What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free buns for burgers
- Gluten-free pasta (upon request or as a modification)
- Salmon curry prepared without fried eggplant (an example of GF modifications)
- Clam chowder can be prepared GF on request (per guest experience)
- Dessert option: ice cream sandwich from Izzy’s (GF, vegan)
- Note: The restaurant does not operate a dedicated gluten-free fryer; cross-contamination risk exists for fried items. Menu labeling and GF modifications are common, but dedicated gluten-free equipment is not guaranteed.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- No dedicated gluten-free facility.
- Multiple guest reports indicate there is not a dedicated GF fryer, with some episodes noting fries or fried items cooked near gluten-containing components.
- While staff are frequently described as knowledgeable and able to discuss GF options, and the menu highlights GF items, the fryer situation means cross-contact remains a real consideration for fried dishes or items prepared in shared equipment.
- Recent experiences include positive GF adjustments (GF buns, GF pasta) and a GF-friendly attitude from staff, which improves safety for many choices, but the cross-contamination risk for fried foods persists.
