Gluten Free at Five Guys

Wish they had gluten free buns, but the fries are delicious and safe, and the burgers are great on a lettuce wrap. They seemTo always change gloves for my order, and take allergy precautions.

They don’t have a GF bun but I prefer lettuce wrapped burgers anyways! Staff were very knowledgeable regarding the difference between choosing to eat GF and actually having an allergy to gluten like myself (celiac). I feel safe eating here and have never gotten sick!

Lettuce wrap or no bun is an option when ordering. Staff changes gloves frequently and will change if asked/notified of a food allergy. Only plain potatoes go into the fryer = dedicated and safe for celiac’s. The Cajun fry seasoning is also safe. Shakes are safe (with the exception of 1 or 2 flavors and toppings- refer to your local five guys website’s nutrition info).

Almost all, If not all, burger toppings are safe. Fries are safe in a dedicated fryer. Most milkshakes are safe. This is a very easy place to order at, and there’s a lot of variety (versus other establishments where GF is a very small and limited menu)

What is the point of asking me if it is for an allergy but continuously touching buns then the drawer with the meat in it and not changing gloves in between or having a espérate meat spot for GF. I have eaten at a lot of 5Guys and this is the most careless one ever. And don’t complain out loud in a small space about having to change your gloves it is tacky! And handling my lettuce wrap and changing gloves after makes no sense.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff are very knowledgeable about gluten issues. As soon as you begin your order, mention that you are ordering with an allergen issue and they will make a note of it in the ticket (along with calling it out down the prep line). The only thing you need to be aware of is if you are splitting a fry order with someone who is not order a gluten free option, you need to make it very clear you want the fries in a separate bag. We've had a few occasions where they oops and put the fries in with the regular burger. They immediately correct the issue by supplying a second, fresh batch of fries at no additional charge. Awesome service, great food!

Love the option for lettuce wrap or bowl. If you tell them it is an allergy you can watch them deep clean the grill. Super attentive and awesome food

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My son has celiac and we have taken him here a few times in 2019 for a burger on a lettuce bun. He has never gotten sick, even though we order food at the same time for the rest of our kids that don't have celiac and can have a regular hamburger. Staff seems to know exactly what I'm talking about whem I tell them he needs a glove change and have his food prepped in a separate area. (They do have a separate, dedicated grill for cooking his food on) Food tastes great too!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had a cheeseburger with the lettuce wrap and the Cajun fries. Both were delicious, and I did not get sick after eating them! I felt as though they were very cautious with my order and even packaged it separately from my husband's non-GF food. I was very impressed!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

You can get your burger as a lettuce wrap or in a bowl. Only fries in the fryer so they are safe too. I love being able to eat a burger and fries with no worries. When you order tell them you have a gluten allergy and they indicate on your order and let the cooks know verbally. The buns are on a separate grill. You can watch them prepare the food to be sure which I do. They changed their gloves before my order and made sure no gluten came in contact with my order. This place was especially great even asking if we wanted the fully wrapped burgers with buns in a separate bag from the fries. I'll admit it's a little pricey for fast food but cheaper than other restaurants and delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Can order a burger as bunless. They even asked if it was a preference or an allergy and will specify it on your order.

They don’t have gluten-free buns for their burgers but can do a lettuce wrap or a bowl. The fries are in a dedicated fryer and the Cajun seasoning is safe. The locations I have been to have all asked if it was an allergy when ordering and then handled it accordingly. They usually put my bowl and fries in a separate bag from my partners.

I love Five Guys! No, they don't have a GF bun but the burger in a lettuce wrap is so delicious that I don't miss the bun at all. They have a separate grill for the buns so the burgers will not have CC and as long as you let them know you have celiac or are intolerant they will change gloves and take precautions. They also have a dedicated fryer so the fries are safe too! Yummm!

Change gloves and use clean utensils - the fryer is gluten free and buns are all heated separately from everything else! They’re so kind about taking the extra care (I have celiac and am EXTREMELY sensitive). I love that I can eat the fries no worries🥰

Comment

You can substitute a bun with lettuce for a bun

Even when telling them I need a wrap because I have a gluten allergy (i have found most understand that far before celiac), 1 out of 5 times the cashier will announce it, its on the receipts, and they change their gloves. Seems like the younger cashiers are the ones that wont do it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They're great! Dedicated fryer! Best french fries! If you ask, they'll change gloves and take additional steps to avoid cross contamination. I am sensitive and have never had a problem eating here in the last 1.5 yrs. Also, right now with Covid, I order on the app for pick up, and then call the store to let them know to use their "allergy protocol".

I've eaten here several times me have never had problems! I get a burger wrapped in lettuce and they have fryers that only have fries put in them. The fries are made fresh from whole potatoes and then into the dryer. When you tell them you cannot have gluten, they are great at putting everything in separate bags.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Dedicated fryer. No gluten free buns but you can get your burger or hotdog in a bowl. Always good!

Without me saying anything as soon as I said bunless burger, I was asked if it was for an allergy. My burger was put in a separate bag. Dedicated fryer!

Very disrespectful at this location... they were prepping my burger and another working KNOWING it was an allergy purposely put his hand on the foil witch made them have to restart the order. Also the same employee was yelling “allergy set up” the whole time. It was completely embarrassing. The women who cashed me out seemed equally embarrassed..

Delicious, as always. No issues with cross contamination! Filled the container with lots of toppings. Definitely will return to this location!

Celiac friendly?

I told the cashier that I’m celiac and they had someone change gloves to personally handle my order. After I got my burger and fries, I tested it with my Nima Sensor and I got all smiles! No gluten present! I didn’t get sick!

You do need to watch them to make sure they are changing gloves and avoiding cross contamination. I've had to stop them a couple times because the touched a bun and then touched my food. However they are very apologetic and willing to remake my food. Make sure you tell the cashier you have a gluten allergy so the staff can take the proper precautions.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff knew a lot about celiacs and took it very seriously. I watched them change their gloves, utensils, and the guy taking my order offered a lettuce wrap since there are not gluten free buns. The fries are in a dedicated fryer. Only the normal fries are gluten free. The Cajun seasoning is NOT safe. They communicated well that my order was gluten free and assured me everything was when I picked it up. Super yummy!

Ate at this location recently. No issues. Nothing fried is breaded. Thus fries are in dedicated GF fryer. Burgers can be ordered bunless.

Celiac friendly?

No

I let them know about my allergy and the seriousness. I watched the staff member touch others orders and then shake off a piece of lettuce into my burger bowl. When I tried to address it with staff they said nothing had touched my bowl (although that wasn’t the staff member) and sent me on my way. Very disappointing.
