🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • All chopped salads (Hook & Ladder Salad; Italian with Grilled Chicken Salad; Firehouse Salad) are wheat-free by default and gluten-free when you skip croutons.
  • Tuna Salad can be celiac-safe when assembled on the gluten-free roll.
  • Side Salad (skip croutons) is gluten-free by default.
  • Medium subs can be ordered on the Schär gluten-free ciabatta roll where available.
  • Beverages (Freshly Brewed Iced Tea, Sweet Tea, Bottled Sodas, Bottled Water) are considered gluten-free in practice, but watch for cross-contact in service areas.
  • If you’re seeking more built-to-order options, many built-to-your-spec subs can be made gluten-free by swapping in the gluten-free roll.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact risk exists in a busy kitchen with shared surfaces and equipment.
  • Staff often report glove changes, clean prep surfaces, and separate handling for gluten-free orders, but some experiences still reflect the general risk of cross-contact in a fast-food environment.
  • A few reviews mention occasional stock issues with gluten-free bread, which can impact safe dining if not planned around.
  • Toasting and serving methods vary (foil-wrapped toasting or separate prep lines noted in several experiences), which can influence your level of risk depending on how strictly these precautions are followed during your visit.
