There were a lot of rumors in the early 2000s after two Taco Bell locations closed in Juneau.
Charles McKenry poses in front of the menu at Juneau’s downtown Taco Bell in 1999. In the late ’90s, Juneau had two Taco Bells. But by the early 2000s, they were both gone. Juneau has a history of fast food franchises coming and going, but the disappearance of the Taco Bells left a lot of rumors in its wake, from “employees were selling drugs” to “wasn’t it hepatitis?”
“We were having repeated problems with the [produce] shipments,” Solano said. “We would have to throw away sour cream, cheeses, lettuce, tomatoes. They were coming in continuously frozen when they were only supposed to be refrigerated and we were having to waste a lot of money.” A smaller, Taco Bell Express restaurant shared a space with Subway in downtown Juneau before closing in 1999.
The maintenance turned into a cycle. A pipe would be fixed, the flooring would be replaced, and another pipe would collapse somewhere else. Some workers didn’t even have advance notice that the restaurant was closing. They showed up the next day to a note on the door and were told to pick up their compensation checks.
