Pancheros Mexican Grill isn’t new to South Jersey, but now Glassboro can welcome its very own chain. It’s only five minutes off campus on North Delsea Drive and super affordable, too. They serve burritos, burrito bowls, tacos, quesadillas and salads. Pancheros’ meat options are grilled steak, slow-roasted pork, marinated chicken, and marinated veggies (for my vegetarian friends). If you’re like me and have been looking for a Chipotle alternative after their E. coli outbreak, your prayers have been answered. *praise hands emoji*
Here are some important takeaways:
1. Fresh Tortillas

Have you seen a tortilla pressed right in front of your very eyes? It’s incredible.
2. Mixin’ Fixin’s

The lovely workers at Pancheros mix the filling of the burrito right before they wrap them. Say goodbye to the days of biting into a huge glob of sour cream.
3. Blue Chips

These are little triangles of crispy goodness. Of course, you have the option of getting them with queso, guacamole, or salsa.
4. Extreme Soda

This may be a small bonus, but the Glassboro location of Pancheros has Pibb Xtra. It’s like the fun cousin of Dr. Pepper.
If this didn’t pique your interest, Pancheros is offering $1 burritos on March 29th from 4-6pm. Let me repeat: one dollar burritos. It’ll be the best dollar you’ve ever spent.
