There's not a lot to say really, the guys here do a great job making fresh burritos. They taste great, aren't too expensive and they have some great South American beers - what more do you need from a quick bite to eat on a Saturday.

Just off the main road, mission burrito was a pleasant surprise. For those of you that follow my reviews, I tend not to go for fast-foodie type establishments. They make the tortillas pretty fresh, pile on the ingredients and accompaniments, roll then wrap in silver foil. It was really tasty and filling .. Took 3 minutes to prepare.... Eat in... More

I have been to the Mission Burrito in Reading so I thought the Mission in Oxford would be a great place for a quick lunch. While it looks the same, I need to say that the Carnita I had lacked flavour, which is a shame as the Reading location was pretty good. On the whole they are not to bad,... More

Mission burrito sounds like a great initiative: promote replacement for sad (taste and health-wise) fast-food. And burritos are can absolutely fantastic: fresh, filling, healthy and rather cheap. Unfortunately the mission if not failed, than is far from being accomplished. The taste is very average, freshness of the ingredients is absent and i would argue about low prices (5.95 for veggie...

One of the few places in Oxford to get your Mexican-food fix. They make your burrito fresh on the spot according to your requests. The burritos are quite large, and can be easily shared by two people (they will cut it in half for you if you want). The ingredients taste fresh and are quite filling. When you're in the... More

Mission Burrito provides great, tasty fast food. The portions are generous and are great value and the food is filling and tasty. However, the taste isn't very authentic of Central or South American food. Queue moves quickly, and staff are generally friendly - however, not very flexible with the menu (e.g. I wasn't allowed to swap rice for veg in... More

I love Mission, the two premises in Oxford both seem very clean. They make Burritos, that's it, but good ones. The menu is simple, but the servers are clever enough to let you be creative with exactly what you want and it feels like an independent eatery rather than a chain.

Visited mission burrito on many occasions, always great, simplistic, value for money food, served with a smile :-)) If your feeling real hungry try the El Triple Which is 3 burritos in one, if you manage it they will give you a t-shirt and your name on a board, well worth the stomach pains lol
