Chipotle

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We used to have a favorite crew, but they have mostly all moved on. That said, Chipotle is a great place to eat with a gluten allergy as they can take precautions to prepare your food as safely as possible - as long as you ask them as soon as you get to the counter. They will put on new gloves - and they will even swap out utensils if you need them to do so. And the only food items you cannot really have is flour tortillas from here. *Please note, however, as with anywhere in public, some employees are more knowledgeable than others, and there is STILL a risk of cross-contamination. I am highly allergic, but have rarely if ever had an issue at this location...and I can watch them carefully through the glass to educate if necessary. **New app will allow you to order easily - but there is no way to indicate a gluten allergy. I've ordered and then called immediately to make sure that they add a note to the ticket - they know us, and they have taken great care of us.

One of the limited places we can eat due to my husband having to always eat gluten free. He has never had a problem with cross contamination here and the food is great. I also love the food which is a plus!

Awesome service! Changed gloves, used different tongs, everything is gluten free except for the floor tortillas.

Pretty good for fast food, but not sure I trust them to not cross contaminate.

Go there weekly.. I have never been sick from eating here. I get a bowl with chicken and all the fixings!! I can usually save half the bowl for later bc it's so much food!!

not a single person working when I are there today understood GF food prep. never heard of it they said. had to convince the prep person to change gloves.

One of the best places to eat GF and actually feel full! I recommend a steak bowl with avocados.

Delicious clean ingredients and they’ll change their gloves and spoons if you tell them you’re gluten free.

I've eaten at other chipotles and been ok, but I'm having a major wheat reaction this morning. It's possible it's one of my other sensitivities, but none of them give me this reaction that I know of. When I ordered, I told the server about my restrictions. He didn't change his gloves like I've seen at other franchises, nor replace the serving utensils. Like an idiot, I didn't ask him to because I didn't anticipate it being a big deal. And I didn't want to make his life harder during the pandemic. But... Ow.

Great food, most of the menu is gluten free. Tortillas are not gluten free.

As long as you get a glove change and tell them about the allergy, you are good to go!

On Safety

They will wash their hands and change out their gloves before starting. For things like cheese or lettuce where someone could have touched a tortilla and then touched the cheese or lettuce, they grab it from storage so it has no contamination. Only one person touched your food the entire time and you watch it.

The only thing with gluten is a tortilla. Everything else is safe so tons of options!

Comment

The staff is well trained.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Congratulations! You found the only safe restaurant to eat at in York. It's the only restaurant I eat at.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My mom and my son always get the hard tacos. Neither have had any sickness after eating there. We have always had good experiences here. The staff will change gloves and get ingredients from the back containers for us.

Chips gluten free awesome! You can eat almost everything but not tortillas or quesadillas!

Celiac friendly?

No

They do offer foods that do not contain gluten for those who are just intolerant to gluten. I personally got chips, salsa, and queso which are shared with equipment where cross contamination is available. They have a sheet that tells you which items contain gluten! Very helpful and happy I was able to eat something at the airport. (Terminal B)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff is always very accommodating, they change gloves and get lettuce, cheese, etc from a separate refrigerator.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Knowledgeable staff did hand wash, glove change, and changed the spoons before serving my food.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The employees at this location never have any problem changing gloves and even washing their hands if I let them know I have an allergy before ordering, and usually even make sure they know WHICH allergy.

Celiac friendly?

No

None of the staff seemed to know what celiac disease was. They didn’t know to change gloves, or why we needed fresh lettuce. Our 2 girls have Celiac so I explained and they were willing to change gloves and get us some “salad lettuce” since all of there lettuce containers had had employees hands in them with potential cross contamination. The one employee that new where uncontaminated lettuce was started to leave and the other guy was getting the wrong lettuce. I would NOT recommend eating here if you have celiac disease!!

Celiac friendly?

No

Server was annoyed when I asked him to change his gloves for GF protocol. Asked another server to get cheese out of a fresh bin in the back and that server did not change gloves. Bins of chicken and guacamole were low and looked stale. Food did not pass Nima sensor test so bad to throw it away

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered a bowl with lime rice, chicken, shredded cheese and guacamole. Had to ask server to change her gloves to abide by GF protocol but she was good about getting new bins of fresh food. Dish passes Nima sensor test

Staff accommodates by changing gloves but can be hit or miss regarding overall service.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They will change out utensils and food for you if you have an allergy.

They do not have corn tortillas but everything else is safe. EDIT: got sick here from cross contamination. I read other reviews on the chain and some people suggest not getting lettuce. I got lettuce so that could have been what glutened me. Everything else they use spoons for.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Always good and the staff know the allergy protocol.

Did an amazing job with new gloves, new utensils, etc!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I can’t praise this location enough. I go here multiple times a week with no issues. Great staff!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Server changed gloves and washed hands immediately after I said I have a gluten allergy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I asked for a Gluten Free menu and the staff explained everything very well, wiped down the counters, changed gloves & spoons!! They were so very nice and accommodating!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Please read this review. The guy or the girl takes off the gloves and his or her hands. Then washes his or her hands and then put new gloves on. Change the spoons and fresh toppings. Wipe down the surface. For the soft corn tacos they put tinfoil on it no cross-contamination for the soft taco warmer. This place is celiac friendly :)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent place! I walked in and said I have Celiac Disease and the person who took my order immediately changed gloves and cleaned counter. Chipotle is my go-to when traveling. Never disappoint

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My first time there after being diagnosed. I just told them first thing that I have celiac disease and immediately they changed their gloves and knew exactly which ingredients to pull from fresh containers. I was impressed!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I get the veggie bowl and I'm happy with them

They’re great about food allergies here! Sometimes I need to remind them about changing out spoons, but it’s super rare. They do an excellent job and I’ve never gotten sick here.

Celiac friendly?

No

I watched the spoons and ladles go all over flour tortillas and then back. This place is a cross contamination nightmare.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was good with my cross contamination and i trust this place a lot!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The lady that helped me was trained and knew exactly what to do for Celiac’s.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We eat there often and my boys never get sick. They change their gloves and seem aware of what they need to do when serving those with celiac.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

the nicest people ever changed their gloves for me, changed the scoops to clean ones, and cleaned off the counter. in case I got glutened from the tortillas other people get. I have never gotten sick and most of their ingredients are gluten free. I love Chipotle!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Came in for lunch and had a burrito bowl. The manager held the line to remove and replace all utensils being used as well as have the employee making my meal wash her hands and replace her gloves! He also carefully watched to make sure she didn't automatically grab the lettuce from the same tub. She got out a separate tub of cheese and lettuce. Great job of avoiding cross contamination!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I eat here all the time, and I’ve never gotten sick!

Very conscious of cross contamination changed gloves and pulled from new containers.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

chipotle definitely has gluten free items. I ordered a burrito bowl with white rice, black beans, steak, lettuce, corn & cheese. Definitely stay away from their tortilla chips, torillas or beer to avoid problems. Also if you ask for them to replace their gloves for you they will :)

This Chipotle is very knowledgeable about how to prepare gluten free orders. They also are always friendly when they hear that an order has to be gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I'm celiac, and when I told the woman working behind the counter she changed her gloves and also took it upon herself to carefully get me a take-out bowl and lid from midway down the stacks to avoid cross-contact. Chips and queso are GF as well, not sure on processing cross contact with them but I did not get sick. So pleased I can still enjoy one of my favorite lunches!

I have celiac and can order the rice bowel with beans, guacamole, chicken and black beans with no problems. They change gloves as well.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff very helpful and changes all serving spoons

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was awesome! Washed hands, changed gloves and spoons, got some items from separate bins. (Granted they were not that busy at that time, so that was good, but it was still very much appreciated!)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

According to their in store allergen list everything is gluten free expect tortillas. I was so happy with this place!!!!

Celiac friendly?

No

This branch seems to not do as good of a job on honoring gluten allergy requests on to go orders.

3 stars because they had gluten free options, but overall a disappointing experience. Staff didn’t automatically change gloves. Staff wasn’t familiar with menu - I had to let others go before me so I could google.

Don't do it. I ate lunch there last Sun and was sick all day and night into Monday. I told them I had a gluten allergy and ordered a Burrito Bowl with chicken. She changed her gloves, but then preceded to use the same bins and the same spoons to serve my ingredients. At the end, a different server with glutened gloves put the lid on my bowl. They clearly had no clue. I'm newly diagnosed with celiac and thought I'd be fine; I was very wrong. Never again.

Bathroom was really filthy

Changed gloves and spoons before serving your food. The most careful chipotle restaurant I’ve ever been to.
