What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free bread for sandwiches
- Baked potatoes (e.g., Spud Max and other GF potato options)
- Salads that are labeled gluten-free or can be prepared GF (with no croutons or gluten-containing toppings)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Cross-contamination is a known risk with chains that aren’t dedicated gluten-free facilities. There are several positive, recent reports of careful practices (glove changes, dedicated prep when requested, notifying kitchen), but there are also older or isolated negative experiences where gluten exposure occurred.
- The best approach is to:
- Explicitly state that you need a gluten-free preparation due to celiac disease.
- Request gloves be changed and that your food be prepared with dedicated utensils/areas if possible.
- Ask which items are GF and whether bread is used or toasted in a shared toaster.
- Prefer baked potatoes and salads marked GF or prepared without croutons as safer staples.
