The only thing they fry is fries, nothing else is fried there. Let them know you have an allergy and they take precautions for your burger. It'll take a little longer, but worth it. Everything is fried in peanut oil, so not peanut allergy safe at all and if you're not used to peanut oil you may find yourself gassy/bloated but it's not from gluten since they only fry fries. I have celiac and wheat allergy and I've never gotten sick there.

We liked the food, but cross contamination was an issue as we all got sick and tried a few times before giving up.

Called to ask gluten free protocol for celiac disease. The lady told me it would be my choice but they fry in same oil and don't have any good gluten free options...

Love the dedicated fryer for fries. Never an issue with cross contamination as they are fantastic about changing their gloves every time they touched the buns as my food was being prepared. They are always friendly & very vigilant about making sure my orders are prepared safely.

Fryers only fry Fries, Staff up on glove change for Celiac customers. Watch the peanuts as risk for cross contamination. Fun yet serious staff.

I appreciate that they always ask if my lettuce wrapped order is an allergy. Fries are the only thing in the fryer, so no worries about cross contamination.

I’ve gone three times in two months and it’s been great every time. I tell them “allergy warning, I have celiac’s”. I order mine on lettuce (they do a really great job at wrapping the burger in lettuce), with everything on it. I then inform them that my spouse would like a normal bacon burger on a bun. The staff has always reassured me and I hear them tell each other “allergy!” while cooking. They’ve always put my burger in a different bag marked “***ALLERGY***” and there was a red sticker on the tin foil of my burger.

If you’ve never been to a Five Guys, they have a very limited menu of just burgers (bacon, cheese, or plain) in three sizes, French fries (plain or Cajun), and milkshakes.

The only gluten items on the menu are the buns and malt. The chocolate shakes do not automatically come malted, so there’s never been a worry for me there.
