Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. Refund Policy

Chipotle handles most order and billing follow-up through its official support and contact channels. If you need a refund, start by collecting the order date, amount, restaurant location, and receipt or app confirmation if available.

Use the official contact page to report duplicate charges, missing items, delivery issues, or a total that does not match what you expected. Give clear order details so support can identify the purchase quickly.

If Chipotle agrees to refund the purchase, the credit may still take several business days to appear on your bank or card statement. If the charge is completely unfamiliar and no authorized user recognizes it, contact your bank immediately and treat it as possible unauthorized use.
