Chipotle Rapidly Expanding In Connecticut, Including Mansfield

MANSFIELD, CT — The Chipotle restaurant chain is scheduled to open five new locations in Connecticut by the end of the year and one is in Mansfield.

And more could come.

A company spokeswoman told Patch that all five will feature the brand’s new “Chipotlane,” a drive-through pick-up lane that allows customers to pick up digital orders without leaving their vehicles.

Chipotle specializes in bowls, tacos and burritos made to order in front of the customer.

The five new Connecticut locations to open in 2024 are:

• 124 Boston Post Road, Waterford
• 14 Danbury Road, Wilton
• 106 Storrs Rd, Mansfield
• 11 Cedar Ave, South Windsor
• 1 Sugar Hollow Road, Danbury

A rendering of a new Chipotle has emerged in a listing for a proposed new commercial building at 253-273 Talcottville Road in Vernon on the New England Retail Properties site. That’s state Route 83.

Vernon Director of Development Services Shaun Gately said the property owner is marketing potential tenants, but potential tenants are not mentioned in any site plan on file. He called any Chipotle in Vernon “extremely preliminary” and said a new one would need fresh regulatory approval.
