Best Breakfast Burrito?

Any suggestions?

From a national chain not some restaurant down the street in Pella where most of us will never go
 
I think the best breakfast burritos I've had were from Illegal Pete's, which is a small chain around Denver. They were worth driving out of your way in the mornings to pick up.

I tried one from Wendy’s a few weeks ago. Tried one bite and moved on.

I love burritos and I love breakfast food, but it seems a hard thing to perfect. Most all at not good. I do have a favorite local place that makes a perfect version. I won’t share here, due to the OP rules.

Best breakfast burrito is two breakfast tacos.
You don't need the beans, rice, lettuce, or whatever other filler they use. Tortilla, egg, cheese, meat, hot sauce, done.
 
Never had one from Sonic. McDonalds, Wendy's, and Hardee's burritos are all trash. Burger King and Arby's are decent.

The sonic breakfast burrito tastes like ass. I ate half and tossed it along I 80
 
In Iowa City/Coralville Estella's Fresh Mex serves breakfast burrito's all day and are the best I've had in the state. That said, the Cali burrito's in San Diego in PB are better, but in Iowa City area these are pretty damn good.

One of these, Carb Balance tortilla, sour cream and jalapenos. Quick, easy and actually not too bad.

Make your own with scrambled egg, graziano sausage, handful of your cheese preference, load up in a tortilla of your choice/size and you are good to go.

I’ve found Estella’s to be very inconsistent. Say what you will about Pancheros, but you at least know what you are getting each time. That said, neither compare to La Regia.

Love La Regia... but do they do breakfast burritos? If so I never noticed. And Panchero's just isn't that good anymore and hasn't for years.

Not a national chain, but if in the Des Moines area, Jethros has a good one. I wish Pancheros would open at 9am and start doing breakfast burritos.
Sooooooooo much this....If panceros would open up breakfast and have french fries so they could make a california burrito I might never leave the place.

Every burrito can be a breakfast burrito :)

Actually, in breaking the OPs rules, my favorite in town are the breakfast burritos from Billy’s. Hopefully, they open again soon.
 
If you are traveling through Houston Hobby airport, the breakfast burrito at Pappasitos is very good

If you're ever inside the loop (I assume you live in the suburbs) the best tacos in Houston regular and breakfast are at Tierra Caliente. Been eating there since 2002 and it's consistent and out of this world. Caution: The red sauce will light your ass on fire and the green is still hot but not nearly as hot as the red.

The only thing I would eat from McDonald's was the breakfast burrito but they changed the salsa and now, like everything else from Mcd's, they are shit.


If you are ever in the shithole known as Lincoln Nebraska get the breakfast burrito from Deleon's. It is solid.
 
Burger King's is pretty tasty actually.
I hardly ever eat BK or breakfast burritos, but before the DSM skywalk BK closed, I admit I made more than one walk of shame to my office with a bag of a couple breakfast burritos in hand. I liked them because they weren't too big, and had a little bit of everything in them, including the hash brown rounds.
