🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free sandwiches and wraps made with gluten-free bread or wraps (including gluten-free bagels and GF wraps) used for various fillings.
  • Quesadillas or similar options prepared on gluten-free wraps/breads (e.g., Cowboy Quesadilla on GF wrap; Triple B sandwich on GF bread).
  • Salads and soups that can be prepared gluten-free, with some diners noting GF dressings and staff readiness to verify ingredients.
  • Gluten-free desserts available on occasion.
  • There are reports of a completely separate area for GF items and practices to avoid cross-contact (e.g., wrapping GF bread in foil to prevent contact), though there is no claim of a dedicated GF facility.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • There is some cross-contact risk risk in practice, as with many places that are not a fully dedicated GF facility. A past report described a crouton appearing in a salad, illustrating that mistakes can occur.
  • Precautions vary by visit and staff training. Some diners received explicit confirmations and measures (e.g., separate prep spaces or foil-wrapping), while others rely on staff to verify and adapt orders.
  • Overall, precautions are described as serious and improving in recent experiences, but absolute guarantees are not claimed in the collected information.
