What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free ice cream flavors (these flavors are frequently marked as GF on the menu and discussed by staff in reviews).
- Gluten-free cones (available at times; some reviews report GF cones, others note variability in availability). If cones aren’t available, cups are a safe alternative.
- Note: A few recent remarks indicate that gluten-free cones may not always be offered at this location, so asking about current availability is wise.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The site is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there is an inherent cross-contamination risk if strict procedures aren’t followed consistently.
- However, multiple recent reports describe proactive safety practices: staff scooping from fresh containers, using clean scoops, changing gloves, washing hands, and handling labeled GF flavors with care.
- The best approach in this setting is to explicitly request the allergen protocol, confirm that fresh containers and gloves are used, and opt for GF-labeled flavors or cups when possible.
