Grilled nuggets or grilled sandwich with a gluten free bun are my go to! Just double check the gluten free bun before eating because I’ve had one that had a little mold on it due to condensation in the package.

I’ve been here a few times since being GF, the GF bun comes in a separate sealed bag and their fries are made in a separate fryer. You have to read the ingredients on the sauce container to make sure. I haven’t reacted there And it’s the only “fast food” type restaurant i trust to eat at. But man do I miss their regular nuggets!

I’ve been a few times since it has opened and have never gotten sick. They keep the bun sealed in it’s package and the sandwich makings come in a separate plastic container. Their waffle fries are also made in a separate fryer.They warn of cross contamination but make every effort to avoid it

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.
