What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Grilled nuggets (gluten-free)
- Grilled chicken sandwich with a gluten-free bun
- Waffle fries (gluten-free; cooked in a dedicated fryer)
- Gluten-free bun option for sandwiches (buns often packaged separately)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The management data indicates the location is not labeled as a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination can still be a risk in theory.
- Individual experiences vary: a few older or less positive notes exist, and some reviews mention situations where cross-contact was not fully avoided or miscommunication occurred. However, the vast majority of recent, celiac-specific reports describe proactive safety steps (allergy flags, glove changes, separate packaging, dedicated fryers) that mitigate risk substantially.
- As with any fast-food setting, ongoing vigilance is important. Asking to red-flag the order or confirm glove changes and fryer separation at the time of ordering can help reinforce safety.
