Taco Bell has been set to open a new restaurant at the Applegreen service station in Paulstown, County Kilkenny before the end of 2026. The forecourt operator confirmed the Mexican-inspired fast-food spot will open before the end of the year. Recruitment is underway for team member positions at the location.
The restaurant will be situated at the Applegreen plaza in Paulstown along the M9 motorway route connecting Dublin and Waterford. The rollout is part of a four-store expansion plan across Ireland. The other three late-2026 locations include Inchicore and Swords in Dublin alongside Tuam Road in Galway.
The simultaneous launch of the four regional outlets is expected to create 80 new jobs across the country. Customers can expect Taco Bell’s signature items including the Crunchy Taco, burritos, quesadillas and the Crunchwrap Supreme.
