Zambrero St Albans (Drive Thru)

Menu marks bowls, nachos, hard tacos and chips GF; gluten-free tortilla wrap available for burritos. Fillings come from shared containers and prep area is not dedicated. Staff at other Zambrero branches are reported to swap gloves and spoons and use fresh foil on the press when serving coeliacs, but a community reviewer specific to this St Albans (Drive Thru) location reported the GF wrap being toasted in a 'glutenised press' without foil, and no utensil swap — flagging inconsistent training at this branch. Not a dedicated GF facility.
