🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free granola (GF granola) available as a topping or substitution for standard granola.
  • Gluten-free bases for bowls (açaí, pitaya, coconut bowls and other bases) are commonly described as gluten-free.
  • Oats labeled as gluten-free are mentioned in some reviews as part of GF offerings (GF oats).
  • Many bowls and smoothies can be made gluten-free by choosing GF granola substitutions and ensuring separate prep when needed.
  • Note: some claims indicate GF items are prepared with allergen-conscious practices (gloves change, separate stations, back-area prep, allergen notes). These practices are reported variably and are not guaranteed in every visit, given it is not a dedicated GF facility.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The business data indicate the location is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
  • Cross-contamination risk exists due to non-dedicated space; however, there are frequent reports of practices intended to mitigate risk (glove changes, separate prep areas or back-area prep, allergy notes on orders, allergen labeling on bowls).
  • A cautionary note references external content suggesting GF granola could contain malt, which would compromise gluten-free status. Treat this as a potential risk factor to verify directly with staff on the day of visit.
  • Overall, the weight of recent evidence leans toward careful handling and celiac-conscious service, but the lack of a dedicated GF facility means ongoing vigilance is wise.
