Celiac friendly?

Yes

Used to be super good for gluten free but is awful now. Because of cross contamination worries they’re gluten free bread now comes in sealed plastic packet and the staff are not allowed open them or toast it. So they basically give you the sandwhich filling on a plate and packaged bread separately. Bread all falls apart when you put it together cos it’s shite quality. Soup was still gluten free but personally, I’ll never go any O’Briens again. Not worth the price.

I had a very good soup and toastie combo at O'Brien's. I asked if they could both be gluten free and the sandwich maker confirmed they could be, and asked if I was coeliac. They then changed gloves and used separate equipment to make th toastie. When it was brought out to me the staff member said gluten free which I always appreciate. Very tasty, kind staff, plenty of seating.

After reading that O’Brien’s are usually reliable, and after a long morning in the hospital, I was really looking forward to a toastie - but I was informed that they were out of gluten free bread. No attempt to highlight other gluten free options.
