For a chain, Wendy's is great. They can make you a lettuce burger, no questions asked, and they also have chili, baked potatoes, lots of salads, ice creams, and you can eat the fries! My go-to for chain fast food!

I don't normally review fast food restaurants, however today I will make an exception. This location went out odd their way to make sure my order was prepped safely. From asking at the register if I had an allergy, to washing hands and switching gloves, to not salting fries and marking my bag "Allergy". I was very impressed with the precautions they took.

The fries at this Wendy’s location used to be safe for me, but I have eaten here twice recently and gotten sick from the fries both times. The fryers or oil are most likely shared with items containing gluten now. They have some gluten free options available, but there are not many options. It is a fast food place so there is a high risk of cross contamination; if you want to be safe, I would not recommend taking the risk.

I work at Wendy’s. This place is not safe for celiacs or anyone with a gluten intolerance. Cross Contamination everywhere even in the frosty machine. The safest thing for a celiac here is the drinks. Risk is high here

They have just a few more options than most! I usually get a baked potato, chili, or one of their salads. Their fryer is shared, so don’t get any fries if you’re sensitive to cross contamination.
