Consolidated "Chipotle" thread

Does anyone know of any airports that have a Chipotle? I find myself often getting my burrito on the drive to the airport and eating it while I wait for my flight. A hot burrito is better though.

Specifically Chipotle? (the McDonalds entry into the Mexican food market). You can get passable burritos at SJC, PDX, LAX

Ideally yes, but any good burrito will do.
Thanks.

There are plenty of Chipotles near airports... but I do not know of any inside an airport... unfortunately. Chipotle is yummy!

Given your handle showing DEN, there's a decent place upstairs in the UA terminal (Concourse B) near Wolfgang Puck.

I also second SJC and OAK (I believe it's called 360 degrees or something).

SeaTac has a Qdoba in the food court. That's basically the same as Chipotle (I prefer it slightly)

Burrito before a flight? What a mean passenger you are!

La Salsa is in LAX in T7.

I was going to mention this one, as I vastly prefer Qdoba to Chipotle. (And I don't find Qdoba to be that good, which tells you what I think about Chipotle.)

FWIW, Chipotle is publicly held. The majority of the franchises and stock are owned by McDonald's corporate. Their management team is heavy with McDonald's executives, but it is run as a separate subsidiary.

Qdoba is 100% owned by Jack in the Box, and again is run as a separate company.

The OP must be looking for a zeppelin ride.

Not for much longer. McD's is divesting their share by the end of the year.

I found the burrito place in SJC to be nasty. Just a head's up.
