The US fast-food chain, which is already popular in Wales, is preparing to open a string of new restaurants across the UK
The much loved US fast-food chain Carl’s Jr. is set to shake up the UK market with ambitious expansion plans, announcing a slew of new openings across the nation.
Currently, Carl’s Jr. ‘s only UK outpost is nestled in Cardiff, Wales.
This year, the chain is poised to bolster its British presence with six fresh venues, marking its inaugural foray into England – including a double debut in Yorkshire.
Burger enthusiasts are heaping praise on the brand’s succulent selections, with many hailing their burgers as “easily better” than those from familiar giants like McDonald’s and Burger King.
According to The Sun, the forthcoming locations will pop up in Swansea, Southampton, Bristol, Manchester, York, and Leeds
Swansea locals can expect their Carl’s Jr. to open by the end of August, while Southampton and Manchester are slated to greet their own branches come October.
Details on the launch dates for the other sites remain tantalisingly under wraps, as part of Carl’s Jr. ‘s grand plan to launch 100 outlets across the UK over the next five years.
Specifics regarding future venues and exact spots are yet to be disclosed.
In a thrilling twist for burger lovers, Carl’s Jr. is teasing the addition of a novel burger to its summer menu later this month.
Moreover, all new establishments will feature a breakfast menu and offer delivery via Uber Eats.
Since its inception in 1941, Carl’s Jr. has expanded its empire to over a thousand locations across the USA and has landed in 28 different countries.
This fast-food behemoth is celebrated for its signature dishes such as the Western Bacon Cheeseburger and Famous Star, not to mention their sinfully indulgent ice cream shakes.
Carl’s Jr. has captivated a global following of burger aficionados, with many rating it above other top fast-service restaurants.
Online, Reddit threads are full of fans singing praises of their Carl’s Jr. experiences.
One satisfied customer extolled the chain, remarking, “significantly better than anything McDonald’s or Burger King could do”.
Another enthusiast chimed in: “Carls JR is easily better than McDonald’s Burger King and probably most of the other American fast food chains you have currently in the United Kingdom.”
A Cardiff diner went as far as to declare it the provider of the “best burger I’ve ever had”.
