Burrito experience No. Two and I still have yet to try Chipotle! - Don't think I'm doing a good job at being a good food blogger haha
I have to admit, I don't think I can get used to the fast paced ordering style at burrito joints... too many choices, with so little time! Nevertheless, here's a review for Mission Burrito's Veggie Burrito
I chose to have a brown (wholemeat) tortilla instead of white (flour) - I'm in this health kick at the moment - with veggie filling. The veggie filling consisted of; rice, black beans and sauteed mixed peppers with red onions.
I also added in guacamole (70p extra), tomato and herb mix, shredded lettuce and their salsa verde.
The burrito size justified the cost. It was very filling and I already felt quite content about half way through eating and as usual, it was messy to eat. By the time I got to the bottom half, the burrito was quite cool, so I assume you're meant to chump down on your burrito fast if you want to eat it at a somewhat warm-lukewarm temperature.
Mission Burrito do also provide tap water, cutlery and - from what I saw was available - three hot sauces: 'original', 'chili garlic' and 'chipotle' (the chipotle sauce was definitely my favourite!)
Quick note on the interior, it's really small! I'd say this branch is frequent for take-aways because I'm not too sure where surges of dine-in customers would sit (unless there's more seating downstairs).
There's a really informal ambiance to the restaurant, with its colourful posters and bright wooden seating areas, which is quite reminiscent of Tortilla's furniture.
Price: £5.45
Price Range: £
It's not as modern and hip as Tortilla but Mission Burrito provides a simple, no-added-frills burrito experience
Rating: 3/5
