What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Burgers or hot dogs served bunless, either as a lettuce-wrapped burger or in a bowl.
- French fries, prepared in a dedicated fryer (gluten-free as reported by many experiences).
- Lettuce-wrapped burgers or bowls are explicitly supported and repeatedly recommended by celiac diners.
- Most experiences stress that you should tell staff it’s an allergy so they can implement their allergy protocol (glove changes, separate prep, separate packaging).
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Buns contain gluten and are cooked on a separate grill, but cross-contact can still occur through toppings or shared surfaces if precautions aren’t followed.
- While many diners report successful avoidance of gluten symptoms, there are occasional reports of cross-contamination or adverse reactions, underscoring that no cross-contamination risk is entirely eliminated in a fast-food setting.
- The fries are widely described as safe in dedicated fryers, yet toppings, condiments, or milkshakes may contain gluten or be prepared using shared equipment in some cases; confirm with staff before ordering if you have specific sensitivities.
- Peanuts are commonly present in Five Guys locations (peanuts are not gluten, but can be an issue for peanut allergies).
