Chipotle Menu With Prices, Calories & Guide November 2026

Chipotle built its name on a simple idea: a short menu, fresh ingredients, and a burrito or bowl assembled in front of you exactly the way you want it. You pick a base — burrito, bowl, tacos, quesadilla, or salad — then a protein, then rice, beans, salsas, and toppings, and the price follows the protein you choose. This guide lays out the full Chipotle menu with typical prices and calories for November 2026, from the chicken burrito and the steak bowl to the quesadilla, the lifestyle bowls, chips and guacamole, the kids menu, and drinks, so you can compare options before you reach the counter.

Chipotle opened its first restaurant in Denver, Colorado, in 1993, and today it runs more than 3,600 locations across the United States. Most restaurants open around 10:45 AM and close around 10:00 PM, though hours vary by location, and many stay open later on Friday and Saturday nights. The menu has stayed deliberately small for three decades: five proteins — chicken, steak, barbacoa, carnitas, and sofritas — plus a veggie option, two rices, two beans, four salsas, and a short list of toppings. That small menu is the reason the price list is easy to understand once you know the pattern: chicken and sofritas cost the least, steak costs the most, and guacamole and queso are the two extras that add the most to your total.

One thing to know before the tables: Chipotle sets prices restaurant by restaurant, so the same burrito can cost noticeably more in a big city than in a small town, and app or delivery prices often sit a dollar or two above the in-store menu. The numbers on this page are ballpark figures for November 2026, gathered from Chipotle’s own ordering site and other public menu listings — a planning aid, not a quote for the restaurant nearest you. Anything that rests on one listing alone, or on delivery prices only, is flagged with ‘about’ or ‘roughly’ so you know it is an estimate.

Burritos

The burrito is the dish Chipotle was built on: a large flour tortilla wrapped around your choice of rice, beans, protein, salsa, and toppings. It is the most filling single item on the menu, because the tortilla alone adds about 320 calories, and it is also the best way to judge the price ladder — chicken and sofritas sit at the bottom, carnitas and barbacoa in the middle, and steak at the top. Every burrito includes your choice of rice, beans, salsa, cheese, sour cream, lettuce, and fajita vegetables at no extra charge; only guacamole and queso blanco cost extra.

Item Price Calories Notes
Chicken Burrito $9.20–$10.40 700–1,100 Most-ordered burrito; adobo chicken with your choice of rice, beans, and toppings
Steak Burrito $10.60–$11.90 750–1,150 Most expensive burrito; grilled steak, roughly $1.40 more than chicken
Barbacoa Burrito $10.20–$11.50 700–1,100 Slow-braised beef; rich and the second-priciest protein
Carnitas Burrito $9.90–$11.20 700–1,050 Slow-braised pork; a middle-price option
Sofritas Burrito $9.20–$10.40 650–1,000 Plant-based tofu braised with peppers; same price as chicken, vegan-friendly
Veggie Burrito $8.50–$9.80 650–1,000 Fajita vegetables and guacamole included; the cheapest burrito on the menu
Add Guacamole to any burrito $2.95–$3.65 230 The priciest add-on; free with a veggie burrito or veggie bowl
Add Queso Blanco to any burrito $2.35–$2.95 120 Cheaper than guacamole; also available as a side with chips

Pro Diner Tip: if you want the most food for the money, order the chicken burrito with black beans and fajita vegetables, and skip the guacamole — the beans and vegetables are free, and the guacamole alone adds about a third to the price. If you do want guacamole, the veggie burrito includes it free, which makes it the cheapest way to get it on a burrito. And if you are choosing between chicken and steak, remember the gap is only about $1.40, so steak is a reasonable treat rather than a budget-breaker.

Value analysis: burritos run from about $8.50 for a veggie burrito to about $11.90 for a steak burrito, with the tortilla, rice, beans, and most toppings included. The real cost driver is the extras: guacamole at $2.95 to $3.65 and queso at $2.35 to $2.95 can push a $9.20 chicken burrito past $13. Calories follow the same pattern — a plain chicken burrito can stay near 700, while the same burrito with cheese, sour cream, and guacamole passes 1,100.

Burrito Bowls & Lifestyle Bowls

The burrito bowl is the same build as a burrito without the tortilla, which makes it the most popular order for anyone watching calories or carbs: dropping the tortilla saves about 320 calories and a little money at some locations, though the bowl and the burrito usually cost the same for the same protein. The lifestyle bowls are pre-set combinations aimed at specific diets — keto, paleo, Whole30, high protein, vegetarian, and vegan — and they are built from the same ingredients, just arranged to fit a diet’s rules.

Item Price Calories Notes
Chicken Burrito Bowl $9.20–$10.40 500–900 Same build as the burrito minus the tortilla; the most-ordered bowl
Steak Burrito Bowl $10.60–$11.90 550–950 Steak bowl; same price ladder as the burrito
Barbacoa Burrito Bowl $10.20–$11.50 500–900 Slow-braised beef in a bowl
Carnitas Burrito Bowl $9.90–$11.20 500–900 Slow-braised pork in a bowl
Sofritas Burrito Bowl $9.20–$10.40 450–850 Plant-based; vegan-friendly with no cheese or sour cream
Veggie Burrito Bowl $8.50–$9.80 450–850 Guacamole included free; the cheapest bowl
Keto Salad Bowl $10.50–$12.00 500–650 Supergreens, chicken, tomatillo-red salsa, cheese, and guacamole; no rice or beans
Whole30 Salad Bowl $10.50–$12.00 500–700 Supergreens, chicken, fajita vegetables, tomatillo-green salsa, and guacamole
Paleo Salad Bowl $10.50–$12.00 500–700 Supergreens, chicken, fajita vegetables, tomatillo-green salsa, and guacamole
High Protein Bowl $11.00–$12.50 700–850 Double chicken or steak with white rice, black beans, and cheese; the priciest bowl listed
Veggie Full Bowl $9.50–$10.80 500–750 White rice, black beans, fajita vegetables, salsas, and guacamole

Pro Diner Tip: the bowl is the easiest way to cut calories without cutting food — skipping the tortilla saves about 320 calories and you still get the full portion of rice, beans, and protein. If you are ordering a lifestyle bowl, check the ingredients first: the keto bowl skips rice and beans entirely, while the Whole30 and paleo bowls skip cheese and sour cream as well. And if you want double protein, expect roughly $2.50 to $3.50 extra — cheaper than a second entree, but it pushes a bowl past $13.

Value analysis: bowls cost the same as burritos for the same protein, from about $8.50 for a veggie bowl to about $11.90 for a steak bowl, with the lifestyle bowls running a little higher at $10.50 to $12.50 because they include guacamole and premium greens. The value case for a bowl is not price but calories: the same toppings that push a burrito past 1,100 calories keep a bowl under 900. The high protein bowl at $11.00 to $12.50 is the exception — it costs more, but it carries roughly double the protein of a regular bowl.

Tacos

Chipotle sells tacos in sets of three, on soft flour or crispy corn tortillas, and they are the lightest of the full entrees — three tacos carry less food than a burrito, but they also carry fewer calories, and they cost a little less. The fillings are the same five proteins and the veggie option, and each taco holds a smaller portion of rice, beans, and toppings than a burrito does. Tacos suit a lighter lunch or a first-time visitor who wants to taste two proteins, since you can mix fillings across the three tacos at some locations.

Item Price Calories Notes
Chicken Tacos (3) $8.75–$9.95 500–750 Soft flour or crispy corn tortillas; the most-ordered tacos
Steak Tacos (3) $10.10–$11.40 550–800 Most expensive tacos; grilled steak
Barbacoa Tacos (3) $9.85–$11.10 500–750 Slow-braised beef
Carnitas Tacos (3) $9.55–$10.80 500–750 Slow-braised pork
Sofritas Tacos (3) $8.75–$9.95 450–700 Plant-based; same price as chicken tacos
Veggie Tacos (3) $8.25–$9.45 450–700 Guacamole included free; the cheapest tacos
Single Taco (add-on) Varies by location — Sold individually at some locations; price not consistently published, confirm locally

Pro Diner Tip: tacos are the best choice when you want Chipotle but not a full burrito — three tacos with chicken run about 500 to 750 calories, roughly half a loaded burrito, and they cost about a dollar less. If you are hungry enough for a burrito, though, the tacos are not a saving: a burrito gives you more food for roughly the same money. Crispy corn tortillas hold up better than soft flour if you are taking the tacos to go, because they stay crisp longer.

Value analysis: tacos run from about $8.25 for veggie to about $11.40 for steak, slightly below burritos and bowls for the same protein. The price gap is small — a chicken taco set at $8.75 to $9.95 is only about fifty cents cheaper than a chicken burrito — so the real difference is portion size, not price. If you finish three tacos and still feel hungry, the burrito was the better buy; if three tacos fill you up, you saved a little money and several hundred calories.

Quesadillas

The quesadilla is Chipotle’s newest full entree, and it is the only one that comes with sides built in: every quesadilla arrives with three sides of your choice, usually salsas, sour cream, and guacamole. A large flour tortilla is pressed flat with melted cheese and your protein, then cut into triangles, so it eats more like a grilled sandwich than a burrito. It costs a little more than a burrito with the same protein, because the cheese is heavier and the sides are included.

Item Price Calories Notes
Chicken Quesadilla $10.25–$11.60 900–1,200 Most-ordered quesadilla; served with three sides of your choice
Steak Quesadilla $11.50–$12.90 950–1,250 Most expensive quesadilla; grilled steak with melted cheese
Barbacoa Quesadilla $11.10–$12.50 900–1,200 Slow-braised beef with cheese
Carnitas Quesadilla $10.85–$12.20 900–1,200 Slow-braised pork with cheese
Sofritas Quesadilla $10.25–$11.60 850–1,150 Plant-based; same price as chicken
Veggie Quesadilla $9.75–$11.00 850–1,150 Fajita vegetables and cheese; guacamole as a side costs extra
Cheese Quesadilla (plain) Varies by location — Cheese only; not listed everywhere, confirm locally

Pro Diner Tip: the quesadilla is the best order when you want cheese and sides without paying for them separately — the three included sides would cost several dollars on their own, so a chicken quesadilla at $10.25 to $11.60 is a better deal than it looks. Take guacamole as one of your sides rather than paying $2.95 to $3.65 for it on a burrito. And eat it while it is hot — a quesadilla goes from crisp to soft in about ten minutes, so it travels worse than a burrito.

Value analysis: quesadillas run from about $9.75 for a veggie quesadilla to about $12.90 for a steak quesadilla, the priciest full entree on the menu. The price is easier to accept once you count the three sides: guacamole, sour cream, and salsa together would add roughly $4 to $5 to a burrito order, so the quesadilla’s premium is really a bundle discount. Calories are the trade-off — the cheese and the pressed tortilla push most quesadillas past 1,000 calories before you touch the sides.

Salads

The salad is Chipotle’s lightest full entree: a bed of supergreens or romaine topped with your protein, rice, beans, and salsas, with a chipotle-honey vinaigrette on the side. It is the closest thing Chipotle sells to a diet meal, and it is the only entree where the base itself is a vegetable rather than a grain or a tortilla. A chicken salad with dressing runs about 500 to 700 calories, which is roughly half a loaded burrito, and it costs about the same as a burrito bowl with the same protein.

Item Price Calories Notes
Chicken Salad $9.20–$10.40 450–700 Supergreens or romaine with chicken; vinaigrette on the side
Steak Salad $10.60–$11.90 500–750 Grilled steak over greens
Barbacoa Salad $10.20–$11.50 450–700 Slow-braised beef over greens
Carnitas Salad $9.90–$11.20 450–700 Slow-braised pork over greens
Sofritas Salad $9.20–$10.40 400–650 Plant-based; vegan-friendly without cheese or sour cream
Veggie Salad $8.50–$9.80 400–650 Guacamole included free; the lightest and cheapest salad
Chipotle-Honey Vinaigrette (dressing) Included 220 Served with salads; ask for it on the side to control the portion

Pro Diner Tip: the dressing is the hidden calorie trap in this section — a full cup of chipotle-honey vinaigrette adds 220 calories, nearly half the salad itself, so ask for it on the side and use half. If you want the salad to fill you up like a bowl, add rice and beans: they are free with a salad just as they are with a burrito. And if you are choosing between a salad and a bowl, the salad wins on calories only if you skip the rice — with rice and beans added, the two are nearly identical.

Value analysis: salads cost the same as burrito bowls for the same protein, from about $8.50 for a veggie salad to about $11.90 for a steak salad, which means you are paying the same money for less food by weight — greens are lighter than rice. The value case is health, not quantity: a chicken salad at 450 to 700 calories is the lightest full entree Chipotle sells. If your goal is the most food per dollar, the burrito wins; if your goal is the fewest calories per dollar, the salad wins.

Chips, Guacamole & Sides

Chips are the one item on the Chipotle menu that most people buy as an add-on rather than a meal, and they are also the item where the prices climb fastest once you start adding dips. A bag of chips on its own is one of the cheapest things in the restaurant, but chips with guacamole cost more than twice as much, and a large chips with large guacamole costs more than a kids meal. The chips are fried in-house and salted with lime, and they come in a regular size and a large size that holds roughly twice as much.

Item Price Calories Notes
Chips $2.05–$2.55 570 Cheapest item on the menu; fried in-house with lime and salt
Large Chips $3.35–$3.85 850 Roughly double the regular chips
Guacamole (side) $2.95–$3.65 230 Hand-mashed avocado; the priciest side
Queso Blanco (side) $2.35–$2.95 120 White cheese dip
Chips & Guacamole $4.90–$5.85 800 Most-ordered side combo
Chips & Queso Blanco $4.45–$5.35 690 Cheaper than chips and guacamole
Large Chips & Large Guacamole $7.50–$8.75 1,080 Built for sharing; more than a kids meal
Large Chips & Large Queso Blanco $6.50–$7.75 970 Built for sharing
Tortilla on the Side around $0.50 320 Extra flour tortilla; approximate, varies by location
Extra Rice or Beans (side) Varies by location — Sold as a side at some locations; price not consistently published

Pro Diner Tip: chips and guacamole is the side most people order, but it is also the side where the price doubles fastest — a $2.05 bag of chips becomes a $4.90 to $5.85 combo the moment guacamole joins it. If you want guacamole, the cheapest route is the veggie burrito or veggie bowl, where it is included free. And if you are sharing, the large chips with large guacamole at $7.50 to $8.75 feeds two or three people for less than two separate regular combos.

Value analysis: sides run from $2.05 for chips to $8.75 for large chips with large guacamole, and the price jumps are steep — guacamole costs more than the chips it goes with. The calories tell the same story: a bag of chips is 570 calories, and adding guacamole takes it to 800, so a side that feels light is really a small meal. Chips alone are one of the cheapest snacks in fast food; if you are watching calories, skip them and put the money toward your entree.

Kids Menu

Chipotle’s kids menu is a single build-your-own meal rather than a list of separate dishes: a child picks either two small tacos or a small quesadilla, then two sides, and the meal includes a drink. It is sized for children under 12, and it is the cheapest full meal on the menu by a clear margin. The fillings are the same proteins as the adult menu, so a child who likes chicken can have chicken, and a child who wants something plain can have cheese and rice.

Item Price Calories Notes
Kid’s Build Your Own — 2 Tacos $4.95–$5.95 350–550 Two small tacos with a choice of protein; includes two sides and a drink
Kid’s Build Your Own — Quesadilla $4.95–$5.95 400–600 Small cheese quesadilla with a choice of protein; includes two sides and a drink
Kid’s Chicken Tacos $4.95–$5.95 350–550 Most-ordered kids meal; chicken with two sides and a drink
Kid’s Cheese Quesadilla $4.95–$5.95 400–550 Cheese only; the simplest kids meal
Kid’s Organic Juice or Milk Included 60–130 Included with the kids meal; also sold separately around $2.25–$2.95

Pro Diner Tip: the kids meal is the best value on the whole menu for a family, because two tacos or a quesadilla plus two sides and a drink costs less than a single adult burrito. If your child is a light eater, the quesadilla version is the safer pick — it is easier to eat and harder to drop than two small tacos. And if your child wants guacamole, ask for it as one of the two sides: it costs extra on an adult entree, but as a kids side it is part of the flat price.

Value analysis: at $4.95 to $5.95, the kids meal costs roughly half an adult burrito and includes a drink that would cost $2.65 to $3.15 on its own, which makes it the clear value leader on the menu. Compared with ordering a regular burrito for a child and throwing half of it away, the kids meal saves several dollars. For a family of four, two adult entrees and two kids meals is the most budget-friendly way to eat at Chipotle.

Beverages

Drinks at Chipotle are simple: fountain drinks with free refills for dine-in guests, a short list of bottled drinks, and the Tractor organic lemonades and aguas frescas that have become the house specialty. There is no alcohol on the menu and no afternoon drink special, so a drink costs the same whenever you visit. Fountain drinks are the best value for dine-in guests because of the refills; bottled drinks make more sense for takeout, since a fountain cup does not travel well.

Item Price Calories Notes
Fountain Drink (free refills, dine-in) $2.65–$3.15 0–200 Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, and similar; free refills for dine-in
Tractor Organic Lemonade $3.25–$3.85 90–140 House specialty; organic lemonade in several flavors
Tractor Agua Fresca $3.25–$3.85 60–120 Fruit-infused water; lighter than lemonade
Bottled Water $2.85–$3.35 0 Still or sparkling at some locations
Mexican Coke (glass bottle) $3.50–$4.25 150 Cane sugar Coke in a glass bottle; the priciest non-alcoholic drink listed
Izze Sparkling Juice $3.25–$3.85 90–130 Sparkling fruit juice
Organic Juice (kids size) $2.95–$3.45 60–120 Included with kids meals; sold separately as well

Pro Diner Tip: for dine-in, the fountain drink is the best drink value on the menu because refills are free. If you are taking your order to go, skip the fountain cup and take a Tractor lemonade or a bottle of water instead, since a fountain drink goes flat in the bag. And if you are watching sugar, the agua fresca at 60 to 120 calories is the lightest flavored drink on the menu, well under a regular soda.

Value analysis: drinks run from $2.65 for a fountain drink to $4.25 for a Mexican Coke, and the free-refill fountain drink is the value anchor — a second refill makes it cheaper per ounce than any bottled drink. The Tractor drinks at $3.25 to $3.85 sit in the middle and are the most interesting choice, since you cannot get them at most other fast-food chains. There is no happy hour, so the drink price at lunch is the drink price at dinner.

Current Deals & Value Picks

Chipotle does not run the bundle-heavy deals that burger and pizza chains lean on — there is no two-for deal and no value menu — so the savings here come from the rewards program, the occasional free-guacamole promotion, and the structure of the menu itself. The veggie burrito and veggie bowl include guacamole free, the kids meal bundles a drink, and the fountain drink refills free for dine-in guests. Those three quiet savings are worth more than most limited-time offers.

Item Price Calories Notes
Veggie Burrito or Bowl (guacamole included) $8.50–$9.80 450–1,000 Guacamole free; the cheapest way to get guacamole on an entree
Kid’s Build Your Own (with drink) $4.95–$5.95 350–600 Cheapest full meal on the menu; includes two sides and a drink
Chicken Burrito Bowl (no extras) $9.20–$10.40 500–900 Best everyday value: full meal, no add-on charges
Chips (on their own) $2.05–$2.55 570 Cheapest item on the menu
Free guacamole promotions (periodic) Free 230 Periodic in-app offers, for example around National Avocado Day; not always running — check the app
Chipotle Rewards free entree Free Varies Earned with points from orders in the app; a free entree after enough points, not a daily deal
Fountain drink with free refills (dine-in) $2.65–$3.15 0–200 Free refills for dine-in guests

Pro Diner Tip: the best everyday deal at Chipotle is not a coupon — it is the veggie burrito or bowl, because guacamole is included free and the price is the lowest of any full entree. The second-best deal is the kids meal, which bundles two sides and a drink for under six dollars. And if you eat at Chipotle more than once a month, join the rewards program in the app: the points add up quietly, and a free entree eventually appears without you chasing a deal. The official source for menus, ordering, and rewards is Chipotle’s official site, and delivery orders are covered on our delivery menu guide.

Value analysis: put together, these picks fit most visits. Eating alone at lunch, a chicken bowl with no add-ons at $9.20 to $10.40 is the simplest route; if guacamole matters to you, the veggie burrito at $8.50 to $9.80 builds it in without the extra charge; a family can pair kids meals with two adult entrees; and a regular can let rewards points stack up toward a free entree. Watch the app for free-guacamole days, but those come and go, so check the app before you head out rather than counting on one.

FAQs

How much is a burrito at Chipotle?

A burrito typically runs $8.50 to $11.90 depending on the protein: veggie $8.50 to $9.80, chicken and sofritas $9.20 to $10.40, carnitas $9.90 to $11.20, barbacoa $10.20 to $11.50, and steak $10.60 to $11.90. Guacamole adds $2.95 to $3.65, queso blanco adds $2.35 to $2.95, and prices vary by location.

Is guacamole extra at Chipotle?

Yes, on most entrees guacamole costs $2.95 to $3.65 extra. The exceptions are the veggie burrito and veggie bowl, where guacamole is included free, and the quesadilla, where you can take guacamole as one of the three included sides. It is the priciest add-on on the menu, and it adds 230 calories.

Does Chipotle have a happy hour?

No — there is no happy hour at Chipotle. A fountain drink is $2.65 to $3.15 at any hour, and dine-in guests can refill it for free, which is the closest thing to a drink deal here. Chipotle also serves no alcohol.

What is the cheapest thing at Chipotle?

The cheapest single item is a bag of chips at $2.05 to $2.55. The cheapest full meal is the kids meal at $4.95 to $5.95, which includes two tacos or a quesadilla, two sides, and a drink. Among adult entrees, the veggie burrito and veggie bowl at $8.50 to $9.80 are the cheapest, and they include guacamole free.

Are Chipotle bowls healthier than burritos?

Yes, mostly because of the tortilla. A burrito and a bowl with the same toppings differ by about 320 calories — the tortilla alone — so a chicken bowl with rice, beans, and salsa runs about 500 to 900 calories while the same burrito runs about 700 to 1,100. The toppings matter more than the base, though: cheese, sour cream, and guacamole can add 450 calories to either one.

Does Chipotle deliver?

Yes, through the Chipotle app and website and through delivery partners. Delivery prices are usually higher than in-store prices, a delivery fee applies, and a minimum order applies at many locations, so a delivery burrito typically costs a few dollars more than the same burrito at the counter. Pickup through the app avoids the delivery fee and is the cheaper way to skip the line.

Treat the numbers on this page as a rough guide for November 2026, not a fixed menu — prices move between cities and stores, and delivery orders usually cost more than picking up. Dishes, deals, and what is actually in stock change from time to time and from one location to another, and a limited-time offer can disappear before your visit. Updated: November 2026.
