Following a deal with startup Postmates, it was announced that [Chipotle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chipotle-and-doordash) delivery will be a thing. In an hour or less you can get your hands on your [favorite burrito bowl](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chipotle-carne-asada-steak-burrito) without having to leave your home.

While Chipotle delivery may at first seem like a dream come true, there are some drawbacks to the new service. Postmates works in 67 markets, which means it won't be widely available to all. There is currently also a sizable delivery fee that will be added to your order. It's uncertain if an official deal will result in lower fees, but there are certainly some Chipotle customers who will be unfazed.

A statement has not been released by the chain restaurant, but investors were notified in an earnings call.
