First Watch

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• Cross-contact risk exists in several forms (shared toasters, grill surfaces, and prep areas) as noted by multiple diners.
• Some guests report dedicated gluten-free spaces or separate equipment (glove changes, separate pans) being used for gluten-free orders, while others describe no dedicated toaster or shared preparation surfaces.
• Incidents of illness tied to gluten exposure have appeared in recent reports, underscoring that safety is not guaranteed and depends on staff execution during each visit.
• Overall, there is strong emphasis on staff knowledge and allergen communication, but the variability across visits means nothing is guaranteed.
