Awful. It was very busy. My order was late coming out. The gluten free wrap was stale and I was picking out the hard pieces. I got extremely sick after eating. DO NOT GO HERE. Especially if they are busy

Absolutely LOVED this place! They made my sandwich choice into a wrap and it was SO delicious! They have a gluten free sweet and sour sauce that was an amazing addition to the sandwich. Staff was super helpful and friendly, ready to answer questions. So glad I trusted the other reviews on here, this was 100% worth the stop!

All sandwiches can be put in a gluten free wrap. The wrap is amazing. It’s a good size and doesn’t fall apart!

I've been to 2 different locations and have never been sick. Delicious baja wrap and I've ordered with other mon gluten free people, which always makes me more nervous about CC. Definitely check it out. It's the biggest GF burrito/wrap I've ever had!

The staff were very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the menu. All the sandwiches could be made on a yummy gluten free wrap.

I walked in and asked what was gluten free and she said anything could be made gluten free. I got the Baja chicken rap and it was amazing. I hadn’t had a rap in six years from being celiac. It was very good and the sauce was perfect. They have very good tea and I felt very safe eating here. Would definitely come here again.

Baja wrap on the Gluten free tortillas was amazing! I cannot wait to go back here! They also have cider. Yum!

Very good menu, very attentive to the need of being gluten free; my husband enjoyed his wrap. He said it was great tasting. They understood the need to change gloves and the need of a cleaned cutting board. Was a safe option for a celiac.

Fun atmosphere. Told the guy at the counter I have celiac and he had staff take steps to avoid cc. No problems so far so good one goes on my A list

They were very nice here, but the counter help was not informed about gluten issues. ("Remind me what gluten is again? That's wheat, right?") However, he asked the chef, who was out of my hearing, and said the chef said what I was ordering was GF. Hoping for the best, I had a delicious GF wrap that made me afraid it wasn't GF at all since it tasted so normal. I can imagine cc could be an issue here, however I did not get glutened.

Everything is fresh and you can get any sandwhich GF in a wrap! It was perfect! The pastrami.......oh my! Yum! Staff knowledgeable about what is in their dressings and sandwiches. I am unsure if they have a separate area for GF food, but no GI issues after eating here.

Do not eat here. I was so disappointed that they didn’t know the protocols for their gluten free wraps. After reviewing them multiple times with the young lady I placed my order with I watched the kitchen put my tortilla on the board with zero paper and cross contaminate my food. Upon questioning why they didn’t use paper and inquiring on redoing my food they insisted they scrubbed the board. It was visibly stained and I never saw any scrubbing happening. I didn’t feel well after eating a portion of my wrap. Save yourself getting sick & pass on this location. The Cypress location is safe with well trained staff. Go there!

Ate here today with zero reactions. I had the Turkey club but I didn’t know if the bacon was gluten free so I got it no bacon. The young man taking my order already knew protocols with new board, knife, and change gloves. I asked them to pull the lettuce and tomatoes from the back. I ordered it as gluten free wrap. Chips offered were gluten free marked on the bag. Great experience here! I’ll definitely be back.

When I ordered the cashier was able to rattle off the chain’s standard allergen protocols (wipe surfaces, change gloves) and assured me he’d double confirm with the kitchen that they’d be carefully followed.

Always a good experience, haven’t gotten sick & have eaten here many time. I’m very sensitive to cross contamination :)

Board & Brew can make pretty much any of their sandwiches as a GF wrap. They also carry the Dirty brand of potato chips, which are GF.

Cider and hard kombucha are available on tap. The bartender assured me the coffee was completely GF. I assume the kombucha is likely GF as well, but as the place was busy I didn’t ask the bartender to double check.

The staffer who took my order told me they can handle severe gluten allergies. He informed me they wipe down prep surfaces and change gloves for any orders marked as allergen.

I enjoyed the Turkado sandwich in a GF wrap with a cider.
