  • Gluten-free Bread/Buns
  • Desserts (including Cheesecake)
  • Pancakes
  • Oatmeal

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Not all items labeled as gluten-free: one review notes that sourdough bread is offered as a non-GF option (baked off-site). This represents a potential cross-contamination risk if non-GF items are prepared or stored in proximity to GF foods.
  • A guest with extreme sensitivity reported a reaction to GF oats/oat milk, suggesting that even GF-labeled ingredients can pose a risk for some individuals, depending on sensitivities and preparation.
  • A community listing within the collected information notes that the establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which contrasts with the dedicated GF claim in the business data. This creates some uncertainty around long-term safety for strict celiac needs.
  • Overall, while the restaurant shows strong GF options and supportive staff, there are explicit cautions to consider, especially for highly sensitive individuals or those with strict celiac requirements.
