Exercise Caution No Dedicated Fryer Trust Score Range: 30-49/100

GlutenChat Community Verdict

Five Guys does not use dedicated fryers and the buns are a major cross-contamination risk. However, the fries are cooked in peanut oil in a shared fryer. GlutenChat community verdict: the fries alone carry cross-contamination risk from shared fryer oil.

What to Ask Before You Order at Five Guys

  1. "Do you have a dedicated gluten-free fryer?" — If the answer is no, avoid all fried items.
  2. "Can you change your gloves before preparing my order?" — Cross-contamination from gloves is one of the most common sources of accidental gluten exposure.
  3. "Are the prep surfaces cleaned between gluten and gluten-free orders?" — Shared cutting boards and prep surfaces are a major risk.
