What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Meats: Most smoked meats appear to be gluten-free. Several guests specifically mention that all meats are gluten-free.
- Sauces: Many sauces are gluten-free, though one base (mustard) sauce has been noted as containing gluten in at least some accounts.
- Sides commonly cited as gluten-free: potato salad, coleslaw, and green beans. A few reports reference other sides as GF as part of the overall safe options.
- Potatoes: Baked potatoes (sometimes served uncut to reduce cross-contact risk) are described as a safe option when prepared carefully.
- Note: There is no dedicated fryer, so fried items should be avoided if you’re avoiding cross-contact.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Shared fryers mean fried items are not considered safe for a celiac guest in most accounts.
- While there’s a robust process around ingredient lists and manager-led ordering, not all sauces or flavorings are guaranteed gluten-free in every report.
- The restaurant communicates about gluten-free options and provides tools (allergen lists, ingredient sheets, and direct guidance from staff) to help you make safer choices, but some experiences highlight variability depending on crowding and kitchen activity.
