White Castle’s Gluten-Free Menu will make your attempt to relive the Harold and Kumar experience a little tough if you’re trying to dodge gluten. One of the concerns with White Castle, as with most fast food restaurants and burger joints, in particular, is that everything on their menu either has or has been exposed to, gluten. Unless you’ve found one of the rare places that specifically have a gluten-free prep area, nothing here is truly safe. However, you can limit your exposure by sticking to items that don’t explicitly have gluten in them, and request that they hold those elements that do when possible (like the buns on the hamburgers).
