What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-free cabinet items commonly cited include items such as breads/buns, cakes, and waffles.
- The cafe is described as offering gluten-free and keto-friendly options, with an extensive GF menu noted by some reviewers.
- Some diners reported that fries or other chip preparations were handled separately or with attention to gluten-free needs, though this is not consistently documented across all experiences.
- If you’re ordering, it’s best to explicitly confirm that the exact dish and preparation method are gluten-free and prepared without cross-contact in mind.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, which inherently raises cross-contamination concerns for celiac diners.
- While some diners have reported positive experiences with staff understanding and cross-contact precautions (e.g., separate fryers noted in some visits), these assurances are not universally documented and can vary by kitchen workflow and day.
- The safest approach here is to verify directly with staff about current gluten-free practices, especially regarding fryers, shared utensils, and any sauce dressings.
