I got a pre made salad that was marked gf. I saw that they had bread for sandwiches and pastries in the case. I didn't explore their cross containing policies.

Their gluten free bread for sandwiches was very good. I also appreciated that they had pastries that were dairy free and gluten free - the items were clearly identified.

The food was pretty good, but I’m not convinced it was celiac-safe. They knew what Celiac was, but I’m sitting at home dealing with the glutening so I’m pretty sure I won’t go back there.

It’s a bummer - I’ve eaten food from there before and felt fine, might just be hit or miss but one miss is too many for me.

I love Flour and all of its locations. They are very knowledgeable about allergies, and have a decently sturdy gluten free bread that most of their sandwiches can be put on— only exception would be their grilled sandwiches or naan sandwich, which cannot be made gluten free. For sweets, they have a seasonal gluten free muffin that rotates flavor, a flourless cake and flourless brownie, as well as some meringues. I only wish they had gluten free savory pastries when you want something small, because while their sandwiches are delicious, they are somewhat pricy.

They were out of gluten free bread by 10am, but it was 2 days after Xmas. They still had gf brownies and gf macaroon. They were very knowledgeable and offered to make a salad from a sandwich and then asked if it was for gluten allergy.

I went here. Almond macaroon was the only gluten free thing. They have no gluten free bread or pastry!! Very disappointing after reading reviews that they had GF options.
