Review of Schnipper's

Grabbed a quick lunch here before continuing uptown. They advertise the chicken fingers and fries as gluten free and also have gf buns for burgers. My chicken fingers were good and I felt fine after, but I’m not convinced they really keep any cross contamination protocols. I think the chicken just happens to be gluten free and the fries are cooked separate from gluten foods, but I saw a server prepare chicken fingers after also plating a grilled cheese. They were on separate trays, so some points there, but no change of gloves or awareness of what was being touched. If you are super sensitive, I’d either avoid or talk to the person at the end of the line that prepares the food (it’s a counter service type place, so skip talking to the order taker and walk to the pickup spot). There is another location in midtown that gets a ton of better reviews, so maybe that location is setup different. Anyway, 3 stars for options and tasty fast food, but two lost for loose handling protocols.
