🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free menu items have been reported, including:
  • Bread/Buns
  • Dessert
  • Avocado Toast
  • Eggs Benedict
  • English Muffins

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The facility is not a dedicated gluten-free operation, which inherently carries a higher cross-contamination risk compared to dedicated GF facilities.
  • There is evidence from diners that staff will take precautions and modify dishes to be gluten-free, and some practices (like separate pan frying for certain GF items) have been used to minimize cross-contact. However, no dedicated fryer or fully separated kitchen processes are stated in the collected information.
  • Given these factors, the risk is present but mitigated by attentive staff and GF menu options; a proactive, clear conversation with the server is advisable before ordering.
