Whether you like to fill them with meat or prefer them strictly vegetarian, think of them as the ultimate breakfast food or prefer them as a late-night snack, burritos are a versatile dish that deserves to be celebrated in a major way.
On Thursday, April 4, the world will pay homage to the beloved Mexican wrap on National Burrito Day, and many restaurants are cooking up deals, discounts and freebies for the occasion. Here are a few we plan to chow down on.
Baja Fresh
When loyalty members buy one burrito at participating Baja Fresh between April 1 — 4, they’ll get another for free using the code BURRITO2024. If you’re not a current loyalty member, you can sign up to receive the offer.
