NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., September 21, 2026 — Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) today announced it is celebrating National Quesadilla Day with two days of free quesadillas.

Chipotle quesadillas are digitally exclusive and feature melted Monterey Jack cheese, a choice of protein, optional fajita veggies and three sides for dipping. Monterey Jack cheese is grated fresh in every Chipotle restaurant for the perfect melty cheese pull.

Guests can choose three sides with their Pollo Asado quesadilla and add Chipotle’s limited-time Cilantro Lime Sauce as a premium dipping option.

How It Works

  • From Thursday, September 24 through Friday, September 25, guests in the U.S. and Canada can receive a free Chipotle quesadilla with a digital purchase of $20 or more.1
  • To redeem the National Quesadilla Day 2026 offer, guests must add a quesadilla to their cart along with $20 or more of additional menu items, then apply code NQD2026 at checkout on the Chipotle app, Chipotle.com or Chipotle.ca.

A New Way to Enjoy Pollo Asado
Pollo Asado returned to Chipotle restaurants in August with an all-new recipe featuring freshly grilled adobo chicken seasoned with garlic, Mexican spices and hand-cut cilantro, then finished with bright citrus and real lime for a savory, smoky flavor.

“Our quesadillas have earned a passionate following, so we’re going big for National Quesadilla Day with two days of free quesadillas,” said Stephanie Perdue, Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing at Chipotle. “And with our new Pollo Asado recipe on the menu, fans have even more reason to customize, dip and discover a new favorite combination.”
