Took almost 10 minutes to be acknowledged by a staff member in an attempt to order dinner. When one eventually came over to us, he continued to carry on a conversation with the manager, for several more minutes, directly in front of us. Clearly non-work-related.
When he finally felt inspired to speak to us as customers, I could barely hear him, as the obnoxiously loud, unfiltered music, blared over the speaker system.
We were the only customers in the store, and it took about 20 minutes to get our food and complete the overall transaction from start to finish. Call me crazy, but to be the only customer in the store at a place that is known to serve food very quickly, I consider that very low bar.
When it came time to pay, the manager was cold, short, and seemingly irritated that I had questions about beverage options. I had expressed to him that I have poor eyesight and I was trying to inquire about a fruit beverage I used to enjoy there years ago that chipotle apparently doesn't carry anymore. He retorted with, "All we got is apple juice.", in an irritated tone. I didn't want to sit there any longer so I just got a fountain drink and called it a day.
There was also a woman who came in who seemed to know that manager, and it appeared that some form of "arrangement" was being attempted to take place based on the subtle verbage they were exchanging. It wouldn't surprise me if it was something illegal, I've seen and heard it all. Someone in corporate should really look into that.
I don't know what's going on with Chipotle, but they really need to go back to hiring quality employees like they did in the past. The people they have staffing and running this location are doing an awful job of giving timely and quality customer service. You wouldn't expect this in Ghent of all places 💯
The only positive thing I have to say about the experience is that the associate did give us a very generous portion size, which was appreciated.
