Plan Burrito Loughborough — Restaurant in Charnwood

Overall very tasty, but pricey

Its worth mentioning I ordered this through a delivery service, so some things may be different about your experience. I ordered an og burritto meal with beef, and decided to drop the extra £5 for a "really big burrito".

When it arrived, first thing I noticed was that the burrito, as stated, was really big. It was almost as big as the plate I was eating it off, and about twice the size of your average burrito or wrap.

There was a respectable portion of beef, and all the fillings tasted high quality and fresh. the hot salsa wasn't particularly spicy by my taste, but was still very tasty with just a hint of spice. The meal also came with a drink and nachos. I chose the mango drink, but received a pineapple with a little note saying "sorry, out of mango

Omg BESTIE, listen. You have to go to Plan Burrito in Loughborough. Like. I am not even joking. I just inhaled the most INSANE burrito of my entire existence. I swear, it was like a hug from a tortilla-wrapped angel.

First of all, the SIZE?? This thing was basically a baby whale. I was like, “Oh yeah, I’ll eat half and save the rest” – LIES. I devoured the whole thing like some kind of majestic beast. And the fillings??? The pulled pork was so juicy, I nearly wept. Like, it melted in my mouth. The guac? Perfection. Creamy, fresh, and definitely not that stingy, sad spoonful you get at some places. AND THE SAUCE. Holy mother of spice. It slapped. But like, in a consensual, life-affirming way.

Also, the nachos. Bestie. Crispy, cheesy, with the perfect salsa-to-chip ratio. I may or may not have ordered a second portion “for the table” (there was no table, just me).

AND the staff??? Actual angels. They were so nice, I was like, “Are we best friends now??” I might’ve told them I loved them. No regrets.

I’m telling you – next time you’re in Loughborough, if you don’t go to Plan Burrito, I will disown you. Like, fully. You deserve this burrito...

This is in my top 3 for worst "Mexican" food experiences ever. Food flavors are overpowering and not well paired together, basically it tastes nothing like Mexican. Chicken tastes more like indian spice than Mexican. I'm pretty sure my chihuahua makes better Mexican food.

Moreover hygiene isn't really a priority, a fly was hanging out in the cheese tub that got put on my burrito and when the staff noticed it, they didn't remake my burrito, just commented that the flies were back. Also the staff member put on gloves, then rang me up on till, handled my card and their card machine, then proceeded to make my burrito without changing gloves. I will say the guy was nice, however, I would rather pay for a colonoscopy then visit again.

Edit: Your security camera must be amazing to see if the fly touched the cheese that went in my burrito. It did. Also, if staff is only to change gloves for cash purchases as it harbours bacteria but are then touching the cash register and buttons with the dirty hands that handles cash, then the cash register itself is contaminated. Simple logic there. So no, your excuse for poor hygiene is...
