I’ve eaten at this location several times and never gotten sick. You order at a kiosk and can see the allergens listed and have the options to leave notes (I say: “celiac/gluten free. Please take measures to prevent cross contact”). I order a burger w/ GF bun and a chocolate shake - always delicious! The GF buns taste so good it makes you question if they’re truly GF.

If you don’t have a dedicated fryer (shake shack doesn’t), then you shouldn’t be profiting off marketing items as gluten-free. PERIOD.

This was the best gluten free burger I’ve ever had. Top notch. The fries are delicious as well. Highly recommended for a burger and fries craving.

When mention GF bun, staff asks if it is an allergy or a preference.

There isn’t much GF but they do have GF buns for burgers and some shakes are GF. The fries aren’t though so watch out for those.

I got a gluten free bun plain and a chocolate shake. Not a lot of options but I didn’t get sick so I guess that’s good. Probably won’t eat here again unless it’s my only option.

Out of gluten free buns when we went. Their fries are also fried in soybean oil. Double whammy for me.

Gluten free buns available. Prob one of the best gf buns I've had. They also ask if you are gf by choice or if it's an allergy to make sure they accommodate you.

it was so good, the burguer was incredible and the bread too, not giving 5 stars because im not sure about the safety, and im not voting it which is making the overall rating go down

Daughter had a gluten free bun and hamburger. Ask the right questions - served on tray separate from other items and clearly marked.

I’ve eaten here several times and haven’t had a problem. You can get your burger with lettuce wrap or a GF bun. The GF bun is very good. I also tried their fries and didn’t have a reaction but I’m not sure if they’re technically safe or not.

Fries are not safe, but the gluten free bun is prepared separately and pretty decent. Yummy burgers! They put in an allergy order. Staff was knowledgeable and avoided cross-contact well. Shacksauce is unfortunately not gluten free either. Limited options, but a good burger!
