Five Guys

Every time we go there, they’re always very careful about the cross contamination after I tell them I have Celiac. Never had a reaction there, and the food is always great!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had no problems ordering here. The girl even initiated a change in gloves for the guy at the grill without me asking. It will be a good six hours before I know of I got sick or not, but I've never had a problem at any other five guys. If I do get sick, I'll definitely post an update.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have tried to eat here 3 different times and have gotten sick every time. I don't have problems with other Five Guys, just this one in particular. When you try to tell them you have celiac you get a stupid look, when you say you have a food allergy one girl actually offered me a napkin. I asked her what was it for and she said to blow my nose.

Celiac friendly?

No

Tell them you are gluten free and they mark no bun and all toppings on the side on your order. Don't order a cheeseburger because they don't care that the foil sticks to the cheese without a bun. Asked for a plate to mix it all together like a salad and they couldn't accommodate. Ended up scraping cheese off foil, using foil as plate, and feeling humiliated all the while. Guess I'll stick to burgers off the grill at home to avoid this embarrassment and hassle.

Went here and stated the gluten allergy and ordered a cheeseburger and fries to share with my son. They put my burger in its own bag but put the fries in the bag with the other burger. I heard her say lettuce wrap and think she changed her gloves. Not really sure how the condiments stay GF..I didn't ask

I order a burger with a lettuce wrap. Good, well-priced, delicious. Dedicated fryer and excellent fries. A regular in the Charlottesville GF rotation. Cashier will ask you if gf is an allergy or preference, if they don't ask -- you can tell them.
