MOM's Organic Market

This new MOM's location has everything you've come to expect from the chain's grocery stores PLUS a cafeteria that is amazing. You can build your own vegetarian/vegan meal for about $10 from scratch. All the ingredients are out for you to see, and you can watch staff make your meal in front of you. Gluten-containing items do not directly touch any surface that your food is being prepared on, nor are they heated in the same place as your food. Same goes for dairy-containing items. They've done a really great job about being transparent about preparation and ingredients, and as a result I have never gotten sick. I highly recommend this location for its eatery alone, not to mention all the gf items in the grocery store itself!

Yes

Not a restaurant but a food market. There is a lunch bar called "Naked Lunch" in the same building where you can order freshly made, hot vegetarian and vegan entrees and salads. I got glutened before a few times at the lunch bar even when asking for dishes without things that shouldn't be cross-contaminated. The soups seem to be safe and they have fresh kombucha on tap.

There are also a massive amount of gluten free options for gluten free shoppers. There is a dedicated gluten free section in both the dry and frozen sections and you can find gluten free items sprinkled throughout the store. Ready-made meals are available in the refrigerated aisle (across from the milk) if you are hungry for a snack but apprehensive about the lunch counter. The dry bread section also has gluten free options such as Canyon Bakehouse, Little Northern Bakehouse (gf and vegan), and some tortilla/buns.

The beer and wine section has a few options too. I highly suggest Green's Tripel Blonde Ale as it's 8% alc/vol (oh yeah). You can also get Omission and Glutiny beers at this location. There are also local cider options that are gluten free. If you don't like beer, grab a bottle of wine. Something is always on sale!

If you're having trouble finding a specific item, the customer service counter is right by the bread section. Someone is always there and willing to help. Definitely recommended!!

Oh yeah. And there's free WiFi for guests!
