Grilled cheese made with Udi's bread - very cautious of cross- contamination. The cook changed gloves, and lined the tray with foil when making and cooking the sandwich.

Best GF grilled cheese I've had! However, talk to the management about cross contamination before you order. Read more: http://glutenfreecarolinagirl.com/2015/06/29/gluten-free-at-the-melt-shop/

Same surface cooking, so be warned!

My main gripe with this place is they charge an extra .92¢ for GF bread but my grilled cheese sandwich was only slightly larger than 1/2 the size of my friend's regular sandwiches (which fill the box). It's not really a comparable swap at all, since you get charged more for less.

I tried the tots, they were good as well.

Der Burger wurde mit einem glutenfreien Toast geliefert und war unglaublich lecker! Man kann es dort an den Automaten einfach auswählen, dass man ein glutenfreies Brot haben möchte.

I got a grilled cheese. I asked if they could change their gloves and clean the surface. It was not really busy and i personally felt safe but there's probably a chance of cross contamination. I saw them use udis bread and it was the best grilled cheese i've ever had but gluten free sucks so idk.

I ordered a gluten free grilled cheese sandwich. Saw them take the Udi's bread out of the package. I'm sure there is high potential for cross contamination but personally, even though I am celiac, it was ok for me. Nice to be able to get fast food easily. It was tasty but not super high quality.

I got a sandwich and paid $1.05 for the Gluten free sandwich bread replacement! It was delicious and a good sized slice of bread.
