Recently went there and asked for a lettuce wrap. They asked if it was a preference or an allergy and when i said allergy, they went above and beyond to make sure there was no cross contamination. I had no issues after eating there and my lettuce wrap was great! Of course i miss eating it with the bun but still yummy !

I’ve eaten here twice a week for the past month (gross I know) but I never get sick. When I request a lettuce wrap they ask me if it is an allergy (yes) and they are extremely careful and friendly. Love 5 guys.
Yes
this is the only burger that allows for those allergic to gluten to enjoy as close to normal as possible. Letting them know of your allergy , thru will make your burger in a lettuce wrap instead.
I was optimistic about this place after reading reviews, but somehow I was sick after eating here. Too many possibilities for cc here, unfortunately. I'm extremely sensitive so others might fare better.
A regular cheeseburger here is seven dollars. The regular fries, which is very large, is 3.50. And a soda is two more dollars. One hot dog with cheese and no bun is almost 5 dollars by itself. So you can easily spend $12 or more for one person, and for that they serve you food in a greasy paper bag. And you have to sit under bright fluorescent lights. The food is good but not really that much better than a place like Wendy's. I'd rather pay half the price and eat off a tray at Wendy's instead of eating at five guys out of a greasy paper bag. But obviously the catch is Wendys isn't gluten-free. So that's the only reason I would eat here instead.
This location in particular is awesome. They went so far as to get toppings out of a fresh container to avoid cross-contamination. For an even better burger, go across the street to Stuyvesant Plaza first...there is a natural store that sells gf bread and rolls. We bring them in with us so my hubby can build his burgers on them.
Excellent food. Bun-less burgers and fries are safe (dedicated GF fryer). Reliable and delicious. Staff is careful to avoid cross-contamination.

I appreciate that they always ask if my lettuce wrapped order is an allergy. Fries are the only thing in the fryer, so no worries about cross contamination.

I’ve gone three times in two months and it’s been great every time. I tell them “allergy warning, I have celiac’s”. I order mine on lettuce (they do a really great job at wrapping the burger in lettuce), with everything on it.
I then inform them that my spouse would like a normal bacon burger on a bun. The staff has always reassured me and I hear them tell each other “allergy!” while cooking. They’ve always put my burger in a different bag marked “***ALLERGY***” and there was a red sticker on the tin foil of my burger.
If you’ve never been to a Five Guys, they have a very limited menu of just burgers (bacon, cheese, or plain) in three sizes, French fries (plain or Cajun), and milkshakes.
The only gluten items on the menu are the buns and malt. The chocolate shakes do not automatically come malted, so there’s never been a worry for me there.
