This is my go to Chipotle since I live nearby and I get it all the time. I have not gotten sick yet and I don't ask for gloves changed every time. I usually base it off of if I saw a burrito made or tortilla touched, but usually when I go people get bowls. I am pretty sensitive and I have been fine here
Yes
I really like chipotle and for the most part my experience is pretty good. However, I always run into difficulty with this particular store when asking them to change their gloves due to my allergy to gluten and wheat. One server was very rude and refuse to change her gloves even after I explained. So I asked for the manager and she made my meal for me without apology. Another time there was a really nice gentle man who made my food for me separate from the other food which I thought was very nice of him. Overall I would not recommend this store because it's too much of a hassle getting the staff to understand your needs.
Would not recommend. Had to ask 3 different staff before one could help me with gluten free preparation. I could tell by their body language that they would rather be doing something else. This is not a gluten free friendly place and I would have just walked out had I not been meeting someone there that had already ordered. I've been to other Chipolte locations and have never been treated this poorly.
No
Chipotle does not have a gluten free menu but instead has a list of gluten-containing ingredients to avoid. Cross-contamination is a concern, however, so let the person taking your order know that you are gluten free and if you need them to take the proper precautions.
From their website: "If you avoid gluten, don't eat our flour tortillas. If you are highly sensitive to gluten and would like us to change our gloves, just let us know at the start of your order. You should be aware items containing corn, including corn tortillas (chips, soft corn, and crispy corn tortillas) and corn salsa, may have a small amount of gluten from potentially co-mingling with gluten-containing grains in the field."
Best GF fast food experience so far. They didn’t make me feel weird or like I took too much time. I told them I have a gluten allergy and the line stopped. They changed spoons for what I ordered, wiped down the counter, got out fresh cheese and lettuce, changed gloves, and one person took charge of my order seeing it through to the end of the line. I know there’s still a risk, but I’m thankful for all they did to help me eat with my family.

I was a little concerned when I read it had been two years since the last review, but I went and as soon as I told the server I had celiac, she immediately offered to wipe down the surfaces and change gloves. She did it so cheerfully also!

Lots of gluten free options, good choice for catering, and ability to sort through gluten free options by using their dietary filter online. There are good options available if you're dairy free/vegan as well!

While there’s obviously a chance of cross contamination, the workers here are very nice and accommodating. Everything except for the tortillas is gluten free. I always ask them to change their gloves and this past time a worker felt her glove touch the tortillas after changing them so she immediately changed them again! They never have a problem getting lettuce or cheese from the back which I appreciate! I have not had a reaction here yet and I am very sensitive!

I told the server I was gluten sensitive, and she immediately changed gloves and handled all my food herself.
