It has seemed like eons—yes, actual, dictionary-defined eons—since we first heard the glorious news that Taco Bell was coming to Williston. Fast-forward through what felt like a lifetime of impatient stomach growls, and today, it’s finally official: Taco Bell has broken ground in Williston Square!
Twelve Shovels, One Dream: Taco Bell’s Williston Journey Begins
The honors were performed by twelve individuals, each of whom was armed with a shovel. These individuals included city officials, dignitaries, and developers, and they convened at the location this morning to ceremonially place several shovels in the ground.—AKA the universal sign that stuff is happening. The crowd may have been small, but the excitement was extra-large, much like the Crunchwrap Supremes we’ll soon be devouring.

There were handshakes, smiles, and maybe even a few whispered orders of “one Beefy 5-Layer Burrito, no sour cream” in anticipation. As the ceremonial dirt flew, so did dreams of late-night snack runs, sauce packets with sassy sayings, and the sweet, sweet sound of a drive-thru speaker crackling to life.
“Welcome to Williston, Taco Bell!” we shout with open arms and empty stomachs. And to whoever gets the honor of being the very first customer—move aside, friend. I’ve had my order memorized since 2022.
So here’s to chalupas, cinnamon twists, and a whole new era of fast food in Williston North Dakota. Let the countdown begin!
