Chipotle Menu (2026): Every Item, Bowl & Ingredient
Chipotle’s menu is short by fast-food standards, and that’s the point. You pick an entrée, pick a protein, then build it your way with rice, beans, salsas and toppings. Everything below is the full current US menu — entrées, the eight Lifestyle Bowls, proteins, sides, drinks and the rotating limited-time items — with the official calorie ranges Chipotle publishes for each one.
Use this page as the map. When you want exact numbers for a specific build, run it through the Chipotle nutrition calculator on our homepage, where you can add every ingredient and watch the totals update.
Entrées
Six formats, one ingredient line. Prices and calories change based on what you load in, but the official published ranges below give you the floor and ceiling for each entrée.
Burrito
The original: a large flour tortilla (320 calories on its own) wrapped around rice, beans, a protein, salsa, and cheese or sour cream. Chipotle’s published range is 740–1,210 calories. It’s the biggest standard entrée on the menu, mostly because the tortilla alone accounts for more calories than a full serving of chicken.
Burrito Bowl
Everything in a burrito, minus the tortilla, served in a bowl. Dropping the wrap cuts the published range to 420–910 calories, which is why bowls are the default order for anyone tracking intake. We break down bowl maths protein by protein in our burrito bowl calories breakdown.
Tacos
An order is three tacos, your choice of crispy corn or soft flour tortillas, with protein, salsa, cheese or sour cream, and romaine. Published range: 390–1,140 calories for the set of three. Crispy corn shells are the lighter base at 70 calories each, against 80 for a small flour tortilla.
Quesadilla
A flour tortilla folded over melted Monterey Jack cheese and your choice of protein, fajita veggies or sofritas, served with three sides. Chipotle doesn’t publish an official calorie range for the quesadilla, so any total is worked out from its components — the burrito-size tortilla (320) and cheese (110 per ounce) do most of the damage before the filling goes in. It’s also a digital-only item at most locations: app and website orders, not the counter line.
Salad
A base of Supergreens — chopped romaine with baby kale and baby spinach — plus beans, protein, salsa, cheese and Chipotle-honey vinaigrette. Published range: 420–910 calories, same as a bowl, though the dressing deserves respect: a 2 oz serving of the vinaigrette is 220 calories by itself, more than the greens and beans combined.
Kids’ Menu
The Build Your Own kids’ meal (350–810 calories) comes with a protein, guacamole or queso, two toppings, two small tortillas, plus fruit or kids’ chips and organic juice or milk. The small cheese quesadilla meal runs 530–710 calories with rice and beans on the side.
Lifestyle Bowls
Lifestyle Bowls are preset builds designed around specific ways of eating — high protein, keto-style, Whole30, plant-based. They’re digital-only (app or chipotle.com, not the in-store line) and come exactly as specified, though you can still customise. Chipotle publishes the builds but not per-bowl totals, so the calorie figures below are calculated from Chipotle’s official per-ingredient nutrition values for each bowl’s stated build.
| Bowl | Build | Calories (calculated) |
|---|---|---|
| High Protein Bowl | White rice, black beans, double chicken, tomatillo-red chili salsa, cheese, romaine | 845 |
| Balanced Macros Bowl | Light white rice, black beans, chicken, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, guacamole, extra romaine | 700 |
| Wholesome Bowl | Supergreens, chicken, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, guacamole | 470 |
| Wholesome Bowl with Carnitas | The Wholesome build with carnitas instead of chicken | 500 |
| Grain Freedom Bowl | Supergreens, chicken, tomatillo-red chili salsa, fresh tomato salsa, sour cream, cheese | 470 |
| Plant Powered Bowl | Supergreens, white rice, sofritas, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, guacamole | 730 |
| Veggie Full Bowl | White rice, black beans, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, guacamole | 695 |
| Go Half Veggie Bowl | Half chicken, half sofritas, supergreens, white rice, fajita veggies, fresh tomato salsa, roasted chili-corn salsa, sour cream | 625 |
The two Wholesome bowls are the ones that fit Whole30 and paleo-style eating, the Grain Freedom Bowl is the current low-carb option (it replaced the old Keto Salad Bowl), and Plant Powered is fully vegan. If you order by diet rather than by bowl name, our keto guide, Whole30 guide and vegan guide walk through what works and what to skip.
Proteins
Six proteins are always on the menu. The figures below are per standard 4 oz serving from Chipotle’s official nutrition menu.
| Protein | Calories | Protein | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chicken | 180 | 32 g | 310 mg |
| Steak | 150 | 21 g | 330 mg |
| Barbacoa | 170 | 24 g | 530 mg |
| Carnitas | 210 | 23 g | 450 mg |
| Sofritas | 150 | 8 g | 560 mg |
| Veggie | Guacamole with your choice of beans, no meat — the veggie entrée itself is listed at 230 calories | ||
Chicken is the protein benchmark — highest protein per serving, middle of the pack on sodium — and we take it apart in full in the chicken nutrition breakdown. Barbacoa is the shredded-beef option, rich but the saltiest of the beef and pork choices, while carnitas (pork) carries the most fat and the most calories per serving. Sofritas, the shredded tofu option braised with chipotle chiles and poblano, is the only plant-based protein — and the only menu item flagged for soy.
On top of the regular six, Chipotle rotates limited-time proteins through the year. Right now those include Honey Chicken (back since April 2026), Pollo Asado (back since August 2026) and Smoked Brisket, which returned on 5 November 2026. Chicken al Pastor, a frequent guest, is currently off the menu. Limited-time items come and go without much warning, so if one is your order, get it while it’s listed.
Rice, Beans & Toppings
This is where a reasonable bowl quietly turns into a 900-calorie bowl. A standard 4 oz scoop of cilantro-lime white rice is 210 calories; the brown rice is also 210, with a little more fibre and far less sodium (190 mg vs 350 mg) — the full comparison is in our white rice vs brown rice guide. Black beans and pinto beans are nearly identical at 130 calories and 8 g protein per 4 oz serving.
Fajita vegetables (peppers and onions) are almost free at 20 calories. The expensive toppings are the dairy and the guacamole: Monterey Jack cheese is 110 calories per ounce, sour cream 110 per 2 oz, queso blanco 120 per 2 oz on an entrée, and guacamole 230 per 4 oz serving — worth it, but count it.
Salsas & Sauces
Four salsas, running mild to hot: fresh tomato salsa (25 calories per 4 oz — basically free flavour), roasted chili-corn salsa (80), tomatillo-green chili salsa (15 per 2 oz) and tomatillo-red chili salsa (30 per 2 oz), the hottest of the line. The outlier is the Chipotle-honey vinaigrette at 220 calories per serving; it’s a dressing, not a salsa, and it’s what turns a salad into a meal. A newer cilantro lime sauce has also joined the dip lineup alongside the salsas.
Sides
Tortilla chips are made in-house daily and come in regular (540 calories per 4 oz bag) and large (810). From there it’s chips-and-dip maths: chips with salsa is the lightest pairing, chips and guacamole or chips and queso blanco cost more, and both dips are also sold as standalone sides in regular and large — a large side of guacamole is 460 calories, a large queso blanco 480. Honest framing: a regular chips plus a side of guac is a meal’s worth of calories before your entrée arrives.
Drinks
Fountain drinks come in 22 oz and 32 oz. The sweetened sodas run 260–300 calories at the regular size and up to 440 for a large Mountain Dew; Coke Zero and Diet Coke are zero. Chipotle’s iced tea is 10–15 calories unsweetened. The Tractor line — organic lemonade and aguas frescas in berry, watermelon limeade and mandarin — runs 170–230 calories at 22 oz, closer to juice than to soda. Bottled options (Mexican Coca-Cola and Sprite, IZZE, San Pellegrino, bottled water) sit in the cooler by the register and range from 0 to about 280 calories.
What It Costs
A chicken, sofritas or veggie entrée typically starts from $11.35 in the US, with steak and barbacoa at the top of the protein price ladder, and the preset Lifestyle Bowls running higher because of their double portions and guacamole. Extras like guacamole and queso blanco add a few dollars each. Treat any single number as a guide only — Chipotle sets prices per restaurant, and your local menu board is the final word. Our full price list page, with typical ranges for every item, is on its way this week.
Nutrition & Allergens
Every figure on this page comes from Chipotle’s official US nutrition information; the complete ingredient-by-ingredient chart — calories, fat, sodium, carbs, fibre, sugar and protein for all 27 core ingredients — is on our Chipotle nutrition facts page.
On allergens, the short version: flour tortillas are the only gluten-containing items on the standard menu (Chipotle’s own guidance is blunt — if you avoid gluten, don’t eat the flour tortillas). Milk shows up in the cheese, queso blanco and sour cream; sofritas is the only soy item; and Chipotle does not use eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish or sesame as ingredients, though it can’t guarantee zero cross-contact in the kitchen. A dedicated allergen page with the full official matrix is coming with this menu series.
FAQs
What is on the Chipotle menu?
The Chipotle menu has six entrées — burrito, burrito bowl, tacos, quesadilla, salad and a kids’ menu — plus eight preset Lifestyle Bowls. You build each entrée from six regular proteins (chicken, steak, barbacoa, carnitas, sofritas or veggie), two rices, two beans, four salsas and toppings like guacamole, queso blanco, cheese and sour cream, with chips, dips and drinks on the side.
What is the lowest-calorie entrée at Chipotle?
Burrito bowls and salads have the lowest published floor at 420 calories, because they skip the 320-calorie flour tortilla. A bowl built on chicken or steak with beans, fajita vegetables and fresh tomato salsa stays near the bottom of that range; cheese, sour cream, queso and guacamole push it up fast.
Are Chipotle Lifestyle Bowls available in store?
No. Lifestyle Bowls are digital-only, ordered through the Chipotle app or chipotle.com for pickup or delivery. The regular entrées can be ordered at the counter as usual.
Does Chipotle have vegetarian and vegan options?
Yes. Sofritas is a plant-based tofu protein, the Veggie entrée (guacamole and beans) is vegetarian, and the Plant Powered and Veggie Full Lifestyle Bowls are built vegan. Vegans should skip the cheese, queso blanco, sour cream and the chipotle-honey vinaigrette, which contains honey.
Does Chipotle have gluten-free options?
Almost everything except the flour tortillas. Chipotle’s official guidance is that flour tortillas are the only gluten-containing items on the standard menu, so bowls, salads, tacos on crispy corn tortillas and all the proteins, rices, beans and salsas are the gluten-free route — with the usual cross-contact caveat in a working kitchen.
How many calories are in a Chipotle burrito?
Chipotle’s published range for a burrito is 740–1,210 calories. The tortilla contributes 320, a protein adds 150–210, and rice, beans, cheese, sour cream and guacamole decide where in the range your burrito lands.
