Celiac safety assessment and key features

Here’s the thing: The Stand Arcadia Burger Shoppe is a rare find for celiacs craving that classic burger-and-fries experience without the usual anxiety. The personal stake is high—multiple reports confirm the owner (or a close family member) has celiac disease, which shines through in their obsessive cross-contact protocols and staff training. While it’s not a 100% dedicated gluten-free facility, they use a dedicated fryer, flag and bag gluten-free orders separately, and show remarkable transparency about ingredients and prep. If you’ve ever missed the drive-thru or just want to savor a juicy burger on a fluffy house-made GF bun (that actually holds together!), this spot might just restore your faith in safe fast food.
