My wife is celiac. We have eaten there a dozen times without problems. She would be sick before we get to the car if contaminated. Thought I should write this review.

My server verified if gluten free was a preference or not and I specified Celiac and she made sure to toast my gf bread in a gf dedicated toaster

Been to First Watch on the East Coast, and they were very GF aware. The Troy location, not so much. Ate here once, asked for a GF menu l, and was told to check their website. Not overly confident on the cross contamination procedures as well. I ordered a salad I had had on the East Coast, with the modifications from the last visit. But, I won't be returning too soon.

The waitstaff try very hard but my friend is sick every time. She has tried three times. No more.

I liked their quinoa bowl. Gluten free options are clearly labeled. Make sure you call ahead if you go on a weekend

I ordered an omelette with fruit and GF bread ( not toasted ). I ended up very sick from there unfortunately!! I won’t go again.

They make it very clear when you order that they don’t guarantee against cross-contamination and you are responsible for the risk. We didn’t stay.

Yum! Several choices and knowledgeable staff. They’ll write up an “allergy ticket” and make sure that gloves are swapped.

Download the app to get in line digitally... there’s always a wait!

I ordered the ham and gruyere omelet. They took precautions because I felt okay afterwards. However, service was horrible! They weren't busy when we came in and plenty of waitresses were working. 3 people came in and were served before us. They waitress had a terrible attitude.

Allergen menu not super user friendly. Our server told us there is GF bread and any sandwhcu/ toast/ French toast can be made with it. She did put an allergen note on our order and with a view of the kitchen we saw glovegloves being changed.

Food was great and super friendly service

Love the food here. Everything is fresh and delicious. They have gluten free toast. As always be sure to tell them it is an allergy. Great staff.

I was assured by the waitress that all safety precautions are made for Celiac customers. I was told they have a dedicated area for preparing food for customers with Celiac and food allergies. They use a dedicated toaster for gf toast. I had a veggie omelet, fruit, and toast. Potatoes are prepared on a grill also used foods with gluten. I felt fine after eating there.
