✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free bun: Individually wrapped bun available upon request.
- Gluten-free chicken options: Gluten-free chicken tenders (rice-flour based in some reports) and gluten-free chicken sandwiches.
- Fries: Natural-cut fries prepared in a dedicated gluten-free fryer.
- Meats: Roast beef, turkey, and ham are offered as gluten-free components when ordered with GF bun or as separate pieces; overall readiness to separate meats from potential gluten-containing components is highlighted in several accounts.

- Condiments and sides: Many condiments are gluten-free; sides like baked potatoes, veggie sticks, side salads, and chips are listed among gluten-free options.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not described as a dedicated gluten-free environment, which means cross-contamination risk cannot be ruled out entirely.
- However, numerous recent guest experiences emphasize protective measures (dedicated fryers, individually wrapped GF buns, allergy labeling, glove changes) and a culture of staff education on gluten-free needs.
- A single recent negative experience highlights that conditions can vary by location and staff, underscoring the importance of clearly communicating allergy needs and requesting specific precautions (e.g., dedicated fryer verification, separate packaging, and visible allergen handling).
