Metro Diner

Have been to Metro Diner in Middletown several times. They have a gluten-friendly menu which is substantial. I recommend you clearly explain to the server about Celiac and question how some menu items are prepared to avoid cross contamination. I have followed this process each time and have not had an issue. Furthermore, the meals I’ve had have been delicious and I appreciated the menu selection.

Not GF. Got reaction twice..Great menu if you ok with gluten.

This place has a gf menu: https://metrodiner.com/menus/gluten-friendly/ It is a chain restaurant that has a disclaimer stating it does not have dedicated kitchen space. It does offer gf toast and buns, as well as breakfast, lunch and dinner options.

Went to the Metro diner for breakfast. They can only offer gf toast. Not cooked separately. The waitress didn’t even know where a gf menu was. Stay away if your celiac

I love Metro Diner. They are incredibly accommodating, have a large gluten free menu, and take careful precautions. Their gluten free substitutions are very high quality (the sandwich buns are some of the best gf buns I’ve had, you can’t even tell) and many of their items are already gluten free. I’ve never gotten sick here, or at any Metro location, and the waitress here even went above and beyond to make sure I was safe and comfortable. Delicious food, fun atmosphere, and I feel great!

They have a gluten free menu upon request. Servers were very knowledgeable and were upfront about the fact that there was no fryer dedicated to GF food. They recommended substitutions for fries and tater tots because they couldn’t ensure that fries would be safe

My mother-in-law ‘loves a diner’ and Metro is our spot - about once a month. I’ve only been diagnosed w celiac disease for 3 months so I’m still navigating it all but I was very impressed w/ Metro. They do not have ‘GF’ indicated on the menu but I’ve had multiple waitresses be very aware and helpful when I tell them ‘celiac’. I usually get an omelet and grits and GF toast. FYI - I asked and they buy Udi’s brand (from Publix) - which is actually very good GF bread.
