🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Burgers or grilled chicken sandwiches on Rotella’s gluten-free buns (GF buns come in sealed packaging and are heated safely in their own packaging).
  • Salads (omit croutons): Strawberry Fields Salad, Chicken Cashew Salad, Cranberry Bacon Bleu Salad, Garden Fresco Salad.
  • Sides that are often cited as gluten-free by recipe or careful prep: Steamed Broccoli, Coleslaw, Applesauce, Side of Pickles.
  • Frozen custard options that are gluten-free by recipe and commonly considered safe when prepared with clean equipment: Concrete Mixer (Vanilla, Chocolate); Root Beer Shake; Chocolate Shake; Strawberry Shake; Vanilla Shake; Turtle Sundae (Vanilla/Chocolate); Caramel Cashew Sundae; Handpacked Pints.
  • Beverages that are gluten-free by recipe: a wide range of sodas, juices, milk, tea, and coffee, with caveat to request clean dispensing to avoid cross-contact.
  • Always verify current fryer practices, since fries may share oil with gluten-containing items at times.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Fries and some battered sides may be cooked in shared fryers; some diners report dedicated fryers at this location in recent visits, while others note ongoing cross-contact risks. Verify the fryer status at the particular visit.
  • While GF buns are typically sealed and heated in clean packaging, there have been reports of potential cross-contact during assembly or in-store prep if staff are not consistently vigilant.
  • The restaurant is not a gluten-free facility by policy, so cross-contact risk remains a consideration, especially for items beyond burgers and simple sides.
