West Goshen Qdoba Restaurant Survives Nationwide Cuts

Story by Sam Strike

The Qdoba location on West Chester Pike in West Goshen is alive and bueno, gracias. It is not among the many Qdba restaurant locations that were recently closed.

Jack in the Box Inc., the restaurant's parent company, announced plans to shutter 67 of the franchises nationwide. The company explained that, after conducting a comprehensive market review, it decided to close down some of its underperforming stores. 

“By closing these locations and optimizing our company footprint, we can be more effective in focusing our advertising and marketing resources to support existing and planned restaurants in our core markets where we have high levels of brand awareness,” Qdoba president Tim Casey said in a statement at the time.

Regionally, locations in Bryn Mawr, Wynnewood, Plymouth Meeting and Glen Mills were closed.

Qdoba announced the closures in a July 2 message on its Facebook page.

"It has been great serving you, and we thank you for your patronage at these restaurants. We’re still serving up your favorites at our other Philadelphia area locations."
