Kelowna’s first Chipotle Mexican Grill is set to open at the end of September.

​

The restaurant chain is expanding to the Interior of B.C. for the first time with its new restaurant at 150-1950 Harvey Ave., officially opening its doors to customers on Wednesday, Sept. 30.

​

“Opening in Kelowna, the cultural hub of the Okanagan Valley, brings Chipotle closer to residents, students and visitors across the region,” said managing director Anat Davidzon.

​

“Our first restaurant in the Interior will introduce guests to what sets Chipotle apart: fresh, customizable meals made with real ingredients, prepared every day without artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.”

​

According to Chipotle, the first 100 guests who purchase an entree will receive a complimentary Chipotle-branded speaker.

​

Kelowna’s newest restaurant will be Chipotle’s 24th location in B.C. and is expected to create approximately 30 local jobs.

​

While staffing the new restaurant, Chipotle says it offers competitive benefits for employees, including tuition reimbursement, retirement savings matching, access to mental health care for employees and a $200 referral bonus for employees who refer a crew member and a $750 referral bonus for the referral of an apprentice or general manager.

​

This location will be open daily from 10:45 a.m. to 10 p.m.
