🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free granola (topping) for bowls.
  • Acai bowls and smoothie bowls that can be prepared GF with gluten-free granola and careful prep.
  • Smoothies and bowls prepared with gluten-free ingredients and separate preparation when allergy is noted (as reported by customers).

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Not a dedicated gluten-free facility: cross-contact risk exists by nature of being a chain with multiple locations.
  • While many customers report positive experiences with dedicated allergen practices (separate prep area, glove changes, allergen stickers, staff asking about allergies), there are past reviews describing inconsistencies (e.g., miscommunication leading to cross-contact when busy).
  • An official FAQ indicates that although gluten-free options exist and steps are taken to minimize risk, they cannot guarantee safety for wheat allergies.
