What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- BLT on gluten-free bread (explicitly cited as a safe option in recent experiences).
- General note: gluten-free bread is used for sandwiches at times, with several reports praising safety when GF bread is employed. Availability has fluctuated in the past, so it’s wise to confirm before ordering.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists in principle.
- Positive signals include explicit gluten allergy protocols, orders labeled for celiac/gluten allergy, and communications that sandwiches may be prepared in a separate area with clean gloves and fresh ingredients.
- Some past feedback mentions volatility in GF bread availability, so diners should verify current GF bread status at the time of visit and consider calling ahead if GF options are essential.
