Jack in the Box tries late-night delivery

Jack in the Box is trying a different approach to delivery in the San Francisco Bay Area, teaming up with a third party to provide the service until 3 a.m.

The quick-service chain features a separate late-night menu, called Jack’s Munchie Meals. But customers in the Bay Area will be able to order off the chain’s entire bill of fare.

Delivery via DoorDash will begin at the start of the chain’s regular hours.

Late-night delivery offers will be touted in a new ad campaign running though the fall, Jack in the Box said.
