About Jack in the Box

Jack in the Box has always been the place for those who live outside the box. We are actively growing across the country with potential opportunities in all 50 states.


How Long Have We Been in Business?
Jack in the Box was founded in 1951 and has developed a loyal customer base with a strong reputation for thinking outside the box when it comes to fast food.

How Many Dayparts Do We Serve?
Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Late Night, Snacks. No matter when cravings strike - we have your customers covered with all five dayparts.

When Do Our Restaurants Close?
Never! We’re available 24/7 with an all-day, everyday menu to further set us apart from the competition. In fact, it’s our accessibility that has driven our strong performance, especially during our breakfast and late-night dayparts.

What Makes Jack in the Box Different?
Our menu sets us apart based on our original approach to bold flavor fusions, variety, authenticity, attention to quality, and fresh preparation. While our burgers remain our #1 selling menu item, we also have a unique product line in relation to our competition. For example, the Sourdough Jack and Jumbo Jack are some of our best-selling burgers. However, we're also well-known for our tacos and 24-hour breakfast menu. Add in the variety of chicken sandwiches, egg rolls, breakfast sandwiches, salads, stuffed jalapenos, old-fashioned shakes, and our famous curly fries - you can see why we're different from other traditional burger franchise concepts.
