Restaurant chain also scouting locales in Paris and Munich

Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. has secured its first London location and is finalizing design and building plans. The restaurant, at 114-116 Charing Cross Road, will be the burrito chain's first location in Europe and is slated to open in April of 2010.
While the majority of Chipotle's growth through 2010 will be in the United States, the company said it is also looking for additional sites in London, as well as in Paris and Munich. However, Chipotle said it has not yet identified specific sites or released timelines for expansion into those markets.
“In many ways, the food culture in Europe matches our priorities much more closely than in the U.S.,” said Steve Ells, founder and co-ceo of the 900-unit chain. “I think we'll be able to source beautiful ingredients from local and sustainable sources from the time we open in the UK, and establish sustainable supply chains elsewhere as we look at other European markets.”
