Bad. You fend for yourself.
There’s a gluten free menu accessed by a QR code on the regular menu. Already they make me hav find my phone, find the app, all because they can’t print up an extra menu? After that the menu view is tiny and super unuser friendly. The options are meh. The staff (manager) is uneducated on gluten. There is a bread option. One sad little piece came out with my eggs. Dry. Forlorn.
Waste of my time. Especially as I can see jersey mikes from my seat. Go there instead.
Oh and are you in a wheelchair? No electric door. Get ready to dodge chairs. Looking at the riverview location it should be great. But…Tables are all smushed in on each other. Hard to access the register to pay. Yes I can wheel to the side of the register to access a person….that’s not how Ada works. Never checked out the bathroom, it’s down a hall and behind a heavy door and oh just forget it.
Great place if you are young and ambulatory and healthy.

There’s an allergen menu that you have to scan on your phone. They have a dedicated GF space in the back (including a toaster). There’s a reasonable amount of stuff to order as long as you get the GF toast. I didn’t experience in cross contamination and the staff seems knowledgeable.

Several decent selections for breakfast/lunch and good safety measures. GF bread/toast available for breakfast or sandwiches, and they said can do gf French toast with it (which we haven’t tried). I asked about butter and they said gf toast always comes no-butter, which made me happy for kitchen safety. Eggs and bacon were good, and lots of gf omelet options. Grain bowls also gf using quinoa.

To start off, I have been to First Watch many times with and without my family (who eat gluten-free), and every single time the staff has been accommodating and very friendly.
They have plenty of gluten-free breakfast options with foods that are inherently gluten-free (eggs, bacon, fruit, etc.). You can substitute any bread on the menu for gluten-free bread, including the french toast! They always ask if you have a gluten allergy to make sure the kitchen accommodates you.

I am bummed. Food was delicious but my stomach is paying bad. I told the server I was extremely allergic to gluten and she seemed understanding. I shouldn't have came here. ☹ it's things like this that make me never feel safe eating out. I know there is a warning with it being a chain but at other locations I haven't had a problem.
