There are three different types of gluten-free donuts, kept separately. I have Celiac disease and had no issues.

This crew is so lovely and kind! I came for a chicken sandwich and fries (all gluten free AND delicious which is a DREAM) and left with a Shake of the Month which was chocolate covered strawberry. Thanks guys 🥰

This place was very good. I have celiac and am super sensitive and did not get sick. I informed the staff of my allergy and they changed their gloves, used different serving spoons for hot toppings, and gave me cold toppings from new containers. I would definitely recommend this place!

Call in an order to go for four people. Got home and realized the labels on several of the trays were wrong so then had to do a mix and match to figure out if we actually got what we ordered. I'm come to find out that we actually had the food we ordered they just mislabeled the lids. Thank goodness we didn't have to walk the 25 minutes back to the restaurant from where we live. The food was good that chicken was amazing it was a tender and soft my husband's snake was great on his bowl it just seems that they put quite a lot of rice rather than the vegetables in order to make the bowl full. It would be nice if there was more vegetables in the bowl than just so much rice. I was thankful for the gluten-free naan it was rather hard and even microwaving it with a soft wet towel did not bring it back to life. The yogurt sauce on the side was best rather than putting it all over the salad. Would eat here again. is a bit spendy.

My first time here I tried the Chicago Burger I was so excited to find a gluten free spot and so happy the food was so delicious . You can't tell the difference the burger was plant based and tasted just like a grilled burger. Certainly not the last time I'll be back for the chicken sandwich and banana split. All gluten Free ! ❤️

Love shake shack for their gluten free options! This location was quick, clean, and orders were correct. Clean bathrooms. Open late.

Came because I saw they had gluten free options - they use a GF pita and they have an allergen menu listed online. We waited about 20 minutes for 2 sandwiches and an order of fries at 8pm on a Sunday evening. There were about 6 other customers there. The fries were really good.

They have gluten free wraps! And they were very careful about cross contamination, they grilled it with foil covering it. Great falafel.

Maybe not the best donuts in the city, but one of the top options. Well above the Chicago chains Stan's or Do-Rite. Vietnamese coffee is made to order and very rich. The gluten free donuts are some of the best I have ever had and almost indistinguishable from the regular ones which is hard to pull off if you've ever had gluten free food before.

Michael Brody

The food was very good and the atmosphere was very pleasant. Gluten free pizza was available. I thought it was very thoughtful that they have tables of all sizes to accommodate parties of all sizes, even 2 tables that seat 10 people each. Will definitely return. Recommended!

Don’t sleep on this place! Fantastic, huge and juicy burgers served up SO fresh and delicious old school shakes to go with them! I had the gluten free bun and even though it didn’t look very handsome it tasted amazing, one of the best gf buns I ever had. The place is spotless clean, staff are super friendly and once they start preparing your order the smells will get you salivating 😅 Such a pleasantly surprising restaurant.

Food is always good. However, today was the 2nd time that something was missing from my order. Last time it was the salmon and now it’s the gluten free pita. I’ll think twice before I order from this place again. Manager didn’t even give a credit or discount for a next time. Really bad customer service and experience.

I went through the drive through twice within a half hour. The voice over the speaker was so friendly. When I got to the window, same friendly person, but didn't get a look at his name tag. Wish I would have paid closer attention, because he has a great personality. It was about 10:45 pm the first time, so about 11:15 pm the second. So, to the friendly drive through guy with dark brown hair and beard, who was working at 10:45 pm, today Monday, June 16th, job well done. Now, the food. Yes, it's just Burger King, but the fries were hot and fresh, the whoppers, cooked right, got my special requests correct both times, enough of everything. I am not even supposed to be eating gluten and thought will this really be worth it, and yes, yes it was!!!

I had an appalling experience at Shack Burger on August 7th, around 8 PM. I ordered a gluten-free burger without bacon due to dietary restrictions. To my dismay, when my order finally arrived—after a 15-minute wait—I found that the burger still had bacon on it. This is not just an issue of preference; it’s a serious health concern. When I brought this to the attention of the staff, instead of preparing a new burger as they should have, they simply removed the bacon from the existing burger and handed it back to me. This is completely unacceptable. The fact that they thought this was an appropriate way to address the situation shows a blatant disregard for customer safety and a total lack of professionalism. When I confronted them about this, they insisted they had prepared a new burger in just 30 seconds—a claim that’s both insulting and clearly untrue given the original 15-minute wait time. It’s clear that they either lied to me or did not take my concerns seriously. As someone who has to be extremely cautious about what I eat due to health reasons, I find this behavior outrageous. Shack Burger needs to educate their staff on the importance of handling food allergies with care and respect. This kind of carelessness can lead to serious health risks, and it’s appalling to see such a lack of concern. I am deeply disappointed and furious about how my situation was handled. I expect much better from an establishment that serves food to the public. I will not be returning and will advise others, especially those with food allergies, to avoid this place until they can assure their customers that they are capable of properly handling special dietary requests.
