Chipotle opens third Columbia location
By Katie Cole | June 18, 2013Around 12:30 p.m., with a line about 15 people long and workers constantly having to replace ingredients on the assembly line, it seemed like the official opening was going well. This Chipotle brought some pleasant surprises; the establishment is vast, with a patio right outside, and the seating area is aesthetically pleasing, with metal stools covered with light orange fabric. Chipotle also serves margaritas, made with Patron tequila for $6.50, or with Sauza tequila for $4.50. Alcoholic beverages at fast-food burrito joints seems to be a trend in Columbia, with Main Street’s Moe’s selling bottles of Corona next to the register. The chain’s famous burrito bowls were filled with flavor and zest, and employees made sure that customers got what they wanted as quickly as possible. The wait in line with 15 people lasted only about 10 minutes, and the food was worth the wait.
