Gluten & Allergen Information
The Bacon Biscuit is not gluten-free since the biscuit contains wheat, making it unsuitable for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Dairy may also be present if you add cheese. Other allergens can include eggs (when added) and possible cross-contact in the kitchen.
Waffle House makes allergen information available on its website, but customers with specific dietary needs should consult with staff to avoid cross-contamination, especially with hashbrowns or add-ons. While you can enjoy gluten-free alternatives like plain eggs or hashbrowns without bread, the biscuit itself cannot be modified.
