What Comes With a Chipotle Kids Meal?

1. Kid’s Build Your Own

Kids get two small tortillas (soft flour or crispy corn) plus a small portion of protein, rice, beans and one topping, served separately so they can build their own tacos. It’s the best option for curious eaters and kids who like to “make it themselves.”

2. Kid’s Quesadilla

A small flour tortilla with melted Monterey Jack cheese, pressed until golden. Add chicken or steak for a little extra. It’s the go-to choice for picky eaters.

Side Options

  • Kid’s chips: a small bag of Chipotle’s tortilla chips with lime and salt
  • Fruit: usually a clementine or seasonal fruit cup

Drink Options

  • Organic apple juice or another organic juice (varies by location)
  • Organic milk (white or chocolate where available)

Chipotle Kids Menu Nutrition (Approximate)

Allergen Tips for Kids

  • Gluten-free kids meal: order the Kid’s Build Your Own with crispy corn tortillas. The quesadilla and soft tortillas contain wheat.
  • Dairy-free: skip the cheese and choose juice instead of milk. Every protein, rice, bean and salsa is dairy-free.
  • Soy-free: avoid sofritas.
  • Nut-free: Chipotle’s standard menu doesn’t contain peanuts or tree nuts.

Always tell the crew about allergies so they can change gloves. See the full Chipotle allergen menu.

Tips for Ordering With Kids

  1. Order in the app ahead of time so you skip the line with hungry kids.
  2. Ask for toppings on the side for picky eaters who don’t like foods touching.
  3. Go mild. Stick to the fresh tomato salsa, or no salsa. The tomatillo-red salsa is very spicy.
  4. Share a large chips & guac across the family instead of separate sides.
  5. Try a kids quesadilla with chicken for extra protein for active kids.
  6. Add an adult-sized side of beans or rice (often free or inexpensive) if your child is extra hungry.
