The convenience store chain said Tuesday that it is opening a Laredo Taco store with a drive-through in Dallas. Laredo Taco locations can usually be found in the 7-Eleven stores themselves. This is the first drive-thru for the club chain, as well as the first drive-thru in a corporate-owned 7-Eleven store. Customers can order Slurpees, in addition to the Laredo Taco menu items, which include a variety of tacos, side dishes and fresh water.
“Customers looking for socially distant ways to have breakfast, lunch and dinner will really appreciate [the drive-thru] now, “said Chris Tanco, chief operating officer at 7-Eleven, in a statement.
The new drive-thru is connected to one of 7-Eleven’s Evolution stores, where the chain launches new drinks and offers unique flavors. Entering customers will find special self-service coffees, freshly baked cakes and a selection of wines and craft beers, as well as mobile checkout for users of the rewards program.
