Brand overview
Barrio Burrito Bar is a fast-casual Tex-Mex franchise serving fresh, customizable Mexican cuisine. Founded in 2005 in downtown Toronto as barBURRITO, the brand launched its Canadian franchise program in 2009 and expanded into the United States in 2020 under the name BURRITOBAR. In 2024, the concept evolved into Barrio Burrito Bar with an elevated visual identity, and by 2025 it awarded master franchises for the UAE and India. The menu features burritos, burrito bowls, tacos, quesadillas, and catering packs, all built around a choice of proteins, fresh toppings, and signature sauces.
