Taco Bell

They got my order right, but I don’t give 5 stars based on some minor things. My food was made by an obvious new guy, so I expected my order to come slow but still «by the book» the food was great, no complaints there. The manager was an older lady who’s a bit scatterbrained I guess, so it made the interaction a bit awkward. I wasn’t paying attention if she washed her hands after sneezing which was also a little awkward, she didn’t cook any of my food so I wasn’t really worried, plus they wear gloves.

Nope, not having it. The floors were sticky and the tables were dirty. Cashier was nice enough, but the guy who gave me my food was pretty rude. Not a number call out or even an abrupt, «Hey!» He just kept shaking my bag at me with this glare. Thanks a lot, dude. I know sometimes jobs suck, but no need to be overly rude when all I ordered was chips and dip.

It’s Taco Bell. I’m obviously not writing a review based on the quality of the food. The food, however, is cheap and the staff rather friendly. Depending upon your ability to handle obnoxious drunks, you may or may not want to come here late at night or in the mornings of home football games. Depending on the number of drunks who recently ate here, the place may be relatively clean or nastier than the floor of a truck stop bathroom. Granted, if you’re one of the drunk students (or townies) you may not care that you can’t leave the booth because your shoes are stuck to the floor and your clothes to the seat. Aside from the absolute ridiculousness of this place during prime drunk feeding times, the staff is great and they put up with a lot. They are always friendly and get the food out fast. I shouldn’t have to tell you about the quality of the food. Since it’s fast food, it tastes good but that pile of vomit that the frat boy left by the door may have more nutritional value than your entire meal. That being said, it is cheap and the staff is nice so make it a stop the next time you’re stumbling home from the bars.

No. No. No. And No.
Why, oh why does this have 4.5 stars? There are an infinite number of other places for ACTUAL Mexican food in Chauncey Village. The only thing it has going for it are the late opening hours. I wouldn’t feed this to my neighbor’s evil dog. Please visit the tastier local establishments instead.

I totally agree with the other reviews… The food here taste like any other taco bell but the amazing thing about this place is the people that you can see stumbling in looking for some food hahaha! It was so entertaining! I really admire the people working there because I cannot be easy dealing with so many drunk people every night…

Have you ever wondered what hell in the food industry is? It must surely be working at this Taco Bell. Who doesn’t like a ton of cheap Mexican food after a long night of drinking? For this reason, Taco Bell wins the pride award for the most patient, most reliable late-​night fast food. I thoroughly enjoy Taco Bell, and the fact that they are fast and cheap makes it all the better. Lines tend to go out the door during busy party nights, i.e., Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. It gets very hectic in the restaurant, but the employees take it in stride. I have no complaints about this Taco Bell.

This is such a strange Taco Bell. I love it. Let alone the random, icy cold room in the back that has some tables and books (???), there are so many unique individuals you can meet at this location. But the brilliant local culture here aside (as others have discussed it at length), I should note that the food here, for some reason, does taste better than other Taco Bells. Also, the service has always been great.

I don’t usually review fast food, but this Taco Bell is not about the food. It’s about the sprit of camaraderie that accompanies late-​night drunk food in this place. Being so close to the bars, this Taco Bell cleans up on weekend late nights when students make the run for the border. I have never been to a fast food restaurant with a «reading room» that has a faux fireplace and pleather couch with two bookshelves full of the worst romance and action novels ever written. It’s worth checking out the back room for a good laugh, and it’s even more amusing during finals week when the study tables in back are full of excellent students with taco munchies.

Its taco bell! You have to check out the books in the back, and sit by the fake fireplace on the cracked fake leather couch. I’ve never seen that in another taco bell. Its also funny to watch the drunk people.

DEFINITELY a place to absorb local culture.
As anyone who appreciates fine dining can attest to, Taco Bell is a delightful reset to your palate whenever you’re down. She’s like the sketchy friend you’ve always loved hanging out with but are a little embarrassed about in the company of good people.
I write this beaming review of this taco bell because the food is significantly better than your gas station variety taco bell, and the atmosphere is really something to see. On any given Friday, Saturday, or even tuesday night it gets pretty wild after 1 am. Guaranteed to observe drunk college students, mess with their heads, and finish up by telling them how you’ve never had a friend like them in your life (it really doesn’t matter if you’ve only known them 5 minutes) Just hope they don’t find out you’re f*ing with them, or things could get ugly.
To top out all of this they have a fairly swanky (by Taco Bell standards at least) are in the back with a faux fireplace and books. What books are doing at Taco Bell I don’t know, but this too is awesome.
A must visit location on any trip to Purdue!

This is the greatest Taco Bell I’ve ever been to!!! To be honest I’ve never been there sober, but of all the drunk Taco Bell raids I’ve been on, this was by far the best. I know its taco bell so its pretty much the same wherever you go, but at least it was clean, the people spoke English, and the service was quick. At 2 or 3 in the morning though, there is an insanely long line though.

It’s Taco Bell. How good can it be? Well, when you’re coming back from Chauncey Hill after a night on the town, it’s delicious! If you go to Purdue, you don’t need Unilocal to tell you to go to this Taco Bell for some great drunk food. I’ve never seen such long lines for fast food before. Get the temporary tattoos in the bathroom and enjoy the faux-​den they have in the back.

This is a great Taco Bell. The Purdue paintings on the wall make it that much cooler. If you come here at 3 a.m. on any given night, the line is out the door of ridiculous college kids. Always a blast.
