Taco Bell

B ★ 5 $$$$

Only Taco Bell option in Concourse B

Gate-side in Terminal B at El Paso (ELP), this Taco Bell is the quick, cheap choice when you just want familiar tacos before boarding. It sits in the main B concourse near several gates, so you can watch the boarding area while they bag up your order.

Price tier is firmly $; a couple of crunchy tacos or a basic burrito usually runs under $10, which is less than some sit-down spots in the terminal. One Google reviewer summed it up: “It’s Taco Bell at the airport, exactly what you’d expect.” Card payments are standard, and you’re in and out in a few minutes during normal flow.

The menu is trimmed down compared with a full street-side Taco Bell; don’t expect every specialty box or limited-time item. You’ll reliably find simple tacos, bean burritos, and a few value combos, enough for a fast fill-up before your flight from B gates. Portion sizes match normal Taco Bell stores, not the shrunken “snack” plates some airports serve.

Regulars keep it basic: two or three tacos or a bean burrito that survives a 90‑minute hop without falling apart. If you know you’ll eat on the plane, skip anything overloaded with sauces or extras; simple crunchy or soft tacos travel better in a tight E175 seat row.

Watch out during peak bank times around early morning and late afternoon departures in Terminal B. Reviews mention items slapped together sloppily when there’s a line 8–10 people deep, and accuracy drops when they’re rushing. Check your bag at the counter before you walk back to Gate B and realize they missed a taco.

Tip: if your connection is under 40 minutes and you’re departing from B, mobile-order on the walk down the concourse (if available) or hit this Taco Bell only if the line is under five people.
