How much is a Chipotle bowl?
A Chipotle bowl costs about $9.20 to $11.65 before tax, depending on the protein, at the stores we checked in October 2026. Chicken, sofritas and veggie are the cheapest, and steak and barbacoa cost about $2 more.
The price covers the protein plus everything on the line except a few extras: rice, beans, fajita veggies, any of the four salsas, sour cream, cheese and lettuce. Guacamole adds $2.95 and queso blanco about $1.70, except on a veggie bowl, which includes guacamole. Bowls and burritos with the same protein always cost the same; see the Chipotle burrito page for that side of the menu.

How much is a chicken bowl at Chipotle?
A chicken bowl costs about $9.20 to $9.50, which makes it one of the cheapest full entrees at Chipotle and the default order for many regulars. Here is what common upgrades do to the price:
- Add guacamole: about $12.15 to $12.45.
- Add queso blanco: about $10.90 to $11.20.
- Add chips and guacamole on the side: about $14.10 to $14.60.
- Double the chicken: Chipotle does not publish a national price for extra protein; our price sheet estimates about $4.50, and the app shows the exact charge.
The sample chicken bowl with white rice, black beans, tomato salsa, cheese and romaine has about 660 calories and 32 grams of protein from the chicken alone.
What is the difference between a burrito bowl and a salad bowl at Chipotle?
A burrito bowl starts with rice and beans, and a salad bowl starts with a bed of greens. Both cost the same with the same protein, and you can add any of the same toppings.
The salad comes with chipotle-honey vinaigrette on the side, which is 220 calories for the full 2-ounce cup, so use part of it if you are counting. Chipotle also offers a supergreens lettuce mix, used in its High Protein-Low Calorie Salad. A salad with chicken, fajita veggies, tomato salsa and cheese but no dressing comes to about 340 calories, about half of the sample burrito bowl.
How do you get more out of a Chipotle bowl?
A few habits stretch a Chipotle bowl without breaking any rules.
- Order online and set your portions. The app and website let you pick light, normal or extra for most toppings before you pay, so you see any charge up front.
- Get a tortilla on the side. For about $0.50 you can turn half the bowl into a burrito and save the rest.
- Compare extra chicken with a High Protein Cup. A 4-ounce cup of chicken costs about $3.80 to $4.15. If your store charges more than that for double chicken, buying the cup and adding it yourself gets you a full 4-ounce portion, with 32 grams of protein, for less.
- Spend points on double protein. Chipotle Rewards members can redeem 700 points for double protein.
