Zellers food truck menu announced: What’s coming to the ‘diner on wheels’

By CityNews Staff

The results are in, and we now know what foods will be featured on the Zellers food truck menu when the “diner on wheels” hits the road in the spring.

Canadians were asked to vote in a poll to decide what would be included in this nostalgia-inspired menu, with the top five most popular foods set to make a comeback.

A Zellers spokesperson says the food trucks will celebrate the opening of Zellers within Hudson’s Bay stores and the launch of Zellers.ca, appearing over several days in the spring.

The five winners are the “Big Z Burger,” “Hot Chicken Sandwich,” “Grilled Cheese,” “Chicken Fingers,” and “Fries and Gravy.”

Zellers confirmed that the retro, in-store diner “isn’t possible” in a 10,000-square-foot space, noting that Zellers will mobilize a fleet of food trucks to greet customers at its first locations. If customers embrace the comeback, the retailer said the Zellers diner on wheels would head out for its cross-Canada debut.

Tour dates and locations are to be shared at a later date.

Zellers stores in Ottawa

Zellers  unveiled the first 25 locations for its new in-store experience inside Hudson's Bay Stores, including two in Ottawa and one in Gatineau. 

The Hudson's Bay locations at the St. Laurent Centre, the Rideau Centre and Les Promenades Gatineau will house the new Zellers stores, which will be between 8,000 and 10,000 square feet in size. 

The brick-and-mortar locations will also complement the first-ever Zellers.ca e-commerce site, which is set to be launched simultaneously, sometime in the spring of 2023.
