Chipotle eyes another JoCo location, this one in Olathe

A popular Tex-Mex chain plans to expand its Johnson County presence.

California-based Chipotle, known for its burritos and bowls, has filed plans to open a new location in Olathe.

Chipotle will be at 14833 W. 151st St.

  • The restaurant will occupy a space on the northeast corner of 151st Street and Black Bob Road.
  • There, the new space will neighbor other restaurants like The Bar, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, and McDonald’s.
  • Officials with the company told the Post this week that the restaurant will open this fall, but did not have a specific opening date on hand yet.
  • The new Olathe location will also feature a “Chipotlane” drive-thru pickup window.
