✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free burgers served on gluten-free buns (Schär buns are specifically referenced in multiple accounts).
- Fries prepared in a gluten-free environment (dedicated or separate fryer) to minimize cross-contact.
- Gluten-free burger options are often packaged in sealed bags or boxes to reduce contamination risk during handling.
- Ordering gluten-free items is typically done at the counter, with several accounts noting staff awareness and practices to avoid cross-contact.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact risk remains, particularly during peak times.
- There are instances of customers reporting illness after eating, which highlights that cross-contamination can still occur despite precautions.
- Several accounts emphasize packaging, separate prep areas, glove changes, and careful handling as key safety measures, but inconsistencies can occur in busy periods.
