What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free cupcakes (GF cupcakes): available on select days; described as kept separate in the back and brought out on request; frosting choices are available, and some customers have reported no adverse reactions when consuming GF cupcakes. GF cupcakes are sometimes individually packaged to reduce cross-contact.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, and allergen information indicates that cross-contamination can occur because items are prepared in the same kitchen.
- While there are reports of separate prep areas and dedicated handling for GF cupcakes, the lack of a dedicated facility means ongoing cross-contact risk remains.
- Recent notes acknowledge knowledgeable staff and that GF options exist, but availability can be limited (e.g., GF cupcakes primarily on Fridays through Sundays) and not guaranteed on every visit.
