Chipotle Reveals its First Digital Kitchen and Drive-Thru

Chipotle Digital Kitchen

Chipotle Mexican Grill just announced plans for a Chipotlane Digital Kitchen, its first digital prototype restaurant with a drive-thru, pickup window, and outdoor patio dining area.

The Chipotlane Digital Kitchen is scheduled to open later this month in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio and sets a focus on digital orders via the Chipotle app, chipotle.com, and third-party delivery services.

The new Chipotlane Digital Kitchen is smaller than a traditional drive-thru unit and takes the dining room and front production line out of the restaurant’s equation.
