Chipotle Mexican Grill is opening its new Roseburg location Friday.

Nine months after filing an application with the City of Roseburg, the 2,325 square foot outlet located in a new building in the Roseburg Marketplace at 2060 Northwest Stewart Parkway is ready to go.

The store will normally be open daily from 10:45 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. On  Saturday, it will close early at 8:00 p.m., due to New Year’s Eve. A company release said guests who sign up for Chipotle Rewards will receive free chips and guacamole after their first purchase: https://www.chipotle.com/rewards.

The new store features a Chipotlane, which allows customers to pick up digital orders without ever entering the restaurant. The drive through is for those orders only. Orders cannot be called in or made through a speaker at the drive through.

Chipotle is still hiring staff for the new location. On average, 25 people are hired for each store and receive what the company calls “competitive benefits” which include:

*A crew bonus with the opportunity to earn up to an extra month’s worth of pay each year

*A debt-free college degree program; and English as a second language

*Access to mental healthcare for employees and their families
