What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Grilled chicken items (nuggets or fillet) prepared for GF service, with staff changing gloves and kitchen staff being alerted to gluten-free preparation.
- Gluten-free buns for grilled chicken sandwiches, often provided in sealed packaging to minimize cross-contact.
- Fries (waffle fries) reported as gluten-free when prepared in a dedicated fryer.
- Salad options and other GF-leaning items are referenced by diners as part of the available GF lineup, typically when staff are aware of the allergy and take appropriate precautions.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Cross-contamination risk remains a general consideration anytime you eat at a fast-food chain, especially where many items share equipment or prep spaces.
- While many recent experiences are strongly positive, there are occasional reports of challenges, miscommunication, or changes in fryers or bun availability. A few reviews mention locations without dedicated fryers or inconsistent glove changes.
- To mitigate risk, guests are advised to:
- explicitly state gluten-free needs and request allergy flags on the order.
- ask staff to change gloves and verify that GF items are prepared separately.
- confirm that GF buns are sealed and that fries are cooked in a dedicated GF fryer when possible.
