Chipotle Mexican Grill in Hoboken hopes to open by Halloween

Spoke with the management at Chipotle Mexican Grill at 229 Washington Street yesterday – and they were excited to announce that the expected opening date will be October 31st – Halloween!

Things were moving along nicely, they reported – and that no major issues in the spot that was formerly home to Bayonne Community Bank.

Additionally, they said that prep time is quite efficient – that you can go from placing your order to prep to plate in a minute or less. That would be a huge improvement over many other establishments in Hoboken.

Chipotle Mexican Grill getting closer to opening in Hoboken

9/8/2012 Update:

Chipotle Mexican Grill which will open soon at 229 Washington Street had an exciting milestone in their construction progress: A retail sign delivery!

One Hoboken411 reader sent these pics in – and reminded those who shy away from chains (like us), that “the food is fresh and in some cases even organic!”

We will certainly give them a shot!

Chipotle Mexican Grill – 229 Washington St. – Hoboken, NJ

8/15/2012:

Chipotle Mexican Grill has been on the list of what Hoboken residents felt they wanted in this town for a very long time.

Well – they’re coming to the former Bayonne Community Bank spot at 229 Washington Street.

Perfect spot, too – because now they can share the drunk weekend fights with McDonald’s which is right across the street.

(Thanks, Lauren for the tip!)
