What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Fries: All fries are GF and cooked in a separate GF fryer.
- GF toast: Mentioned in customer experiences; could be part of a GF breakfast if available.
- GF bread/buns and GF cabinet items: The cabinet reportedly includes house-made gluten-free slices, baps, and cakes.
- GF pancakes: Made with gluten-free flour in all pancakes.
- GF seafood chowder: Cited as gluten-free in at least one menu mention.
- GF desserts and other GF cabinet items: Indicated as gluten-free in the cafe’s in-house offerings.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
- The kitchen handles gluten, eggs, meat, dairy, and nuts, which introduces cross-contamination risk for gluten-containing ingredients.
- While fries have a dedicated GF fryer, cross-contact risk persists for non-fries items and other menu components.
- Positive safety signals exist (evidence of GF-focused items and a GF fryer), but the lack of a fully dedicated GF environment means risks cannot be ruled out.
