Zaxby’s is planned for 1287 W. Granada Blvd.
Ormond Beach will soon have another fast food option in town. The city has approved a site plan for a Zaxby’s which will be located on 1287 W. Granada Blvd., next to the VyStar Credit Union. The restaurant will have a drive-thru, all allowed under its
current Commercial B-8 zoning. Construction is expected to begin in April. This will be the only Zaxby’s in the greater Daytona Beach area. The nearest ones are currently located in DeLand and Palm Coast. A Zaxby’s used to be located on 250 S. Atlantic Ave. in Ormond, but has since closed.
