What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free flavors identified in the allergen binder provided at the shop.
- Flavors that are explicitly listed as gluten-free (GF) or certified gluten-free (GFCO) in available materials.
- Ice cream served with precautionary steps: new gloves, clean scoops, and, when possible, scooping from a fresh container in the back.
- Prepackaged GF flavors are mentioned as safe in some experiences, and staff may present a current GF flavor list to customers.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not listed as dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contact risk cannot be completely eliminated.
- Cross-contamination risk exists in any shop selling both GF and regular flavors; however, multiple reports indicate strong mitigation practices (glove changes, new scoops, fresh containers, allergen binders, and explicit flavor listings) that substantially reduce risk when GF requests are followed.
- Occasional inconsistencies in the historic availability of GF options are possible given the non-dedicated facility, but recent evidence consistently shows proactive precautions.
