Jollibee Canada opens first Canadian restaurant in Winnipeg on December 15

The long wait is finally over and Jollibee Canada will make its Canadian debut on December 15 in Winnipeg. The company announced the grand opening date on their Jollibee Canada Facebook Page.

Filipinos have been buzzing with excitement since the first signs on the construction site were put up earlier this year. Leaked images back in the summer created a buzz on social media when Jollibee announced that Winnipeg will be opening two locations in the city. The Jollibee at 1420 Ellice Ave will be the first Jollibee restaurant to open in Canada.

As the construction progressed, new signs were replaced including the “Join our team” employee recruiting sign posted in mid-October. In recent weeks, the drive-thru menu was posted causing more buzz as people were eager to see what will be on the Jollibee Canada menu.

Welcome to Canada, Jollibee!

Is it too early to confirm my order? I'd like 10 buckets of Chicken Joy and a dozen Jolly Spaghetti meals. Oh don't forget my Peach Mango Pie! #DriveThru Thanks! #JollibeeWinnipeg A photo posted by Ron Cantiveros (@roncantiveros) on Nov 25, 2016 at 12:03pm PST
