Chipotle Hours: Open & Close Times, Sunday & Breakfast Hours by Location
Chipotle's own help center says most restaurants are open from 10:45 AM to 11 PM every day of the week. Our check of 110 restaurant pages in Houston, Las Vegas and Chicago, plus 45 pages in New York, found that a large group keeps that schedule, and many others close at 10 PM or 9 PM. A small number have shortened weekday hours, close on weekends, or are closed outright.
Why Chipotle Hours Vary by Restaurant
Because Chipotle Mexican Grill operates through independently managed franchises and diverse retail footprints (such as standalone drive-thrus, shopping mall units, and travel plazas), there is no single national schedule. Operating windows, breakfast cutoffs, and lobby access times differ noticeably between locations.

Chipotle Hours: What Time Do They Open and Close?
Chipotle's FAQ answers the question in one sentence: most restaurants are open from 10:45 am to 11 pm every day of the week, and for a specific restaurant you should use the locator. We tested that statement against the schedules on locations.chipotle.com.
| City | Pages read | Daily 10:45 AM – 11 PM | Daily, closing 10 PM | Other schedules |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Houston, TX | 42 | 21 | 12 | 9, including one closed on Sunday |
| Las Vegas, NV | 24 | 15 (14 of them open at 10:30 AM) | 6 (5 of them open at 10:30 AM) | 3, including one closing at midnight Fri and Sat |
| Chicago, IL | 44 | 18 (plus 5 opening at 10:00 AM) | 10 (7 of them open at 10:45 AM) | 7 with a different weekday and weekend schedule or weekday-only hours |
| New York, NY | 59 listed, 45 read | 36 | 5 | 4, including one with every day Closed |
The company statement holds for the biggest group everywhere we looked, but not for everyone. In Houston, 21 of 42 restaurants matched it exactly and 12 more closed at 10:00 PM instead. In Las Vegas the standard opening was 10:30 AM, not 10:45 AM, at 19 of 24 restaurants. A reader who plans a late dinner on the assumption of 11 PM would be wrong about half the time in Houston, where only 21 of 42 restaurants closed then.
Chipotle Opening and Closing Times by Restaurant Type
Locations on the right edge of the chart tend to be inside a business district or a mall: the Memorial City restaurant in Houston lists weekday hours of 10:30 AM to 8:00 PM, 10:30 AM to 9:00 PM on Saturday and 10:30 AM to 7:00 PM on Sunday, while one New York restaurant lists 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays and Closed on Saturday and Sunday.
Is Chipotle Open on Saturday and Sunday?
Almost always, yes, but the exceptions are real and sit in office districts. In Chicago, two restaurants listed Closed for both Saturday and Sunday, and others closed on Sunday only or ended early on weekends, such as a restaurant that closed at 5:00 PM both days. In Houston, one restaurant closed all day on Sunday and another ran 10:45 AM to 6:00 PM on Sunday against 8:00 PM on other days.
- Houston: of 42 restaurants, one was closed on Sunday, three ended earlier on Sunday, and 33 used a single schedule for all seven days.
- Chicago: 7 of the 44 restaurants had a weekday-only or changing weekend schedule.
- New York: one page listed every day as Closed, so a Closed label deserves a second look at the locator.
What Time Does Chipotle Close?
The most common closing time we found was 11:00 PM, followed by 10:00 PM and then 9:00 PM. At two restaurants the weekend was different: a Las Vegas restaurant closed at 11:00 PM Monday to Thursday and at midnight on Friday and Saturday, and a Houston one on FM 1960 closed at 11:00 PM on weekdays but 10:00 PM on weekends. Chipotle restaurants we read never listed a 24-hour schedule.
| Closing time | Where we saw it |
|---|---|
| 12:00 AM | A Las Vegas restaurant on Friday and Saturday |
| 11:00 PM | The standard schedule at roughly half of restaurants in all four cities |
| 10:00 PM | A second large group, including 12 in Houston and 10 in Chicago |
| 9:00 PM | Memorial City on Saturday and some Chicago and Las Vegas restaurants |
| 8:00 PM or earlier | Office-district and mall restaurants, weekday or weekend only |
Is Chipotle Open Now? Finding a Chipotle Near You
Chipotle's locator at locations.chipotle.com is organized by state and city, and each restaurant page shows hours, pickup options and delivery status. The Houston directory lists 42 Chipotle restaurants, Chicago lists 44 and New York lists 59. If you are driving to a restaurant, check the page for that exact address, since neighbors on the same street can close an hour apart.
- Search by city first and then compare two or three nearby addresses, as the closing time can differ by an hour.
- Look for restaurants that list Monday-Sunday as one line, which signals a single daily schedule.
- Remember that In-Store Pickup is described on the page as available during store hours, so digital orders end when the restaurant closes.
Does Chipotle Serve Breakfast? The Earliest Opening Times
No restaurant we read opened before 10:00 AM. The earliest were five Chicago restaurants at 10:00 AM, a Las Vegas group at 10:30 AM and the standard 10:45 AM start used in Houston, Chicago and New York. Chipotle therefore works as a lunch and dinner restaurant, and it does not appear to have a breakfast daypart on its restaurant pages. If a search for chipotle breakfast hours brought you here, the useful number is the opening time on your restaurant page, usually 10:45 AM.
- 10:00 AM: five Chicago restaurants, such as 5330 S Pulaski Rd and 3227 W Addison St.
- 10:30 AM: most Las Vegas restaurants, including 6580 S Decatur Blvd and 365 Hughes Center Dr.
- 10:45 AM: the standard in Houston, Chicago and New York, including 1166 N State St and 200 Varick St.
- 11:30 AM: the latest we found, on Mondays only, at one Houston restaurant.
Chipotle Pickup and Delivery Hours
Each restaurant page under Pickup Options lists In-Store Pickup, with the note Available during store hours, and then a line for Delivery. The practical effect is that a digital order cannot be collected after the restaurant closes, and the restaurant's listed closing time is the deadline you should plan around. We did not find a published cutoff for delivery that differs from the restaurant hours, so confirm in the app when ordering close to closing.
| Service | What the restaurant page says |
|---|---|
| In-store pickup | Available during store hours |
| Delivery | Listed as Available on the restaurant page |
| Opening time for orders | The same as the restaurant's opening time |
| Closing time for orders | The restaurant's listed closing time |
Chipotle Hours Compared With Other Chains
Chipotle is more uniform than most chains in our set. A burger chain such as Wendy's ranged from a 4:30 AM opening to a 10:00 AM opening across eleven restaurants, while Chipotle restaurants nearly all opened between 10:00 and 10:45 AM. Closing times are where Chipotle differs: roughly half of the restaurants we read closed at 11:00 PM, a quarter at 10:00 PM and a minority earlier.
Chipotle Holiday Hours: Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter
We could not find a published Chipotle holiday schedule in the company's help center or on restaurant pages, so this page does not list closing days. A press release from Chipotle's investor site shows the chain running a Thanksgiving Eve promotion on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, from 4 p.m. to close, which tells you restaurants were open that evening but says nothing about Thanksgiving Day itself.
| Holiday | 2026 date | What we can say |
|---|---|---|
| Thanksgiving Eve | Wednesday, November 25 | Open in 2025 per a company release; confirm for 2026 |
| Thanksgiving | Thursday, November 26 | No official schedule found |
| Christmas Eve | Thursday, December 24 | No official schedule found |
| Christmas Day | Friday, December 25 | No official schedule found |
| New Year's Day | Friday, January 1, 2027 | No official schedule found |
