Best Chipotle location in the city?

I swear the quality at Chipotle has gone down. Not sure if it’s because I always order online for pick up? For me, it’s never made right and doesn’t taste the same. Any similar experiences?

Hmmm I’ll state the obvious. The people who work the fast food restaurant in the city don’t give a f***. It’s one thing not to be an all star and care about your work but it’s another when the actual product and experience is changed. I don’t have an issue in the Chicago Suburbs as much as in the city. I would never eat out unless at a restaurant in the city for that reason.

🙄 hate to break it to you but restaurant workers in the suburbs don't care either.

Yep. They don’t skimp and they work so fast at all times. It’s never taken them longer than a minute to make my whole bowl, bag it up, and check out.

I went to the one on Belmont and Broadway A LOT. I don't live in that hood anymore and think the location closed down, but it has a very special place in my heart. The people there were amazing and very generous. They knew me and would start making my usual order as soon as I walked in. Once, the store manager called me and was like you're such a loyal customer we think you should enter our raffle for a free burrito party for you and 10 friends. So I did, and I "magically" won. They also would give me my order "on the house" around the holidays.

Seconding this. That location is fucking awful.

Yes it’s because you order for pickup so they skimp on the ingredients!

I always go to the one in bucktown but you have to order in person. Their delivery/pre-order food is significantly worse than the quality you get ordering in person. It’s kind of funny cause in person you can see them rush/half-ass the delivery orders as they come through to get to your in person order which gets the love and attention it deserves

As a Chicagan who moved to Scotland where there is no Chipotle, this saddens me.

Also sharing don’t order Potbelly from the Presidential Towers location. Ever.

The one just south of 500 W Madison used to be fire. Haven’t been in a while tho

The North Ave Old Town one is bad
