🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free bread for cheese fondue (used as dipping bread)
  • Gluten-free brownies for chocolate fondue
  • Gluten-free snickerdoodle cookies for chocolate fondue
  • Gluten-free pound cake for dessert
  • Gluten-free dipping options (fruits and vegetables) for fondue

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Shared cooking vessels: The fondue setup often involves shared pots; some diners mitigate risk by using separate pots or requesting multiple burners, but cross-contact remains a risk if these requests aren’t honored or if non-GF ingredients are introduced.
  • Occasional missteps: A minority of diners report gluten exposure despite prior caution, including instances where gluten-containing sauces or bread were brought out or where one server’s handling led to cross-contact.
  • Not a dedicated GF facility: The venue is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, so relying on labeling, staff training, and kitchen practices is essential.
  • Positive trend with certification: Some patrons note certification or documented safety practices (e.g., awareness and procedures around cross-contamination) as part of the safe dining narrative.
