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.
