Chipotle will open its latest restaurant in Albany County, located in Glenmont at 9 Moriah Road, according to a company job posting.

The new location will officially open on Saturday, Dec. 31, with the first five people in line receiving free Chipotle merchandise, WTEN reports.

The Southern California-based restaurant chain also serves up a wide array of chicken, beef, and pork bowls, along with carnitas tacos, salads, quesadillas, and chips and guacamole.

Chipotle has more than 2,000 locations worldwide, including 56 in New York.
