What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free bread for sandwiches
- All gluten-free sides (the menu emphasizes that sides are gluten-free)
- Gluten-free soups (soup of the day is gluten-free)
- Gluten-free desserts (cakes and pies are regularly offered)
- Gluten-free items are labeled GF on the menu, with notes about avoiding cross-contamination and using a dedicated toaster and specific preparation practices
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so some cross-contact risk remains inherent in a small, busy kitchen.
- Several reviewers highlight staff familiarity with gluten-free needs and cross-contamination precautions (e.g., dedicated toaster, aluminum foil wrapping for GF sandwiches), but a past negative experience exists where a GF order was mishandled, leading to concern about consistency.
- Overall, safety depends on clear communication of needs and trusting the staff’s ongoing adherence to precautions.
