🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Burgers and sandwiches prepared with gluten-free buns
  • Gluten-free bread used for sandwiches or as a base (including BLTs on GF bread)
  • Gluten-free toast options
  • Philly cheesesteak and other sandwiches on gluten-free buns
  • Omelets or breakfast plates that include gluten-free toast or GF bread
  • Hash browns and other sides cooked with GF considerations (e.g., separate pans when noted)

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contact is a real consideration. There are reports across locations of shared grills, fryers, or toasters in some visits.
  • However, many patrons report positive experiences when they explicitly communicate celiac needs, request changes (gloves, separate prep areas, dedicated surfaces), and rely on a gluten-free menu and staff guidance.
  • Recent experiences suggest that staff knowledge and proactive precautions are common, but not guaranteed for every item or visit.
