What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Most meats are gluten-free (with pulled pork commonly noted as not GF in several accounts).
- BBQ sauces are gluten-free.
- Coleslaw and potato salad are repeatedly mentioned as GF-friendly.
- Plain baked potatoes are cited by multiple diners as a GF option.
- Note: Always avoid items explicitly flagged as not GF (e.g., pulled pork in some reports) and verify against the in-store allergen sheet.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists in theory.
- However, numerous diners report robust precautions: changing gloves, using clean cutting boards/knives, preparing GF items on separate surfaces, and providing allergen information to guests.
- Some menu items and sides have been cited as not GF (notably pulled pork and certain creamed corn preparations), so clear communication is essential.
- There are occasional notes about breads or bread surfaces being present elsewhere in the store; informing staff to “no bread” helps minimize exposure.
