The employee at this location was not willing to open a new container for my child with celiac. Other Kilwins locations have been great about this but I would not recommend this one due to cross contamination of not being willing to open a fresh ice cream container.

Large selection of gluten free ice cream
Yes
Employees stated nothing they offer was safe for a person with celiac. The ice cream isn’t safe due to scooping into cones and getting a new tub out wasn’t an option. All prepackage items had a disclaimer about being prepared in a shared facility and with shared equipment (so maybe ok but high risk). I would not recommend someone with celiac visiting this location.

Staff was able to answer allergen questions however there could be cross contamination from the shared scoops

Although their packaged candies are processed in a facility that share equipment, they make their Carmel apples fresh, on site daily. After watching them confirm their ingredient list in person, they confirmed their Carmel used for their Carmel apples is GF.
We tried the apples and they were delicious - no issues.

We always enjoy Kilwins when we are in town and have never had any issues. We love the ice cream (in bowls) and great assortment of fudge.

It seems like very little businesses actually understand gluten intolerance or celiac here in Key West. I had no luck here, as the worker did not know what we were trying to say when we said we were gluten free. She asked her coworker and the coworker said "the sorbet might be ok?". Original worker I spoke with got out the nutritional facts binder and unfortunately all the ice cream was cross contaminated with wheat as its processed in the same facility. What a shame. At least the staff were tolerant and tried to be understanding
