🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Sandwiches made with gluten-free buns (Schär) on orders labeled as allergy or celiac safe. Examples mentioned include:
  • Italian sub on GF bun
  • Hook and Ladder on GF bun
  • Club on GF bun
  • GF bun is often prepackaged or prepared with careful separation to minimize contact with regular breads.
  • Some reviews note that, when available, GF buns are used with dedicated prep steps (glove changes, separate utensils, and foil toasting) to reduce cross-contamination.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The official guidance for this GF roll product acknowledges that not all locations can guarantee a completely gluten-free experience, reflecting inherent cross-contamination risks in non-dedicated facilities.
  • The collected experiences repeatedly emphasize protective practices: glove changes, dedicated prep areas or back-line preparation, separate cutting boards, foil wrappers for toasting, and careful labeling of GF orders.
  • Stockouts of GF bread can occur, which might lead to substitutions or delay. Occasional reports of shared equipment or toasting can appear, underscoring that risk remains even with good practices.
