Lunchtime at Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. is picking up, according to Chief Financial Officer Jack Hartung, a sign that workers are heading back to their offices, and back to their midday meal routines.

“We’re seeing Monday through Friday lunch coming back in a big way,” Hartung told MarketWatch. “As people go back to work, in-store ordering is coming back.”

Digital sales grew 10.5% and accounted for 48.5% of total sales. Even as the fast-casual chain has recovered 70% of in-store sales, Chief Executive Brian Niccol said on the earnings call that the company has held on to 80% of digital sales. “Brisket like carne asada and cauliflower rice competes in the kitchen and competes on the grill,” he said.

“Margins will remain a key focus for investors, both near-term and long-term ,” wrote RBC Capital’s Christopher Carril.The labor market is tight in the U.S. with companies increasing wages and benefits to get the workers they need. Hartung says it’s a “labor environment unlike any I’ve ever seen.”
