Taco Bell last Thursday unveiled its newest store design promising to be the speediest unit yet.
Dubbed the Taco Bell Defy — because it will “defy norms and define the future” — the new design set to break ground in Brooklyn Park, Minn., later this month will be a 3,000-square-foot, two story restaurant with four drive-thru lanes. Three of those lanes will be dedicated to mobile or delivery order pickups, the company said.
McDonald’s Corp. will be expanding its McCafé Bakery offerings Sept. 1 with a new Glazed Pull Apart Donut.
The Chicago-based burger chain said the doughnut will be available all day at participating restaurants. The bakery line was introduced last October.
