What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Grilled chicken nuggets
- Grilled chicken sandwich made with gluten-free bun (bun is often packaged separately)
- Waffle fries (typically cooked in a dedicated fryer)
- Gluten-free buns for sandwiches (when requested, often wrapped/sealed)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Cross-contamination risk cannot be completely eliminated in a fast-food setting, and some observations note that not every item is guaranteed GF across all visits or all locations.
- While many reviewers report strong safety protocols (glove changes, allergy flags, separate packaging), there are occasional mentions that some locations may not have a dedicated fryer for fries, so checking the current practice at this site is prudent.
- A few diners report miscommunications or errors (e.g., receiving the wrong bun or not clearly marked as GF). These underscore the value of clearly communicating allergies and confirming each step of the preparation and packaging.
