St. Petersburg, April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Barberitos, known for its better-for-you, Mexican-inspired dishes, is kicking off two spring promotions tied to National Burrito Day and Cinco de Mayo, offering guests free queso with purchase, a chance to win free Barberitos for a year, and more.
To celebrate National Burrito Day on April 2nd, Barberitos is launching a month-long, fan-driven campaign inviting guests to build and name their dream burrito and share it on social media for a chance to win free burritos for a year. The winning creation will also be featured on next year’s menu as the official National Burrito Day burrito, giving fans a lasting role in shaping the brand’s offerings.
“This is the first time we’re putting menu development directly in our guests’ hands,” said Julianna Silva, Director of Marketing at Barberitos. “We see endless creativity in how people customize their orders every day, and this campaign gives us a way to turn that into something permanent.”
Building on the excitement, Barberitos will bring back its Cinco de Queso celebration. The promotion will feature free queso with any purchase on May 5th, along with loyalty rewards, influencer activations, and a month-long social media countdown leading up to Cinco de Mayo. Guests who participate in Cinco de Queso will also be entered for a chance to win free Barberitos for a year.
“Cinco de Queso has become a standout moment for our brand, and this year we’re making it even more rewarding for guests,” Silva added. “From free queso to the opportunity to win a year of Barberitos, we’re focused on creating experiences that keep people coming back.”
Together, the promotions highlight Barberitos’ focus on guest engagement and brand interaction, turning everyday orders into opportunities for creativity and reward.
