I used to work at this location and know what the safety protocols are supposed to be and they are the best location I’ve been to when it comes to preventing cross contamination. Just tell them you have a gluten allergy and they are trained to change their gloves, wash their hands, take you all the way down the line so they’re the only one touching your food, and they should pull out things like cheese and lettuce from the cooler as to avoid cross contamination. If you have any problems, the management there is super helpful.

The staff all switched gloves and took brand new food under the counter to prevent cross contamination!
Yes
Chipotle does not have a gluten free menu but instead has a list of gluten-containing ingredients to avoid. Cross-contamination is a concern, however, so let the person taking your order know that you are gluten free and if you need them to take the proper precautions.
From their website: "If you avoid gluten, don't eat our flour tortillas. If you are highly sensitive to gluten and would like us to change our gloves, just let us know at the start of your order. You should be aware items containing corn, including corn tortillas (chips, soft corn, and crispy corn tortillas) and corn salsa, may have a small amount of gluten from potentially co-mingling with gluten-containing grains in the field."
Delicious food! Great staff who is sure to take care of you. My favorite Chipotle to eat at! No cross contamination! They will get fresh fixings for Celiacs.

Made a soft corn shell quesadilla for my daughter on a separate griddle covered with foil. Corn tortilla chips too. :) helpful and knowledgable. Ask for a manager or someone who understands gluten free if you get someone prepping who seems unsure.
Great business model and great food. They are super efficient, and although I am not celiac, so perhaps not as discerning, they're food handling practices seem excellent. The one situation I could see concern is xcontamination from using the same spoon on all varieties and I suppose I could see that if someone touched a flour tortilla while placing meat in the burrito for example and then putting te spoon back in the meat, that might raise some concern. At any rate, for those with milder sensitivities it seems ok.
My favorite chipotle! If I order on the app, I label my meal as “name + gluten allergy”. The staff always changes their gloves before handling my bowl. I’ve never gotten sick!

We asked to eat Gluten Free. The person in charge along with line workers changed gloves, wiped surfaces, got out new serving utensils, got all fresh food needed for our orders and made our bowls. We appreciated their thoroughness and concern.

Yay for the Westview Chipotle in Frederick! I told the woman behind the counter that I have Celiac's and she immediately changed her gloves and personally handled my order thru the entire serving line.
I should have waited a few hours before giving my review. Even though the woman who served me did her best, there was still cross contamination. A couple hours later I had bloating and was running for a bathroom. Sorry but Chipotle is not Celiac Friendly.

Let me start off by saying, WOW. Never have I ever felt co fident in ordering from a non dedicated place before but they employees were EXTREMELY knowledgeable. I asked what they are gf procedures are and right away the nice employe wiped off the counter and without me having to ask he got all the ingredients fresh from the back with clean gloves and a new bowl. He was super nice and friendly, I will 100% be back here again. Seriously this is the place to go if your in the area.

I have eaten at several places of this establishment and they have always changed their gloves and utensils if you ask them to get your stuff from a fresh bin they will never had a problem at any of them but make sure you let them know.
