What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Grilled chicken items (nuggets and sandwich) with GF bun when requested and bun kept separate
- Waffle fries prepared in a dedicated fryer
- Salads that can be made GF (e.g., Market Salad, Cobb Salad) with careful ingredient choices
- Side fruit cups
- GF buns (packaged separately for assembly)
- Say it’s an allergy (not just preference) so staff can mark and adjust gloves and prep
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination remains a theoretical risk if protocols aren’t followed.
- While many diners report strong safety practices (glove changes, allergy flags, separate packaging, dedicated fryers), there are occasional negative experiences noted in the broader feedback.
- To mitigate risk, rely on explicit allergy notes, confirm glove changes, and verify that fries and other items are being prepared in dedicated equipment when available.
