Google Maps burrito trends to guac your world
April 7 is National Burrito Day in the U.S. So get ready to roll over to your favorite burrito joint and treat yourself to the extra guac. Whether you like your burrito in a bowl or rolled, take a bite out of these Google Maps trends we’ve served up for you — from the most popular national and local burrito places to which state has the most burritos and much more.
For the love of the burrito
Nationally, we found that the most popular burrito chains in the U.S. are Chipotle, Qdoba and Moe’s. Lettuce take a look at which of these is the top-searched burrito chain in each state on Google Maps!
- Chipotle is the most popular burrito chain, ranking first among the three most popular national chains in 30 states and Washington D.C.
- Qdoba is the second most popular burrito chain, ranking first among the three most popular burrito chains in 13 states.
- Moe’s is the third most popular burrito chain, ranking first among the three most popular burrito chains in 7 states.
A burrito state of mind
We guess it's true what they say, everything’s bigger in Texas – including the number of burrito restaurants per capita! For every 10,000 residents, Texas has 4.5 burrito restaurants (or restaurants that serve burritos.) Want to know the other states that are truly burrito-ful? New Mexico comes in as a close second place for most burrito restaurants per capita, and California in third.
But having the most burrito restaurants doesn’t guarantee you the title of Google Maps’ most burrito-loving state. In fact, it's Coloradans that turn to Google Maps to search for burritos the most, with Oregon, New Mexico, Illinois and California rounding out the top five states.
Each state has its own burrito flair. If you’ve been craving something a little more authentic, we’re serving up some of the top-rated Mexican and Burrito Restaurants that identify as Latino-owned on Google Maps:
