Award-winning Tex-Mex restaurant brand Plan Burrito is proud to announce the opening of its newest restaurant in Crawley, working with our new franchise partners, Kishan, Kinner and Dhiren. This marks another exciting step in the company's continued expansion across the UK.
Located at 24 The Boulevard, Crawley RH10 1XP, the new restaurant brings Plan Burrito's popular mexican food menu of freshly prepared burritos, tacos, quesadillas, loaded nachos and burrito bowls to Crawley for the very first time.
