Blaze Pizza

Admin please remove this listing. BLAZE has officially ended any and all GF serving Nationwide. They have discontinued their GF crust, and their stores will offer customers "gluten friendly" cauliflower crusts, which their corporate office has confirmed is NOT gluten free in any way shape or form, it just "has less gluten" (see their Twitter) additionally they also have discontinued allowing customers to request a glove change for other allergen cross contamination. Blaze is over.

Celiac friendly?

No

This place is great. They will change gloves and clean equipment if you are allergy sensitive. Always a great experience!

They fought me on my choices but they could not hold their own. They eventually were worn down by my bold, yet firm requests. Although the conversation became a bit stiff and awkward, I do believe the staff learned something from me at the end of the day. I will be gluten free for my final days. This is something I made sure they understood, they will remember the look in my eyes and the determination in my heart. Overall. A good pizza

Newly dxd celiac, and still asymptomatic so I am not a good resource for judging if a place is friendly for super sensitive celiacs or not. That being said, I felt very comfortable with this location. I asked for the GF crust and they asked “allergy or preference”, I specified allergy, and they:

- changed gloves - clearly wrote ALLERGY and put a red GF sticker on paper pizza liner - placed gf crust on a separate board liner not on a bare board - used a separate ladle and bucket of red sauce to avoid cc - used a designated and separate pair of tongs and pizza cutter to cut the pizza

Since there is a lot of flour around, I’m not sure I would label this super celiac safe, but I was impressed with the protocols. Looking at other reviews, it does seem dependent on who you get as a server. Overall a good experience for me though and pizza was delicious!

Despite having a lot of gluten free options and taking time to label gf and change gloves and all of that, they still used all the same toppings as the regular pizzas. Not celiac safe at all.
