⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not a dedicated gluten-free environment, so cross-contamination is possible.
- Fryers and grills may be shared with gluten-containing items at times; several recent reports note dedicated fryers at this location, while others caution that shared oil can still pose risk.
- Bun packaging and allergy notes on receipts are positive signals, but they don’t eliminate risk entirely; always reiterate that you have a gluten allergy and confirm current kitchen practices for your visit.
- Some reviews emphasize that fries are not guaranteed gluten-free due to oil and equipment; others confirm dedicated fryers exist. Practices can vary by shift or specific restaurant configuration, so it’s crucial to ask and have staff confirm before ordering.
