September 26, 2013

The Party Starts at 9 p.m. with 4 Brand New Entrées Perfect for a Late Night Foody Call

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep. 26, 2013-- Hunger has no curfew, and can strike at any time of night. Luckily, Jack in the Box® has developed the cure to mellow even the meanest manifestation of the munchies – Jack’s Munchie Meal™. Late night lovers can choose from 4 different perfectly packaged menu options, complete with sides and a drink; it’s a Jack-sized ton of food for just $6.00, plus tax, at participating locations.

The party starts at 9 p.m. when things at Jack in the Box get a little twisted. The beat turns up, and the purple glow from the menu board signals it’s time for Jack’s Munchie Meal™. Available nightly only after 9 p.m., every Jack’s Munchie Meal™ comes in its own box with 2 tacos, Halfsie fries (half Seasoned Curly Fries, half French Fries) and a 20 oz. drink, plus one of 4 awesome, new entrées exclusive to Jack’s late night menu:

  • Stacked Grilled Cheese Burger – Sourdough grilled cheese on top, cheeseburger on bottom. Tuck into this tasty bunk bed.
  • The Brunch Burger – A burger with a fried egg and a crispy hash brown for when it’s so late you don’t know whether it’s dinner or breakfast.
  • Exploding Cheesy Chicken Sandwich – A chicken sandwich exploding with mozzarella cheese sticks and gooey white cheese sauce. Oh my cheesy goodness.
  • Loaded Chicken Nuggets – Chicken nuggets drowning in two kinds of cheese with ranch and bacon. Rescue them!

Additionally, each entrée can be purchased separately after 9 p.m. for $4.00, plus tax, and Halfsies are always available for $2.50, plus tax, at participating locations.

"Our new late night menu was designed for the other nine-to-fivers, and we made sure it’s worthy of standing up to hunger at any time of night," said Keith Guilbault, Vice President of Menu & Innovation at Jack in the Box. "Jack in the Box is known for offering its full menu, including breakfast, all day every day. And while that still holds true, our 4 new entrées are unique to our late night menu and sure to have guests wishing it was 9 p.m. already."

Jack’s Munchie Meal™ isn’t the only thing new about the after-9 p.m. vibe at Jack in the Box. The restaurant team is pumped for late night and decked out in brand new purple and black uniforms, the music is on and the volume is up. This is a party – and it rages on ‘til 5 in the morning!
