No gluten free buns. They tried to give me a breaded sandwich without a bun.

The fries are fried in a dedicated fryer. The GF bun comes in a sealed plastic bag. Only their grilled chicken is safe but on a sandwich I find it worth it! I’d be cautious ordering a shake since they have a cookies and cream option.

I wish they had more traditional nuggets available but their grilled nuggets are pretty good. I think the bun they give you is awkwardly small compared to the grilled chicken and is kinda dry. If I’m at home I will toast the bun before putting it on the sandwich and that helps a lot!

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community I do have to point out that CFA donates a lot of money to homophobic and transphobic organizations so I try to avoid ordering here when I can.

They aren’t open on Sundays.

I HAVE gotten sick eating here before as well. I usually only eat here if other options are minimal.

I get the southwest grilled chicken salad here all the time. I also like the grilled chicken sandwich with the gluten free bun, and have gotten the nuggets, and the eggs and hash browns, and their french fries. I get little cups of ice cream sometimes. Dedicated gluten free fryer. Never had a reaction in all the years I've been eating here. The eggs are probably the riskiest thing to eat because they make biscuits from scratch in the morning, only got them once when I was starving. A lifesaver when you need to pick up something quick to eat!

Chick-Fil-A is really the only fast food establishment I can eat at without a reaction. They have a fryer just for the fries. I always get a grilled nuggets meal with fries. It has always been fine for me but I also always let them know I am celiac and can’t have any cross contamination. I have never had a reaction at this location and only only location have I experienced a reaction and that was a location in North Carolina.

Though the corporate website has info about gluten free items and the order taker I spoke with not only understood cross contamination but has Celiac herself, I didn't feel well after eating the fries. I bought grilled chicken and fries. They fry the fries in different oil than breaded items so I tried them first. At first it seemed fine but I felt gross and my throat hurt after the fries. I didn't even bother with the grilled nuggets as I've had the same thing with them before. I just won't bother with Chickfila anymore.
