What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Hook & Ladder sub on gluten-free bun (Schär) — documented in multiple orders and praised for safety when prepared with precautions.
- Club on gluten-free bun — prepared on GF bread and noted by diners as safe when the team follows allergy protocols.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination is a real consideration.
- Some orders indicate the use of the same oven or toaster for GF and regular bread, though foil-wrapping or separate trays are used in many cases to reduce risk.
- While many staff members carefully change gloves and sanitize surfaces, there are reports noting cross-contact practices can vary by location and staff. Always communicate clearly that you have a gluten allergy or celiac disease and ask how your sandwich will be prepared.
- Availability of gluten-free bread can fluctuate, which may affect your planning if you’re counting on a GF option.
