I was informed that they do have gluten free buns but "all out patties contain gluten" I'm not sure if that was true or just based on ignorance. I did not take a chance!

There is NO dedicated fryer. They have gluten free buns. It was toasted, and I don’t know if that was done safely. I’ll find out soon. The worker changed gloves to make my burger.

Very accommodating, they use a separate frier for celiac. Pretty much everything can be substituted to be gluten free and they put everything in a separate bag from the rest of the order if required.

Had an amazing chicken sandwich instead of hamburger on a gluten free bun and had tator tots from the dedicated fryer for fries. The staff was amazing and made sure to toast my bum on a clean grill instead of in the shared toaster!

Never had an issue after several visits post-diagnosis. They're always helpful and ensure that the request is due to allergy and not preference.
