What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free scones and other baked goods produced offsite by a local dedicated GF baker.
- Gluten-free cookies and muffins, available as part of the GF selection.
- Sandwiches that can be served on gluten-free buns (the GF bun option is described as a homemade biscuit-like bun).
- Locally made gluten-free buns are available for use with sandwiches.
- Salads and wraps with gluten-free options noted on the menu, plus locally available GF options.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which introduces cross-contamination considerations.
- Reported protective practices include:
- Gluten-free pastries kept under separate display domes.
- Staff reportedly wearing gloves when handling GF pastries.
- Some items (like certain sandwiches) prepared separately in ways intended to minimize cross-contact.
- There is a potential gap in explicit signage labeling items as gluten-free, so asking staff about current safe options and preparation is important.
