Chelsea Bagel of Tudor City

I ordered a gluten free bagel. They took an Udi’s bagel from a bag, took out a knife just used on a regular bagel. I asked if they could clean the knife first. He wiped the knife and another person make a snarky comment. Meanwhile the bagel was placed on the counter covered with breadcrumbs from slicing all morning. I cancelled my order.

Cream cheese offerings are amazing and they have a gluten free bagel to go with it. It was delicious! If you have celiac or very sensitive to cross contamination I would be cautious because the staff goes back and forth touching regular and gluten free. I’m not that sensitive so it was fine for me

They have gluten free "options" for things that are normally gluten free (salads, smoothies, juice, coffee, omelettes). If you're looking to have a New York bagel that is gluten free, this isn't the place to go. While they do serve GF bagels, they are the regular ones from Udi's.

They had Udi’s gluten free plain bagels and Udi’s muffins. I’m not sure if they had a dedicated toaster but I had my bagel toasted and I had no issues. They also have a section with packaged baked goods where they have gluten free bars (brownie bars, trail mix bars, etc)
