Five Guys

I come here often— just tell them you have a gluten allergy and the person handling your order will change their gloves and prep your food away from the buns. Fries are naturally gluten free since they’re the only thing the fryer is used for. I always get a lettuce wrap burger and fries with no issues. I will say that this location is usually busy (which is when mistakes happen) so it’s important to stress that you have a severe allergy/celiac.

— Excellent

Bring your own bun or get a lettuce wrap. No real sign I could see if cross contamination here with the fries since there aren’t any breaded options on the menu that would go in the fryer. And the french fries are amazing!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Tell them you have a gluten allergy

Only went to order fries. Fryer is only for fries and they are so good. No reaction.

• Dedicated gluten-free fryer

The food tasted good, did not have gluten free buns like other five guys locations I’ve been to but had the option of a bowl or a lettuce wrap for the burger. As always the fries are delicious.

I have eaten here in the past with no issues. Today was terrible. I asked for a refund. I stated gluten allergy and asked staff to change gloves. They didn’t change gloves. When I reminded them they made a face and changed gloves but then touched bread before making my lettuce wrap. When I said something about it the girl made a face. So I asked for a refund.

Fries are gluten free (nothing but potatoes go into the fryer), and burgers are grilled on a separate cooktop and with separate, clearly marked utensils from buns. Burgers can be served lettuce-wrapped or in a bowl. Almost all shakes are GF (just not Oreo or Reese’s mix-ins), so you may be able to get away with asking the staff to wipe down the shake blender wand to avoid cross contact.

Staff is moderately aware of gluten and food allergies. They’re happy to answer questions about condiments and food prep methods.
