Milpas Carl’s Jr. Reopens

For about five months, the lower Eastside’s Carl’s Jr. had been undergoing a renovation set to give the chain’s Milpas location a new facelift. On Wednesday, January 9, Carl’s Jr. opened its doors to welcome the community to its new and improved home. One of the first things you will notice is the welcoming environment. The Milpas Street Carl’s Jr. has better indoor lighting then before, and the windows are built to maximize the sunlight coming in. The sitting is more spacious as well. Long gone are the times when this fast food restaurant was crowded with tables taking up a lot of room. It seems that now, patrons have room to breath and stretch.

Other changes include the newly constructed restroom. It’s bigger and it allows for more then one person at a time. Definitely a welcomed addition. If you’ve ever visited the Carl’s Jr. location in Carpinteria, you will notice the staff is friendly and brings your food to your table. Not every location has this service but it is a service that is included in the newly reopened Carl’s Jr. About 60 employees are currently working here, more so then in the previous incarnation of the establishment, and that means a boost in jobs for locals. Employees seem genuinely happy, and with a state of the art facility, who wouldn’t?

The dual-branded Carl’s Jr./Green Burrito will reopen with a new addition to its breakfast menu: Hardee’s^® Made from Scratch Biscuits™. The rebuilt restaurant has been tooled up to include a biscuit-making station. This means that the biscuits are made fresh in the restaurant every morning so make sure you stop by and get yours today.
