Shake Shack

Shake Shack’s bun is so close to looking and tasting like a normal counter restaurant burger, it’ll have you second guessing if they somehow made a mistake. They do ask if they gf bun is due to an allergy and will make the necessary adjustments when handling to ensure there is no cross contamination. Had my first SS burger at JFK during a long delay and was sooo impressed I frequent the ATX location now. Haven’t had the fries because they are crinkle cut which just remind me of cafeteria fries.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

GF options for burgers include GF buns and lettuce wraps. Husband is gluten intolerant and it was fine. Daughter has celiac and we did not risk trying the bun. (Curious to hear others’ experiences before we take that plunge!) Burgers came in a paper boat with all buns touching... but we didn’t give specific instructions beforehand. Maybe could have avoided that cross contamination with proper communication, as staff seemed nice and accommodating. Dedicated fryer for their delicious crinkle-cut fries.

Such a great experience here! I spoke to the manager who was very kind and confirmed meats are grilled separately from buns. Food (including a GF bun) was excellent!

Had a great first experience. Manager came out to ask about allergies (celiac, dairy and corn) he brought up the ingredient list. Was able to point us in the right direction on what was safe and marked my order as “Allergy” Fries are cooked in their own dedicated fryer, but can’t state there is no CC due to it being a shared kitchen.
