Residents who live in Sierra Vista Southeast and Hereford don't have many options when it comes to dining, particularly picking up a quick bite of fast food. Living that far out of town, most people drive all the way into Sierra Vista to grab a meal or pick something up on the way home.

Even pizza delivery isn't possible for those who live far enough out of the city limits. Picking up food from most fast-food restaurants in and around Sierra Vista means it will likely be cold by the time your family gets the chance to dig in.

There will finally be another fast-food option on the Sierra Vista, giving McDonald's a run for its money. The new Taco Bell is being built in the lot between Papa's 50s Diner and King's Cabinets on Highway 92 near Canyon de Flores. The restaurant is expected to be a drive thru and take out only option, not offering dining room service.

Inspired by the Covid 19 pandemic, Taco Bell announced it would be going to a drive thru only model in many of its locations. The new Canyon de Flores Taco Bell will follow this model, allowing residents to pick up meals on their way home or into town.

With the shorter distance, it should provide a little relief for busy families looking for a simple solution to dinner between weeknight practices and marathon homework sessions.

Construction has begun on the new restaurant, but no word yet on when they plan to begin hiring or when they anticipate opening their doors.
