This five guys offers burgers in a lettuce wrap or a bowl with lettuce underneath the burger. The bowl is usually the best option since you can add peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes etc abs end up with a nice salad!

You can get the burgers in a lettuce wrap. Everything is gluten free except the buns. They were careful with cross contamination. It's difficult to eat a burger in a lettuce wrap but it was yummy and the fries are great.

Boo hiss! This location will NOT make lettuce wraps for burgers. No idea why, since I haven't had problems elsewhere. I asked on two separate occasions just to be sure. If you don't mind eating a patty in a foil wrapper, though, at least it's gf. And the fries! Not A+ fries, but pretty good. Also, it's nice, for once, to have something to munch on while you wait - peanuts - unless of course someone in your group is allergic!

Not a great experience. Asked if they had gluten free options and the girl stared at me weird and then said yeah they do. I asked if they could change gloves and keep food separate while preparing and they said yes but didn’t communicate it to the back people. They didn’t change gloves and they prepared the lettuce burger with a regular bun burger side by side. Didn’t feel confident in no cross contamination.

The usual celiac five guys experience. Staff is well trained and can do a lettuce wrapped bun. Fries in dedicated fryer. Obviosuly not as safe as a sit down restaurant especially if busy but I had no issues.

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!

Separate fryer for fries. Very careful when preparing a burger and putting it in a bowl. No GF buns. Tell them you have an allergy. They will change gloves. Eaten here many times and have not been glutened
