What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Lettuce-wrapped burgers (bunless)
- Burger bowls (bunless)
- Fries cooked in a dedicated gluten-free fryer
- Hot dogs without buns (bunless)
- Toppings and condiments that are prepped separately or requested to be kept away from gluten-containing items (with glove changes and separate prep as needed)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Cross-contamination risk remains a consideration in any fast-food setting, especially where buns and other gluten-containing items exist. The evidence base here shows frequent glove changes, allergy notations on orders, and separate prep/bagging for allergy orders, which mitigate risk when followed.
- Fries are often the only item cooked in the dedicated fryer, but some reviews reference other toppings or utensils that could introduce risk if not managed correctly.
- There are occasional reports of variability in staff training or adherence, which means it's wise to clearly communicate your needs and, if possible, observe or request a staff member to lead your order through the process.
- Peanut oil is commonly used for frying in many Five Guys locations; this is relevant for anyone with peanut allergies, separate from gluten concerns.
