A gentleman here led me to believe they were accommodating to us as my girl is celiac and come to find out later they do not use different toasters or separate prep area. I was not pleased at all. Not celiac friendly like this website states.

Good gluten free options and even have gluten free bread. Loved being able to order my kids a grilled cheese and it being safe for them to eat.

Although there's not a dedicated gluten-free menu they have GF bread so can make most of the sandwiches gluten-free. I had a grilled turkey and cheddar which was very good. There were numerous sides to select from but I didn't take a chance on that. I'm happy to say no after effects! I'd recommend this place.

Their gluten free bread is just super yummy!! I get it when I'm with my hubby who has Celiacs because it really does have a good taste and texture. It's very much like "normal" bread. Not the super heavy, dense gritty bread w have had elsewhere. We no go there quite often because this is on of few places we have many choices in sandwiches. THANK YOU McAlisters for being celiac friendly!!

I had a gluten free sandwich and the bread was good. It was soft and didn’t fall apart. There also salads and baked potatoes that are gluten free. The menu has an icon to show which items are gluten free. None of the soups or desserts are gluten free, sadly.

Absolutely amazing. They asked if it were an allergy or preference and when I told them I had celiacs they immediately told the kitchen. These sandwiches are amazing. The bread is so good. Highly recommended.
