What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Any medium sub can be served on the gluten-free Schär roll (extra charge) to convert most hot subs into a celiac-friendly option.
- Built-to-order builds on a gluten-free bun for safer customization (Build Your Own Sub can be made gluten-free with the gf roll).
- Gluten-free salads:
- Hook & Ladder Salad (skip croutons)
- Italian with Grilled Chicken Salad (skip croutons)
- Firehouse Salad (skip croutons)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, and cross-contamination remains a real consideration in a busy kitchen with shared prep surfaces and equipment.
- The brand emphasizes that shared prep areas and equipment present risk, and guests with celiac disease should review allergen guides and discuss precautions with managers.
- While many diners report thorough precautions (glove changes, separate prep, foil, separate utensils), there are occasional stock issues (bread shortages) that can affect safety and options.
- Toasting on foil and using fresh gloves are common practices but may vary by order and time of day.
