Chipotle API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Chipotle Restaurant Meals API to extract supported public Chipotle data as structured JSON. This page includes request parameters, cURL examples, response schema, error behavior, credit cost, and a Playground link for testing before integration.
/chipotle/restaurant/mealsReturns the preset meals one Chipotle restaurant sells -- group Build-Your-Own packs, the High Protein line and limited-time Influencer meals -- each with its dine-in and delivery price at that restaurant, calorie label, dietary and macro tags, the components that make it up, merchandising tags and images. Prices are genuinely restaurant-specific: the same Build-Your-Own Chicken pack is priced differently from one location to another, so this is the endpoint to use for real pricing rather than /chipotle/meals, which lists the national meal definitions with no prices at all. Calorie labels are a range for build-your-own meals and a single figure for fixed ones, so they are returned as strings. Restaurant numbers come from GET /chipotle/restaurants. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.
Request parameters are generated from the active endpoint catalog. Required values must be sent before Crawlora can call the upstream public web data source.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| restaurant_number | string | Yes | Chipotle's numeric restaurant id, from /chipotle/restaurants | ||
| meal_type | string | No | Filter to one meal family. One of BuildYourOwn, HighProtein, Influencer. Allowed values: BuildYourOwn, HighProtein, Influencer | ||

curl -X GET "https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/chipotle/restaurant/meals?meal_type=BuildYourOwn" \ -H "x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY"
Send your scraping API key in the x-api-key header. Use the console API Keys page to rotate or select the active key.
Endpoint usage is metered in credits. The plan prices, included credits, limits, and overage rates below match the active backend billing configuration.
| Plan | Price | Included credits | Daily cap | Rate limit | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 2,000 | 500 daily credits | 5/min | No overage |

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.
| Status | Common failure case |
|---|---|
| 400 | Invalid input or missing required parameter |
| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |
| 500 | Internal execution error |
| 502 | Upstream platform failed, returned unusable HTML, or served a challenge page that could not be resolved |
When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
