In light of recent posts, controversy, and direct questioning, I will attempt to articulate my preferences in a comparison between Chipotle and Freebirds. For the sake of brevity, I will only compare burritos, since that is all I've had at either location. In fact, I will keep the whole comparison within the scope of my personal experience. I will also not link to their respective websites every time I mention them. Feel free to correct or refute anything I say.
What I usually get at both establishments is a chicken burrito. In the case of Freebirds, I get a large cayenne tortilla. I get rice, cheese, lettuce, and some kind of spicy salsa/sauce. To most people, this is pretty plain.
On to the comparison, which I will categorize in whatever way comes out as I write it:
So let's tally it up. Seems Freebirds is up 3 on Chipotle. The primary reasons I've visited Chipotle more is the convenient location, and Dave really likes it.
Chipotle seems to be one of those marketing genius companies who have some really good advertising and slick packaging, like Apple I guess. Just check out their website! I can't remember EVER seeing a Freebirds advertisement. Most of my friends at work don't even know what Freebirds is.
So, Webdell, I guess the answer is I like Freebirds more.
