Safe for celiac if the person behind the counter understand what you are saying. We had to speak to the manager who then explained to the staff that they need to change gloves and wipe down. Good food. My daughter has Celiac and did not get sick. My only real complaint is their packaging is not biodegradable and most of it is landfill.

Burrito bowls are safe. I wouldn’t risk anything with a tortilla since they heat them on the same plate with flour tortillas.
I haven’t had a problem with their chicken/steak in a burrito bowl. I haven’t had a problem with their chips either. Nice quick option for gluten free.
Yes
My husband got a few tacos and when tested came back contains gluten on the Nima test. The employee that helped us didn't seem to care when we said we had a gluten allergy. Definitely will not be coming back to this location. Other locations take extra precautions when preparing food for us.
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."
This is one of my favorite restaurant because they will be so helpful if you are gluten free and they'll change there gloves so you won't get cross contamination so I'm very happy about that and they have great healthy flavorful food! Great place for a quick bite! :)

I've had great experiences eating at Chipotle and I have celiac so am highly sensitive. The staff all seem knowledgeable about washing their hands and changing their gloves despite long lines. Word of advice though is to ask them to use a fresh batch of lettuce because the lettuce is contaminated from reaching in after touching tortillas. Probably wouldn't be enough for someone with a gluten-sensitivity but good to know for celiacs!
Yes
Chipotle's menu is so simple, there's no guesswork. The flour tortillas are the only item with gluten, so burritos and quesadillas are out, but tacos (with corn tortillas), bowls, and salads are still great options.
Gluten free option here: burrito bowl. Ask the staff to wash their hands and please use cheese and lettuce from unopened containers behind the line or in the refrigerator in the back. Great food at a great price!
My favorite chipotle! If I order on the app, I label my meal as “name + gluten allergy”. The staff always changes their gloves before handling my bowl. I’ve never gotten sick!

We asked to eat Gluten Free. The person in charge along with line workers changed gloves, wiped surfaces, got out new serving utensils, got all fresh food needed for our orders and made our bowls. We appreciated their thoroughness and concern.

Yay for the Westview Chipotle in Frederick! I told the woman behind the counter that I have Celiac's and she immediately changed her gloves and personally handled my order thru the entire serving line.
I should have waited a few hours before giving my review. Even though the woman who served me did her best, there was still cross contamination. A couple hours later I had bloating and was running for a bathroom. Sorry but Chipotle is not Celiac Friendly.

Let me start off by saying, WOW. Never have I ever felt co fident in ordering from a non dedicated place before but they employees were EXTREMELY knowledgeable. I asked what they are gf procedures are and right away the nice employe wiped off the counter and without me having to ask he got all the ingredients fresh from the back with clean gloves and a new bowl. He was super nice and friendly, I will 100% be back here again. Seriously this is the place to go if your in the area.
