Taco Bell

Taco Bell at 1436 West Ridge Road is a fast-food restaurant operating along one of Rochester, NY's busier commercial corridors on the city's northwest side. The location serves the surrounding Maplewood-area neighborhood and nearby sections of the Town of Greece, offering both dine-in and drive-thru service. As part of the national Taco Bell chain, this West Ridge Road outpost follows the brand's Mexican-inspired quick-service format with an emphasis on affordability and late-night availability.

This location provides a full Taco Bell menu spanning breakfast through late-night hours. Core offerings include tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and nachos, along with signature items such as the Crunchwrap Supreme, Cheesy Gordita Crunch, and Mexican Pizza. Budget-conscious diners can choose from the Luxe Value Menu, which features items at $3 or less. The Cantina Chicken Menu rounds out the selection with protein-focused options. Breakfast is available during morning hours, and vegetarian-friendly items are part of the standard lineup.

Ordering options go beyond the counter and drive-thru window. Customers can place orders through the Taco Bell app or website for pickup, and delivery is available through third-party platforms like Grubhub. The restaurant accepts all major credit cards as well as cash.

This Taco Bell location is notable for its extended drive-thru hours, staying open from 7 AM until 3 AM daily — well past the 10 PM dine-in closing time. That late-night window makes it one of the later-operating food options along the West Ridge Road strip, serving the after-hours crowd in this part of Rochester.

The restaurant sits on West Ridge Road between Lake Avenue and Dewey Avenue, along a suburban-style commercial stretch that includes retail plazas, apartment complexes, and neighborhood shops. Seneca Park Zoo is a short drive to the east, and the Eastman Business Park complex lies nearby along the Genesee River. Parking is available on-site, and the drive-thru lane provides a convenient option for those passing through the corridor. The surrounding area blends residential streets with strip-style retail, giving West Ridge Road a practical, neighborhood-serving character.
