The Chipotle Mexican Grill location in Bend was open Monday and expects to stay open, employees said.

As of Monday, the Bend location, which opened its doors Oct. 2 at 222 NE Emerson Ave., next to Walgreens at NE Third Street and Franklin Avenue, had not been affected by the outbreak of E. coli that caused the chain to close 43 restaurants in Oregon and Washington. Officials from Chipotle’s corporate headquarters could not be reached for additional comment.
