Separate fryer for fries. Very careful when preparing a burger and putting it in a bowl. No GF buns. Tell them you have an allergy. They will change gloves. Eaten here many times and have not been glutened

My first visit here so I asked a few questions: they do have a dedicated fryer, they do have separate grill areas to cook buns and to cook meat, and they will change gloves to make your burger. I told them I had a “gluten allergy” asked for a burger “bunless” (as written on the menu) and he asked if I’d like it in a lettuce wrap instead, and I said yes. This Five Guys is very small and you can see every part of the cooking and wrapping process. When I went to wait for my food I mentioned my gluten allergy to the cook too. He prepared my lettuce wrap in a different part of the counter, and then after handling some buns for another order, promptly changed his gloves to wrap my burger. It was nice to be able to stand there and communicate with him and be able to watch. Fries were great, love to see a dedicated fryer!

It seemed like there could be potential for cross contamination with a lot of toppings so I just stuck with cheese. Heads up that they use peanut oil in the fryer and have loose peanuts to eat while you’re waiting so this is a no go for anyone with peanut allergies!

Burgers and buns grilled on separate grills. Nothing to fry but French fries, so those are also safe. A manager followed our GF order the entire way, and all employees acknowledged that there was an allergy order.

Five guys is one of my go-to’s when it comes to fast food. They only cook fries on the frier so they’re not cross contaminated. I get a burger on a lettuce wrap and haven’t had any cross contamination issues! I would recommend not ordering sauce (like ketchup/mayo) because it’s contaminated from being spread on buns. They have sauce packets available instead
