Chipotle Mexican Grill recently remodeled a store near the fast-casual chain’s Newport Beach headquarters, a major top-to-bottom overhaul that features pick-up shelves at the front entrance, a mix of barstools and community tables and a lower glass partition along the dine-in queue. Does this store represent the look of Chipotle’s next generation of stores? It’s unclear. When asked, the chain did not provide details about the makeover. The location often serves as a temporary test kitchen for the chain, which is currently building a training and food lab called Chipotle Cultivate Center a few miles from its offices. – Source: NRN
