First Watch

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• Cross-contamination risk is present because the facility is not dedicated gluten-free. Several guest reports and safety notes emphasize that toasting and cooking surfaces can be shared, though many staff members are described as knowledgeable and careful.
• Some guests report dishes being prepared in separate spaces or with gloves changed and utensils washed, while others note inconsistent experiences or shared equipment during busy times.
• Availability of a dedicated gluten-free toaster or separate prep areas appears variable by location and by staff memory, leading to occasional safety concerns.
• Overall, safety depends heavily on staff adherence to precautionary practices and on clear communication with the kitchen, especially when orders are prepared under time pressure.
