West Coast burger fans in Florida, rejoice! While many have dreamed of an In-N-Out Burger making its way to the Sunshine State, another iconic West Coast chain is beating them to the punch. Jack In The Box is making a comeback, and its first new Florida location is planned for Orlando’s rapidly growing Lake Nona area.
The big news: Jack In The Box will be opening a 24-hour, 2,000-square-foot location at 10105 William Carey Drive in Lake Nona, complete with 22 seats for those who prefer to dine in. This new spot is part of the chain’s larger expansion into Florida, with plans to also open in Tallahassee.
For those who don’t know, Jack In The Box isn’t a stranger to Florida. Back in the 1970s, the chain had 279 locations across the Southeast, according to Burger Beast. But over time, those locations were sold or closed, leaving Floridians without their fix of the brand’s famous comfort foods. Fast forward to 2024, and Jack In The Box is ready to make its return—much to the delight of its fans.
