What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gooey Butter Cake flavor (GF variant commonly cited in reviews)
- Buttercream Birthday Cake flavor (GF variant commonly cited in reviews)
- Many other GF-labeled flavors are available; the key is to choose flavors that are clearly labeled as gluten-free in the display case and to request an allergy scoop if you want extra assurance.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility; cross-contact is possible due to shared production and storage.
- While many guests report successful avoidance of cross-contact, there are occasional reports of cone pieces or toppings being added, so it’s important to specify “no cone pieces” and insist on a fresh scoop from the back when possible.
- Some reviews highlight that waffle cones or cone garnishes can slip into cups unless you clearly opt out; this is a known risk to watch for.
- The strong pattern across recent experiences is that, with explicit requests and diligent staff, safe scooping is feasible and common.
