McAlister's Deli

We placed a carry out order over the phone and told the person taking our order that my boyfriend has celiac and his food needs to be gluten free. Unfortunately, he was very bloated and felt sick and in pain after eating the purportedly gluten free spud he ordered. Also, if you have to travel more than 10 minutes with the carry out food, don't go here, as it doesnt keep very well. The food is very tasty here when fresh though.

Celiac friendly?

No

They yell out Allergy and the type of allergy and yell out to change gloves. Eaten here over 10 times with no issues. I have celiac disease.

From VA visiting the area. Loved their baked potatoes. Precaution was take.

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.
