I have been here twice. I was hesitant about going to a fast food restaurant since the majority of them give the Celiacs no options or safety. I was pleasantly surprised that Chick Fil-a has a gluten free bun! I got the Grilled Chicken Filet with a gluten free bun both times and waffle fries. Yes, this chain has a dedicated airy fryer for their fries so they are safe to eat. The food tasted great. The bun was prepackaged and the filet was put in a sealed tight plastic container. i notified them about my condition and asked if they could change their gloves. They were so kind and happy to help. It even shows on the receipt where they informed them to change their gloves. I didn't get glutened either time and am elated to have a quick place to go to. If you are wondering what items are gluten free just type in Chick Fil-a gluten free online and a link will come up on their website. Luckily, they have many grilled options so you have a good variety to choose from especially for a fast food restaurant.

The new restaurant takes GF seriously. We’ve had no issues. My son (15) is celiac’s. We always confirm before ordering and have had no problems with the staff or food.

I heard that they are celiac-friendly and wanted a quick bite on the go. This was the first time I'd gone since my diagnosis, so I went in because I was nervous about making sure it was safe for me to have it. The person who took my order had limited knowledge, maybe a recent hire. I was glad it was not very busy, and the manager took the opportunity to explain to both of us the process. Not only they have a few gf items marked on the menu, but if you tell them you have an allergy, they make sure to alert the staff, so they clean the area, utensils and change gloves before preparing the meal. They have a separate fryer for the fries, too.

Same with all Chick-fil-A places, they offer a gf bun that comes packaged so no cross contamination. I always order the grilled chicken sandwich and sub the bun. Never gotten sick and fries are fried in separate fryer.

We recently found out that they have a gluten free bun so my wife and I had to try it. We had grilled chicken sandwiches on the gluten free bun. The bun is still wrapped in its prepackaged bag when your food arrives so you can be certain it doesn’t come in contact with any cross contamination. It’s really nice to have a fast food option for those times when you are in a rush. It’s also very nice to be able to get an entire gluten free meal instead of only an item or two.
