New Drive-Thru Chipotle Opens on Cortez Road in Bradenton
Bradenton’s dining scene just got a boost with the grand opening of a new Chipotle Mexican Grill at 5002 Cortez Road W. This latest location of the popular fast-casual chain brings an exciting new feature to the area: a Chipotlane. The innovative drive-thru pickup lane allows customers to grab their digital orders without leaving their cars, offering both convenience and speed for busy diners.
Occupying the site of the former Boston Market, this is Chipotle’s second Bradenton location. The restaurant offers the full lineup of Chipotle favorites, including customizable burritos, burrito bowls, tacos, and salads, along with chips, guacamole, queso, and a variety of beverages. Guests can create their own bowls with options for protein, rice, beans, and toppings tailored to their taste.
To mark the opening, the new location is featuring a limited-time menu item: Mexican-inspired smoked brisket, giving local foodies something special to try.
Chipotle’s hours at the new location are 10:45 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, providing ample opportunity for lunch, dinner, or a late-night bite.
Founded by Steve Ells in 1993, Chipotle started as a single restaurant in Denver, Colorado, with a vision of offering fresh, high-quality ingredients in a fast-casual setting. Now headquartered in Newport Beach, California, the company has grown to more than 3,200 locations worldwide, becoming a leader in the movement toward responsibly sourced and sustainable ingredients.
Chipotle continues to innovate, from its popular rewards program to its focus on digital ordering and delivery options. With the addition of the Chipotlane on Cortez Road, this location is set to serve Manatee County residents with convenience and signature flavors in a modern and accessible way.
Whether you’re craving a hearty burrito or a light salad, this new Chipotle location promises to deliver with its fresh ingredients, fast service, and unique drive-thru option.
