What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free subs made with Udi’s gluten-free bread (regular and giant sizes reported).
- Gluten-free bowls as an alternative to bread-based subs.
- Gluten-free cookies (Udi’s) and GF chips are mentioned as available sides.
- Note: availability can vary by location and time; guests commonly report asking about allergy vs preference and following GF prep protocols.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Cross-contamination is described as a non-zero risk in fast-food contexts, but the majority of evidence demonstrates robust precautions: dedicated GF prep areas, separate knives, new gloves, parchment paper barriers, and separate mayo bottles.
- A few reviews note variability in practice during peak times or occasional lapses; these are far less common in the recent, abundant positive feedback.
- The dossier notes the location is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which means there is still inherent risk relative to a true GF-only facility. However, the large body of recent evidence supports consistent, careful practices aimed at minimizing cross-contact.
