Taco Bell is coming to this closed Alabama restaurant location
PRATTVILLE − A closed restaurant building in Prattville is getting a new life.
Taco Bell is coming to the former Steak 'n Shake building, in the 2300 block of Cobbs Ford Road, City Hall confirms via social media. It will be the city's second Taco Bell location, with the first being located in the 400 block of South Memorial Drive.
"New investment is always important," Amy Coats Hilliard posted on social media while sharing the city's announcement. She serves as Prattville's economic development coordinator. "Filling an empty building is even better."
The former Steak 'n Shake location is next to the closed Milo's location, which is next to a former O'Charleys. The three restaurants have been closed for about two years.

The buildings sit in the middle of some of the city's hottest real estate, in a part of east Prattville that has long been a retail hotspot.
Things looking up for the area. Bojangles opened in the old Milos building in December, and First Watch is currently renovating the O'Charleys location.
Opening dates for the Taco Bell and First Watch locations have not been released.
