Plan Burrito

About Plan Burrito

Plan Burrito opened its first store in Loughborough in May 2015. A second restaurant quickly followed due to the high demand for its tasty burritos and friendly service. Plan Burrito has spent considerable time preparing the brand for the franchise market.

The business caters to a wide range of consumers. There is a growing demand for Mexican food and burritos, in particular, in the UK. Plan Burrito caters for all religious beliefs and it prides itself on having a menu that can cater to any allergen or intolerances.

Plan Burrito offers an authentic burrito product with 95 per cent of its ingredients imported from Mexico. It offers competitive prices, resulting in great value-for-money fast food. Its customer service is nothing less than 5-Stars as can be seen on all review platforms.
