Grilled cheesy burritos, chicken quesadillas and the infamous Baja Blast will soon be accessible without driving two hours away.

Taco Bell, a U.S.-based fast food chain serving Mexican-inspired meals, is finally coming to Medicine Hat.

Rumours began swirling about the future of Taco Bell opening in the city after a sign was posted at a south end property.

A spokesperson for Taco Bell Canada told CHAT News the Medicine Hat location is slated to open in December at 1071 Ross Glen Dr. SE.

The confirmation comes after a new Taco Bell was opened in Cold Lake.
