🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Beef burgers served on gluten-free buns (e.g., Udi’s buns) have been reported as safe for a celiac diner in at least one explicit account, with notes that the bun was GF and the burger was enjoyed without reaction.
  • A burger option described as being on a separate gluten-free bun (Sprocket burger with an Udi’s bun) is also explicitly documented as safe in a review.
  • While these examples show explicit safety reports, they also come with caveats about cross-contact and fryer practices, so benefits may depend on accurate tagging of orders and careful handling in the kitchen.
  • Asking for the separate GF menu and confirming GF buns are available for your sandwich.
  • Communicating clearly about your celiac needs and requesting that your order be noted as GF, with attention to fryer usage and shared surfaces.
  • Opting for items that have been explicitly prepared with GF buns or clearly marked as GF on the menu, and avoiding items where cross-contact could occur if there’s any ambiguity.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • No dedicated fryers for all fried items means fries and similar sides may carry cross-contact risk.
  • There have been isolated incidents where a gluten-free item was not prepared safely or was mislabeled during service, highlighting the importance of explicit and repeated communication with staff.
  • A few negative experiences exist in recent months, underscoring that safety can hinge on how well the kitchen and servers implement GF procedures on a given day.
