CAVA

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination remains a consideration in theory.
• Pita, falafel, and some desserts are repeatedly noted as gluten-containing items to avoid, with guidance that removing pita from bowls and using a separate prep approach can reduce risk.
• Several diners report successful glove changes and careful handling down the line, while a smaller number describe situations where handling across stations or shared bins could pose risks if not managed carefully.
• Overall, the allergen information and routine precautions appear to help mitigate cross-contamination risks when diners communicate with staff and staff follow glove-changing and utensil-cleaning practices.
