The staff was wonderful. They gave me a gluten free menu and told me they did have gluten free bread. Then when I asked how they ensured no cross contamination they told me they would change gloves and clean their area. The meal was wonderful and I did not get sick! (I have celiac and am very susceptible to cross contamination).

The staff was very helpful. The manager was familiar with celiac disease and went through the menu with us to ensure we found safe things to eat. They do keep a gluten free menu behind the counter. The gluten free bread on their sandwiches is the best we've had!

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.
