Clive, IA – Chipotle Mexican Grill will open its first Clive location on Thursday, offering residents a new option for fast-casual dining with the added convenience of a Chipotlane — the chain’s signature drive-thru pick-up lane for digital orders.
According to Chipotle representatives, the restaurant will open its doors at 10001 University Avenue and operate daily from 10:45 a.m. to 10 p.m. Starting Thursday, guests will also be able to try the brand’s new limited-time menu item: Adobo Ranch dip.
The Clive opening is part of Chipotle’s national “Summer of Extras” campaign, which includes $1 million in giveaways to Chipotle Rewards members. The program features 10,000 free burrito drops each week, and customers can sign up through the Chipotle app or website.
The restaurant is also actively hiring, with around 30 positions available at the new location. Nationwide, Chipotle offers employees a range of benefits, including a crew bonus program that can add up to an extra month’s pay each year, a debt-free college degree initiative, ESL support, and mental health resources for workers and their families.
The company has invited Clive residents to learn more about local fundraising opportunities through Chipotle, which may benefit area schools, sports teams, and nonprofits.
This Clive location adds to Chipotle’s growing footprint across Iowa as demand increases for quick, healthy food options with easy digital access.
