Celiac safety profile

Restaurant
718 NW Franklin Ave, Bend, OR 97703
What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Seared Steak Benedict (described as GF with no alterations)
- GF French toast (explicitly offered)
- Avocado toast on gluten-free bread (GF bread used; guests are advised to verify ingredients)
- Flourless chocolate tart (gluten-free by recipe)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The place is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact remains a consideration for extremely sensitive individuals.
- Several reviews indicate proactive cross-contamination precautions, such as using separate pans and utensils for GF items and staff who are willing to double-check ingredients. Still, because the facility isn’t GF-dedicated, there is inherent risk compared to a true GF facility.
- The restaurant’s GF safety is supported by recent positive experiences, but occasional variability in kitchen practices means caution is wise, especially for highly sensitive individuals.
