I spoke to the waitress, between her and the managers they made sure precautions were taken, grill was cleaned and the items were kept as contained as possible. I’m sure it wasn’t perfect but it was was as close as it could be in a gluten contaminated kitchen. I did not get sick and the waitress was very accommodating.

My son worked there and said the kitchen does not care about cross contamination and will use the same equipment and utensils. Not safe for celiacs!

We were pleasantly suprised with our gluten free experience at Bob Evans in Hershey, PA. We asked for and received a gluten free menu. My celiac 11 year old daughter had turkey, baked potato and vegetable beef soup. She said everything was very good. We will definitely eat at Bob Evans again.

Was told that they could make certain things Gluten free. So I ordered a burger no bun, it came out in a bun so I sent it back. When it came back out they told me they re made it. They did not they simply took it off the bun and brought it to me.

Definitely not as impressed by their number of GF options as I thought I was going to be. I went here with high hopes but was greatly underwhelmed. I don’t think most of their staff knew about their GF menu. This was concerning. I believe the menu was old and has not been updated in a while. The options that they actually still have on the menu, do not have a description of the items. I had to look back and forth from the GF menu to the regular menu just to see what each item consisted of. I got the bacon cheeseburger plain with a lettuce wrap and hashbrowns. They ended up putting the veggies on there anyways, so I just took them off. The waiter assured me that he watched them prepare it and it should be safe. When I asked them if they could clean the area they prepared it, they said they couldn’t. This was aggravating but most of the items that would be cooked on the grill were GF so I went ahead and ordered it anyways. I did not get sick but am nervous to go there in the future. Eat here with caution!

Looking at the gf menu, all proteins on it were cooked on a shared cross-contaminated surface, and they didn't have pans to make it separately. They also had a general vibe of not willing to accommodate the difficult one.

I told the waitress I have a gluten allergy (I was advised to use the word "allergy" because wait staff pays attention to it. The waitress flat out told me the kitchen staff doesn't pay attention to any of that and not to eat anything that is grilled, which leaves me with a side salad, no croutons.She said she can watch them wash the grill, but they will use the same spatula. I appreciate her being up front with me about it. I would NOT recommend this restaurant for anyone that is gluten sensitive or has celiac's.
