COSTA MESA, Calif., Nov. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This holiday season, El Pollo Loco is bringing back their wildly popular “12 Days of Pollo”* celebration! Loco Rewards members can unlock a new holiday deal every day from December 1 through December 12 as El Pollo Loco kicks off the fourth annual 12 Days of Pollo. The nation’s leading fire-grilled chicken restaurant begins its seasonal promotion with daily deals that range from savory burritos and quesadillas to their famous chicken meals.
“Our ‘12 Days of Pollo’ is a beloved annual tradition for our Loco Rewards Members, and this year we’ve added a few special surprises to provide even more value to our fans,” said Jill Adams, Chief Marketing Officer at El Pollo Loco. “This initiative is more than just a way to celebrate the season – it’s our way of giving back to our loyal guests with flavorful meals that fuel holiday festivities and bring families and friends together. That’s the true spirit of the holidays.”
These limited time offers are exclusive to Loco Rewards Members as a “thank you” for being loyal customers and fans. And if you’re not a member, don’t worry!
