Gluten Intolerant

Be sure to say “this is an allergy”, even if you had them check the sauces for gluten and specifically order gluten free. If you don’t, they assume it is a preference only and prep your food on the same surface as the gluten containing food, with the same gloves, and they cut the wrap with the same knife. No steps taken to prevent cross contamination. After I brought up my concern, there was no apology, offer to remake it, or anything. Just a statement that next time I should tell them during ordering and then they will prep it in the back. Not my favorite thing.

They were very nice when I said I had celiac and said everything would be prepared separately from the gluten stuff. I got the Cobb salad, which was very good, and I did not get sick.

Glad there was somewhere to get food around here, and thankful they work to change equipment and gloves when preparing for an allergy. But they forgot to tell me that they slice cheese and store it empty bread bags. I didn’t have time to wait for another one so I just took it even tho I have celiac and probs shouldn’t have. They also say the GF bread is made in a facility with wheat so idk. The salads might be a better option but I didn’t try one.

Really yummy. I was pretty worried about cross contamination (celiac) but I didn't get sick. Big menu. Wrap did get a little crumbly toward the end but good overall.

Loved this place! They took care making the wraps when I asked for gluten-free....still the potential for cross-contamination, but A for effort and I had no problems. A varied menu for vegetarians, vegans, and omnivores. Fyi, there are multiple branches of this restaurant in the area - P-town and Wellfleet offer gf, but the Truro location does not. Only con: this place is an easy walk if you're on Commercial St., but don't plan on driving up nearby as it's near the heart of crowded P-town center.

Best sandwich-wrap place ever, now with gluten-free wraps. I'm sure there's a ton of cross-contamination, so celiacs may want to steer clear. But for those with sensitivity--even pretty severe as mine is--this place is great. The freshest ingredients, super fast service and a great menu of delicious wraps.

We had the BEST experience at Box Lunch. They were entirely familiar with celiac and gluten allergies, talked us through it despite being a busy day, and the incredible lady taking our order even asked if we were familiar with Find Me Gluten Free! She explained that her staff was completely educated on how to prepare gluten free and the wrap was DELICIOUS. Can’t wait to go again on our next trip to Ptown!

It’s a PTown staple! I got a hot wrap this time and it was a little too hot and oozy for me, but I love them all the same. Lots of variety, BASIL LEMONADE and friendly, allergen knowledgeable service.

The counter person had someone else with fresh gloves bring me my wrap which appeared to be prepared in a different part of the kitchen. Just a nice spot to get a decent lunch at with little worry.

My sandwich was delicious. The people working there were wonderful & understanding of my plight. They were also careful, they bagged my food separately from my friends.

Staff was well versed in gluten safety. She knew to use the separate prep area and sanitize the counter before making my sandwich. The Walberry sandwich was excellent. Very reasonably priced too.

I only give them a four star review because I was desperate for food and they closed two hours early the first time I went because it rained... They figured since they had to mop the floor anyway they might as well close? Very odd and not dependable.

When I went the second time , they were right near where I was staying so didn't go out of my way, the food was good. They asked if it was a preference or allergy. I'm pretty sure they used commercial wraps, they tasted kind of like the Aldi ones. The food was good, the prices were decent compared to everything else in Provincetown so overall it's a good option for a quick meal. I just would warn anyone who is depending on them that they seem to be pretty capricious in their house. I was there during one of the busiest weeks during the summer season so it's not like if a rural little shop closed during a blizzard.
