What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Buckwheat pancakes (gluten-free) — served Saturdays and Sundays
- Tempeh rueben on gluten-free bread
- Gluten-free, vegan brownies
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contact is a potential concern.
- Some evidence points to proactive precautions, such as separate handling spaces for celiac patients, designated allergen practices (e.g., peanut-free preparation areas), and the possibility of glove changes or kitchen-space adjustments upon request.
- A historically negative anecdote exists, though more recent experiences appear positive, which suggests variability in practice or communication over time. Always confirm current practices with staff before ordering.
