What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Grilled chicken nuggets (GF)
- Grilled chicken sandwich prepared with a gluten-free bun
- GF bun is often sealed/packaged separately
- Waffle fries (cooked in a dedicated fryer)
- Salads (e.g., Market Salad, Cobb Salad) that can be served GF with suitable toppings/dressings
- Fries and nuggets are frequently mentioned as GF when staff change gloves and follow allergy procedures
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists in principle.
- Evidence repeatedly shows practices intended to minimize risk: allergy flags on orders, glove changes, separate packaging, and some locations with dedicated fryers. However, not every visit guarantees 100% avoidance of cross-contact, and some reports note variability in fryer status or item availability.
- As with any fast-food chain, clear communication about gluten-free needs at ordering and a request for specific precautions (glove changes, separate prep space, marked tickets) are advisable.
