The last 2 times I’ve eaten at Chick-fil-A I’ve gotten sick. I had the grill chicken sandwich with a GF bun and fries. I think it may be the fries. Each time it was in a different restaurant.

I have been here several times and have had great experiences! I love the grilled chicken sandwiches with a GF bun. The bun comes in a separate plastic package which is great to prevent cross contact. It tastes delicious and does not fall apart either! There is a dedicated fryer for the fries, so they are safe to eat for those with celiac!!

***Commack has a dedicated fryer for fries, but be sure to ask about any other location! It may vary depending on the location.

My best fast food experience since diagnosis! GF grilled chicken nuggets were hot & flavorful. GF waffle fries cooked in designated fryer were excellent as well. All sauces other than sriracha are GF, so I had the ketchup & honey mustard. Sweet tea and extra pickles rounded out my order. When I said I was GF, the gentleman at the counter asked if I was celiac. When I replied yes, he told me that they would make me a special order which would take 5-7 minutes. It was hand-delivered with a smile to my table by the same man in about 2-3 minutes. Great experience. I will definitely eat here again!!!

My dad and I (both celiacs) have eaten here several times now and have never had an issue. We always get their grilled chicken nuggets and fries. The frosted drinks are some of our favorites. Definitely a go-to when we’re in the area.

Always a great place to eat! Gluten free buns available which can be used for grilled chicken sandwiches, waffle fries are gluten free and made in a separate fryer. Only complaint is that the portions are on the small side. Besides that, Chick-Fil-A has been great and I have had no issues with the restaurant. Great go to gluten free fast food!

I was on a road trip, and absolutely starving and in a crunch for some food. I thought I had prepared myself for the trip a bit better but ended up not wanting any of the real food I packed and ended up starving and nervous about what I was going to be able to eat next. I remembered seeing a post a while ago about chick fil a possibly being a safe spot for celiacs so I took the jump and I’m so so glad I did. I went in, expressed my issues and concerns they were taken seriously they kindly answered all the questioned I had and got me out my fries quick! I do know they have a gluten free burger option but I did not want to risk C/C so i stuck with the fries, tested them in my car with the Nima sensor to make sure they tested at least under 20PPM of gluten and glory to god it did!! I was able to eat and finish my drive and made it to my destination happily & safely. Thank you chick fil a!!!

The counter staff had no idea what gluten free meant. She asked the manager who explained that only their pre-packaged gf bun could be considered safe because "there's a lot of flour back there". I explained that regular chick-fil-a has chicken and fries that are safe and he essentially said he wouldn't risk it. So we didn't.

We have eaten here numerous times with no issues. I always state that we are GF, and everything has come out as requested. We aren’t Celiac so I can’t say if they are celiac safe nor can I confirm that they use a separate fryer, but if you are just sensitive like we are, you should have no issues.

I eat their gluten free grilled chicken and they have gluten free bun which is packaged in his own bag The fries there are cooked in a separate fryer that’s only for their fries, nothing else. It is gluten free Just ask them to use separate gloves for you only. Very accommodating. I don’t trust their dips though. I can’t be sure about no gluten. I’m very sensitive and cannot have even the 20 ppm.
