What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Grilled nuggets (GF-friendly option)
- Fries (waffle fries) cooked in a dedicated fryer
- Gluten-free buns for grilled chicken sandwiches (buns are often packaged separately)
- Grilled chicken sandwich assembled with GF bun (bun kept separate, then added to the order)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists in theory.
- However, numerous recent reports describe active measures to mitigate risk: allergy flags on orders, glove changes, dedicated fryers for fries, sealed GF buns, separate packing, and staff trained to handle gluten-free requests.
- Some reviews acknowledge occasional missteps (e.g., miscommunications or items not fully GF in rare cases), underscoring the importance of clearly communicating your allergy, asking for glove changes, and confirming that your items are prepared separately.
- Overall, the documented precautions are strong, but vigilance remains important, especially when traveling or ordering in busy settings.
