Most ice creams are gluten free. They were very careful with not using the same scooper and asked if I had a gluten allergy or intolerance.

I’m completely blown away with the knowledge these people had. I said I had celiac and he immediately went to the back to tell me the flavors they had that were untouched to guarantee no cross contamination. I then asked for sprinkles to be mixed in. He grabbed a clean marble slab from the back that was free of gluten and he mixed it up for me with fresh sprinkles straight from the box, again to ensure it was free of gluten. He truly made me feel safe ordering and will definitely come back.

The girl working told me that all of the ice cream flavors besides the vegan contained flour despite what I had researched online. Stated that no ice cream was safe for me and to not eat there.

Wow! I ordered the Mexican Vanilla and told the server I needed to be careful about cross contamination. He immediately went and got an unopened container of the ice cream and took a new scoop, just to serve me.

The vegan Mexican vanilla was wonderful. I added m & m's and didn't have it mixed to avoid cross contamination.

They will use a clean scooper and get a separate tub from the back. Many of their flavors are GF but you need to ask - it is not marked. The dark chocolate was so good!

Celiac friendly?

Yes
