🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free French toast (prepared with gluten-free bread and, in some cases, cooked on separate equipment)
  • Quinoa-based bowls / Power Bowls that are gluten-free
  • Farmhouse Hash Bowl served with gluten-free toast
  • Omelets and egg dishes prepared GF (often with GF toast or without toast, depending on prep)
  • Gluten-free toast (Udi’s or similar) prepared in dedicated space or on separate equipment when specified

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Cross-contact risk exists where toasting, grilling, or prep surfaces aren’t consistently isolated; some reviewers describe shared toasters or grills, while others report dedicated GF toasters or separate cooking areas.
  • Several accounts highlight strong staff attention (glove changes, utensil changes, allergen markers), but not every visit guarantees zero risk.
  • The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cautious diners should verify current practices with staff on arrival and consider opting for items explicitly noted as prepared with separate equipment or spaces.
