Always good food. Chicken fingers are naturally gf and excellent. Less crowded than location on 8th.
A new favorite. Actual, good chicken fingers! They have a separate menu and many many things are available on it. The quality is very good overall.

This is my go-to spot in Midtown! The Chicken Fingers and French Fries are always excellent and I’ve never had an issue with cross contact. Great for a quick pre-show meal, or late night after-bar snack.
Always an easy and safe place to stop in. The gluten free buns are quite large and they have a dedicated fryer. I usually get a hamburger with an over easy egg and sweet potato fries
My celiac son Loved the chicken fingers they are gluten free and they don’t have them with gluten so basically also the fries are gluten free.. Also my non celiac boys loved them..
Chicken fingers! It has been so long since I have had a fast food style chicken finger meal! Super affordable for. Very decent portion size. Would highly recommend.
My celiac son and I enjoyed the juicy burgers, side of chicken tenders, and vanilla milkshake. If fried comfort is what you’re after, this is a good and fast option. I appreciated that the farm source of the hamburger was mentioned on the menu board. And seriously, gf chicken tenders? Crispy fried comfort goodness.
Excellent!! Our daughter with Celiac had the chicken fingers and fries. They were delicious and she didn’t get sick. Highly recommend!
This was the perfect place for my celiac daughter and I to grab food after ice skating. I had an impossible burger in a GF roll and my daughter had chicken fingers and fries. My bun was crumbly but the burger as a whole was very tasty. The chicken fingers were very juicy and the fries were yummy. Would definitely go back!!
I told them I have celiac & double checked what was gluten free, whether they had cross contamination procedures, a designated fryer — all good. However, they didn’t note the allergy on my order & the guy preparing food never changed gloves between prepping normal burgers (with gluten buns) & the gf food. I saw him set bread down & then grab gf fries & tenders with that same hand to then serve to me. I’m not planning on returning & I wouldn’t recommend ordering takeout since there’s no way to confirm your food would be safe. If you need to eat here, watch them prep your food like a hawk to make sure you won’t get sick. (But food for thought — even if they change gloves to grab your fries/tenders, chances are they grabbed every previous order from the same fry/tender pile with gluten-covered gloves so still might not be safe). Wouldn’t recommend for celiacs.
Great experience here. Quick and satisfying meal if chicken tenders, French fries and a shake. So much fried goodness, and the chicken was very moist. This would be a great place for kids.
Ordered the chicken tenders and fries, so tasty and the counter person seemed quite knowledgeable about gluten and fryers, etc. She spoke up right away when my husband ordered a GF bun for his veggie burger to let him know the patty was not GF.
Had a good experience! Felt fine afterwards. I was especially worried since the chicken is made with buttermilk and I’m lactose intolerant, but was okay after even with that! A little pricey, but good portion size. I got chicken and fries. Would definitely get again. Don’t recommend buying a fountain drink though, it was $4!
We are here tonight and although they advertise to have gluten free buns, unfortunately they had none in stock and offered a lettuce wrap instead. The burger and fries were nice but if you are looking for a burger including bun, there are other options available.
Grabbed a quick lunch here before continuing uptown. They advertise the chicken fingers and fries as gluten free and also have gf buns for burgers. My chicken fingers were good and I felt fine after, but I’m not convinced they really keep any cross contamination protocols. I think the chicken just happens to be gluten free and the fries are cooked separate from gluten foods, but I saw a server prepare chicken fingers after also plating a grilled cheese. They were on separate trays, so some points there, but no change of gloves or awareness of what was being touched. If you are super sensitive, I’d either avoid or talk to the person at the end of the line that prepares the food (it’s a counter service type place, so skip talking to the order taker and walk to the pickup spot). There is another location in midtown that gets a ton of better reviews, so maybe that location is setup different. Anyway, 3 stars for options and tasty fast food, but two lost for loose handling protocols.
My stomach really hurt after eating here. I had a GF burger and fries but I felt so bad all night.
Son loved the chicken tenders. GF along with the fries. Score!
Wonderful experience. Every single thing on the menu can be made gluten free except for the Mac & cheese and onion rings. Food was good. Had a grilled cheese and it was excellent. So nice to eat somewhere where I felt 100% confident that the food was gluten free.
I got the chickens tenders and fries after multiple rave reviews. I am so sick right now. I’m pretty sure it was cc. I’m so bummed. Ordering online wasn’t easy.
I no longer live in the city, but every time I return I make sure to go to a Schnippers location. They are, hands down, the best gf burger I have ever had. And don’t even get me started on the chicken tenders. So good!
The waiter brought me normal hot dog and claimed it was gluten free. I asked two times if it was. Turns out it wasn’t.
I go there once or twice a week for lunch and have ordered catering as well. GF heaven with chicken tenders, fries and buns but the salads are also excellent!

Dedicated fryer, breaded fish and chicken, sweet potato fries. This was a wonderful stop.
We went for a gluten free hot dog, I'm not sure what it was, maybe there was contamination, I felt sick.
All chicken is gluten free as are all sauces, and the tenders and fries were good. Staff knowledgeable and we felt safe.
Came back a second time, this time the location near Times Square. Still good Eats, felt safe, no reaction. GF Fish & Chips!
I’ve been going here for 15 years even before I had to go GF and I always enjoyed it without knowing the chicken was GF. I think they are very friendly and LOVE the self serve all you can drink sodas.
I got chicken tenders and fries! Very yummy! Went with 2 other friends- me and 1 other received our food very fast, but another friend didn't receive their food. When they asked where it was, the staff claimed that they were already served. They were very rude and almost didn't serve my friend. Food was good, but nasty employees.
