Wynnewood, Bryn Mawr Qdoba Locations Close

Qdoba, we hardly knew ye.    

On July 3, two of the restaurant's three locations in Lower Merion Township—Bryn Mawr and Wynnewood—closed down. The Bala Cynwyd location of the popular Mexican grill remains open.

While Qdoba representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment, in June, 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.

In addition to the Bryn Mawr Square and and Wynnewood closings, the Plymouth Meeting and Glen Mills locations were culled as well.

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."
