Chicken Kid’s Build Your Own

What Chipotle says it is

Chipotle’s printed nutrition sheet describes a kid’s build your own meal as: “Your choice of meat, guacamole, or queso, and two toppings to go with a pair of crispy corn or soft flour tortillas. Includes fruit or kid’s chips, and organic juice or milk.”

On the protein, Chipotle’s ingredients page says of chicken: “To prep our grilled chicken, we marinate it overnight in our smoky, spicy chipotle pepper adobo, and then grill it until it’s perfectly charred with a subtle caramelized flavor. And when it comes to chicken, we don’t bawk around. We currently source only Responsibly Raised birds, which in the U.S. means they’re fed a 100% vegetarian diet with no antibiotics, but we’re always striving to raise our standards even higher.” The statement for the chicken names ten ingredients: Black Pepper, Chipotle Chili, Chicken, Cumin, Garlic, Oregano, Salt, High Oleic Sunflower Oil, Distilled Vinegar and Water.

The Chicken Kid’s Build Your Own was listed at all 368 restaurants read, in 48 states and DC on 25 September 2026. That makes it a core item, on every open menu read. One of those menus marked it unavailable on the read day.

Why the listing and the build differ

90 calories is the listing for the Chicken Kid’s Build Your Own, and it is the protein alone: 2 oz of chicken, with nothing else counted. This site prints that figure as the listing and never as the meal.

Sum the classic build part by part and the Chicken Kid’s Build Your Own is 600 calories: Chicken (kid’s portion, 2 oz) (90 calories), Soft Flour Tortilla (taco) (a pair, kid’s meal, 2 oz) (170 calories), Cilantro-Lime White Rice (kid’s portion, from the printed sheet) (100 calories), Black Beans (kid’s portion, from the printed sheet) (100 calories) and Tortilla Chips (kid’s chips, 1 oz) (140 calories). The other reference builds: light at 250 calories and loaded at 770 calories. Chipotle’s printed sheet gives a built kid’s build your own meal as 350 to 810 calories; the classic build sits inside that range.

Protein runs 30 g across the classic build, 5 g per 100 calories, and sodium 895 mg, 39 percent of the 2,300 mg the FDA uses as the daily value. Press any part in the build above and the bars redraw from that part’s own record.

What the price buys

Between $5.10 and $5.95 for pickup depending on the restaurant; $5.70 is the median across 368 menus, read on 25 September 2026. The same menus carry Chipotle’s own delivery price: $7.40 at the median, 29.8 percent above pickup, before the service fees the checkout adds. Every one of the eight kid’s build your own meals on the board shares the $5.70 median: the protein does not move the price on this format.

By state median, Kansas was lowest at $5.55 and Washington highest at $5.95. A state median stands on eight restaurants at most, so one dear or cheap restaurant moves it; the national range is the safer figure. Pick a state at the top of the page and every price on this site prints that state’s median.

The figures against a day

Against a 2,000 calorie day, the listed 2 oz of chicken is 4 percent of the calories and 7 percent of the sodium daily value. It carries 15 g of protein, 16.7 g per 100 calories, and 1.5 g of saturated fat (8 percent of the daily value).

The classic build is 30 percent of a 2,000 calorie day and 39 percent of the sodium daily value. Carbohydrate runs 81 g with 8 g of fiber (29 percent of the 28 g daily value); fat 17 g, of which 3 g saturated.

Allergens and diets on this order

Chipotle’s allergens and special diets chart has a row for Chicken: it contains none of the four chart allergens (dairy, soy, wheat and gluten, sulphites); the row marks it keto and paleo. The classic build on this page contains wheat and gluten and sulphites, by the rows for its parts; it is not vegetarian (Chicken (kid’s portion, 2 oz) rules it out).

Every row on the chart carries the same two cautions: “Individual foods may come into contact with one another during preparation, which is not reflected on this chart.” “Although we do not use eggs, mustard, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, shellfish, or fish as ingredients in our food, Chipotle cannot guarantee the complete absence of these allergens in its restaurants.”
