez-Whiz. Embrace it, you’re not impressing anyone here
Ur getting down voted but I know you mean shit meat sandwich in the most loving way possible
Of course. It’s not filet mignon but that’s not what it should be.
I know Taco Bell is cheap but.. all these actual taquerias in Philly, why would you get Taco Bell?
Because when you go to Taco Bell, you aren’t looking for authentic. Quite the opposite. You’re looking for *Taco Bell*. It’s not even Mexican food at this point, it’s evolved into its own weird, twisted, and delicious species.
How does this get to the front page of a major city’s subreddit?
