Customer Review Summary
Friendly counter service is the most repeated draw, with several reviewers describing welcoming, polite staff and one saying the greeting was so warm they ordered twice. On the food, the BBQ Habanero burrito with fries and its new sauce gets the strongest praise. The seasoned beef taco and Baja Blast also earn enthusiastic mentions, and one first-time visitor called the chips and nachos a little salty but the meal cheap and solid grub. The complaints are fewer but specific. One reviewer found the tacos boring with very limited flavour, though the chips were crispy and tasty. Another got the wrong meat in a crunchwrap, cold food and a long wait, with one person working the kitchen, one on the till and a pile of orders behind. One reviewer describes a quick box of burrito, taco, fries and churros that they called delicious, quick and cheap.

“Wrong meat in my crunchwrap, 18 min wait for food, one person working in the kitchen, one on the till. 20 orders behind at 2.30pm. Food was cold. Should have I complained and waited another 20 min for my correct order? Should you get it correct the first time... Staff looks like they don't give a shit, blaze, shame, it was my go to for a quick scran in Arndale - my advice- don't bother with this one.”

“I had a great experience at Taco Bell in Manchester Arndale today thanks to Timon. He was really friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service from start to finish. He was polite, helpful, and made me feel genuinely valued as a customer. It's always nice to be served by someone who clearly enjoys helping people. Thank you, Timon, for making my visit such a positive one!”

“Taco Bell more like taco smell!!! It stinks in here of body odor wasn’t sure if it was people or my cheese in my burrito. I was promised I fine Mexican cuisine but I ended up with a wet wrap which was probably marinated in toilet water. Took 10 minutes to make a singular taco looked over the counter and I saw what seemed to be an unclean and gross environment. Wouldn’t be suprised if ratatouille and his friends didn’t live in there!! 😡😡”
