🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Fried pickles (explicitly noted as gluten-free and prepared with a dedicated fryer in several reports)
  • Fish and chips (gluten-free variants mentioned)
  • Clam chowder (gluten-free variant noted)
  • Potato skins (gluten-free variant noted)
  • Burgers or other sandwiches with a gluten-free bun option
  • Tater tots (gluten-free when prepared safely)

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. This means cross-contamination remains a non-zero concern, though numerous reviews highlight measures to mitigate risk (e.g., dedicated fryer, clearly marked GF items, and staff who inquire and flag options).
  • Positive recent experiences emphasize staff knowledge and explicit markings for gluten-free options, which significantly lowers risk when ordering with care.
  • Notable negative incidents exist, including a takeout order where gluten-free items were not prepared as GF (flour tortillas used for GF fish tacos; croutons found in a supposedly GF salad), illustrating that mistakes can occur and may be more likely in off-premises service.
  • There is mention of accessibility-related concerns in one review regarding staff attentiveness to patrons with disabilities, which is tangential to celiac safety but relevant to the overall dining experience.
