🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Burger with gluten-free bun
  • Burger wrapped in lettuce (lettuce wrap)
  • Any burger can be ordered with a lettuce wrap
  • Lettuce-wrapped burgers or gluten-free buns appear to be the primary celiac-safe formats supported by the menu and ordering guidance

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Fries are commonly identified as not gluten-free due to shared fry oil and equipment.
  • Some components (like Shack Sauce) may contain gluten, so explicit gluten-free ordering notes are important.
  • While many staff are described as knowledgeable and taking allergy precautions (glove changes, area cleansing, labeling), cross-contact risks persist because the facility is not gluten-free dedicated.
  • The evidence includes both explicit safety practices and reports of situations where cross-contamination occurred or was suspected, highlighting the importance of vigilant ordering and communication.
