Chipotle

I usually absolutely love Chipotle and try to go there in any city that has one. But… my experience at this Chipotle was not the best. There were huge globs of fat in the barbicoa of my burrito bowl, half my chips were stale, and it was an unusually small serving of chips compared to the other Chipotle’s I’ve visited, at that. I’ll still visit Chipotle but not this particular one, I’m afraid.

Deliveroo failed us and we had a hankering for burritos.
Placing an order online was easy and I walked over in a couple of minutes. Headed to the front of the queue (only a couple of dirty looks) and paid. The burritos were then made and labeled with individual names and handed over in a sack. Service was with a smile.
The burritos were still hot when we got back and massive. My steak was nicely cooked but I question the guacamole, there was a lot and make no mistake, but there was a giant slice of avocado that hadn’t been mashed at all. It was good, but unexpected.
Good for a quick handheld lunch and I’m sure I’ll be heading there again.

Really lovely burritos, the price is great and also the customer service! All the staff were helpful and it was an overall great experience. Both the steak and chicken burritos are super yummy I would really recommend this place

I can’t believe I haven’t reviewed this Chipotle yet! It is quite simply my favourite place to get fast food in the city.
I first fell in love with Chipotle when I was on a road trip in America and we stopped in at a service station. I’d had a few too many unhealthy fast food lunches by that point and fancied something a bit lighter; a Chipotle salad bowl seemed the perfect option. It blew my mind, and when I moved to London and one opened just down the road from my work I was ecstatic!
I always get the chicken salad bowl with LOADS of veg and of course guacamole, it is absolutely delicious.
If I’m having a bad day at work and want something to cheer me up I will go to Chipotle on my lunch break. It works in the same way as a cup of tea for me, making everything just a tiny bit better.

I had a Chipotle burrito in London, because I hadn’t had even slightly passable Mexican food the whole time I was there. I figured their mediocrity would at least tide me over until I got back to the States. Worst mistake ever. You do not know the evil that is UK Chipotle. US vs UK Chipotle is the difference between stale chips and rancid feces. To eat there is to enter a world of pain.

was ok, had a burrito customised with a bottle of Corona there.
but no difference. not so generous regarding to amount for foodies like myself!

Putting aside my Americanness– this chipotle filled my wish for Mexican food in London. The rice is a bit less fluffier than American rice but it was still delicious. I got the burrito bowl with chips on the side. The chips were some of the best I have ever gotten at chipotle-​the perfect mix of rice and lime.

If you’ve been to Chipotle elsewhere then this one is no different. If you haven’t been to one then what are you waiting for? Chipotle is so far above other fast food restaurants it’s a travesty to put them in the same category. If you’re looking to get the most bang for your buck go with the burrito — the tacos won’t fit as many ingredients.

Not a real Chipotle. For some reason, they do not have sofritas in the menu! The main and key ingredient is nowhere to be seen…

A chipotle on London tastes just like one in the US. The great success factor for fast food is consistency and they have that.
Price is also good.
Bit with consistency comes mediocrity.
So enjoy without surprises.

Delicious!
I managed to pick up a handful of buy one get one free vouchers from someone handing them out in Angle. Me and my work colleague are officially hooked!
All I would say is avoid going in between 1 and 2pm as you feel so rushed and they often get the order wrong!

I know, I know. It’s a chain, and a US chain at that. But a Chipotle fan is a Chipotle fan, and I’m grateful that I can get my fix of their cilantro-​lime rice in the UK.
This branch in particular has been great. The space isn’t the best and quite tiny, but there is enough space between the top, bottom, and outside seating areas. When I had an issue with a piece of meat accidentally finding its way into my veg burrito, they rectified it right away and quite noticeably their staff are very careful with scooping.
I’ve tried other branches that have more stale ingredients and not as friendly of staff. This one has very nice staff every time I go, and it actually helps in creating a comfortable, enjoyable atmosphere. My go-​to Chipotle branch!

I ate here twice while visiting London from the US. I love that this chain is available, and in such a convenient location. I ate here at lunch time on a weekday and on a Saturday for dinner, and didn’t have a wait either time.
Four stars because they don’t have Sofritas :(. But if you get a veggie bowl, the guac is free. Still pretty expensive compared to US prices (1.5x the cost). Also the fajita veggies were a little burned, but overall it was good and close to what I’m used to from the US.

When in need of a burrito where do I go if I can’t be bothered to go on a treasure Hunt for chilango? CHIPOTLE BABY!. Anyways there’s not much to say here except avoid the guy with the funky looking glasses! He’s super stingy with the chicken. Jeeeeeeez someone’s got to explain to him that they cook it to sell it not hoard it! I was lucky to even get the taste of chicken with the miniscule amount he put in my burrito! But you know what … I went back! And the next dude was a keeper! Heaped up that chicken like it was thanksgiving! All hail chipotle

YAS YAS YAS. I use to be all over a burrito,
But recently for me, this place is all about the SALAD!!!
I use to fear it wouldn’t be filing… But trust me it is and yummy. All the goodness you can get in a Burrito laid on top of a bed of crunch lettuce.
Very yummy, little expensive (£7−8) so only go here as a treat. I know you pay for the guacamole, but their standard portion sides need a little work sometimes. A drizzle of sour cream, a little sprinkle of cheese yet a mountain of guac… Id rather I had the mountains of diary please!
Plus, I hate how prices don’t vary if you don’t get something. If I don’t get peppers, why does mine cost the same with, if I don’t get salads… Why does mine cost the same with. Very much a ‘you can get your money’s worth if you get everything’ deal.

This is a chain and boy is it a chain! A recent visit to NYC showed them almost as numerous as Starbucks. However, this was my first visit to any Chipotle. I have to confess I love Benitos Hat, so Chipotle had a fair amount to live up to. This is my assessment.
Décor: this is a. fast food joint with mostly a big table for single or side by side eating. It is pretty functional and therefore I wouldn’t be inclined to linger over a margarita. Benitos is a little more comfortable in that respect.
Service: brisk but friendly. I got a «Hola!»
Food: I had the carnitas burrito. It was fine, but I found the carnitas (pulled pork) less intense in flavour than ones at BH. All told though a perfectly good burrito. No free tortilla chips unlike Benitos.
Verdict: A-​ok but I’ll stick to Benitos when I have the chance.

Being from CA I Love me some Chipotle! There is just something magical about the taste of their burritos! Every time people are like «Oh this place is ‘like ’ chipotle»… but it never is! The lime chips and the lime rice and amazing grilled meat! Ah I could eat it all day! I just wish we had one in Scotland! (Chipotle COME TO SCOTLAND! PLEASE) Oh and their guacamole AMAZING!

Heard so much about this place and when I got to visit London last year chipotle was our first stop.
I was not disappointed, it was everything and more.
I can easily say their burrito is the best.
I’ve tried almost everything they offer with either beef or chicken and everything is good.
If you have never tried it before, do give it a try.
Easily best Mexican fast food & super friendly staff.

Best burrito I ever had!
And pretty affordable too!
To be honest, that is all I have to say about Chipotle.
I had the special chicken and it was great, very tasty and freshly made by the helpful staff. I also like the fact that you can add or remove as many ingrendients and sauces as you want it!

Let’s start this review with some truth. I live in Hawaii. Hawaii has no Chipotles. Not only is this a travesty, but it’s such a depressing fact. The only times I’ve ever been able to partake of the guacamole covered goodness that is their burrito bowls have been the times I’ve been in California, which have not been nearly enough to satisfy my insatiable hunger for quick, quality Mexican food. That is why this Chipotle was like a beacon of light cutting through the night sky and signalling my inner fatboy when I exited the Leicester Square station. The store is clean, the staff are polite, and the service is excellent. And my burrito bowl was without doubt the exact thing I needed to quell my craving. For those who have yet to experience a Chipotle restaurant, you’re able to build a burrito or bowl to your liking by customizing what ingredients (rice, beans, proteins, salsas, etc.) you want included. Just make sure you add some guacamole to your order!
Yes, it’s relatively expensive fast food. Even more so when comparing the prices back in America. But you know what? I don’t care. The food was just as good as I remembered it being… albeit thousands of miles away from where I’m used to.

Am Leicester Square hat uns der Hunger gepackt — und ins Chipotle gelockt. ich wollte eh schon immer einen Burito essen, hier ergab sich die Möglichkeit.
Nachdem die Auswahl der Zutaten getroffen wurde, habe ich auch noch bei den empfohlenen Tacos und Guacamole zugeschlagen. Und: Ich wurde nicht enttäuscht. Alles frisch, alles lecker, wahnsinnig sättigend.
Das freundliche Personal ist ein weiterer Pluspunkt, abgesehen davon ist die Atmosphäre keine typische Schnellrestaurant-​Stress-​Athmo.
Ich komme wieder :)
