Flatbread Company

Love their pizza and haven’t had a problem.

They take cross contamination seriously and the staff was knowledgeable. Pizza was really good too!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Yes, this place has airborne flour. So despite their many precautions (separate prep area in back room, no shared cooking surfaces or utensils), if you are super sensitive this might not be the place for you. At my last visit, they delivered my wife’s gluten pizza on the top of the two-tiered rack, with my GF pizza on the bottom. So that wasn’t great. I have personally never gotten sick and have eaten here several times, and will continue to enjoy it once in awhile since I don’t have a ton of choices within an hour drive. But it might not be for everyone.

Very good pizza crust and tomato sauce but I can’t recommend Flatbread because we were not informed by our server that GF pizzas take 50+ minutes as compared to non GF. Our server was very attentive until she got our order than we didn’t see her again until the check came over an hour and a half later. Never offered refills on drinks or advised us on the increase wait time for GF. We saw another family come in, eat and leave all in 50 minutes! Do not bring children here! I should mention the restaurant was only ⅔ full and it was 1:30 on a Saturday.

My daughter’s gf pizza was prepared in its own sheet pan to avoid cross-contamination. She loved it. The server was very knowledgeable and understanding.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I normally don't do pizza places because of flour/cross contamination risks, but I tried this place on our last day of vacation based off of the reviews. While they do offer gf pizza, separate prep area and it's cooked on it's own tray in the oven, I still got very sick. There's flour everywhere in here and I'm also wondering if maybe they used the same pizza cutter despite all the other precautions. Either way...it was not a pleasant road trip home.

Great experience! Gluten free pizza made in a separate disposable tin. Crust was from “A Peace of Mind” bakery...delicious. Dairy free was available, too!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious GF pizzas available, not sure what crust they use but it's great! You still get the stone oven taste but they cook it on its own single-use tray so it's safe. Been here several times now without issue.

Excellent gluten free pizza! Knowledgeable server, our pizza was made on disposable pans, separate prep area and ingredients. Crusts are made by “A piece of mind” bakery in NH. My 8 year old with celiac was in heaven. Salads were yummy too!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good selection of GF options (including dessert), asked if it was a preference or allergy, and didn't make me sick. They prepared the pizza in a separate area and cooked it on a safe pan. I went here based on the good reviews here on Find Me GF--after my server gave me all the disclaimers about how they can't guarantee anything is GF, told me the precautions they take, and came just short of recommending that someone with celiac shouldn't eat there, I went ahead and ate here based on their good reviews and had no issues, but the server nearly had me too scared to eat there.

Celiac friendly?

Amazing flatbread and the tables outside in the back are awesome on a nice summer night! I had the brownie sundae as well and didn't get sick. Would definitely go back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

diary free cheese available too

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great pizza and they had a couple of dessert options too (not just ice cream)!

Pizza is great! Each waiter that I’ve had is knowledgeable about gluten free options and ask if the pizza needs to be cooked on a separate stone. Highly recommended

Incredible gf flatbread - the best crust I've ever had! Also a gf lemon whoopie pie, Ah-mazing!!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

That brownie Sunday was the death of me. (In a good way) btw pizza was good too!

Great spot for gf pizza, the dough is below average, but the gf brownie sundae is to die for.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

When you order the gluten free pizza the server should ask if it's an intolerance or celiac- ie if they should put it in a safe pan- if they don't make sure to mention celiac! They can prepare the pizza in a separate area the server informed me. Good to have this option when going out with people. I am not a huge fan of the crust as I think it's a little soggy but still good toppings and great to have the option of safe pizza in downtown Portland.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Awesome! Finally a GF crust that isn't like hard and crispy. Sat outside and had great views of the harbor. Service was really good.

We ordered the flatbread special with prosciutto, red onions, cranberries, and I believe three different types of cheeses... Drizzled with a balsamic reduction! It was so tasty! The dough is by far the best I've ever had! It was a perfect size to share. I also had a bottle lavender lemonade mead wine -- I highly recommend it! Great quality ingredients! The only downfall to this place is the service took soooo long.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great pizza. Know about celiac. Will go back

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very good gf pizza, salad and gf brownie dessert. Water views.

Fast! Texture is amazing, taste homemade. Best Pizza period!

Best GF pizza ever. I made mine a meat lovers All organic sausage, bacon, pepperoni, and chicken. Great place, staff, and located right by the cruise ship dock.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great options, awesome staff, and their gf pizza crust is delicious.

Amazing gluten free pizza! Fantastic salads.

Great view too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Best GF pizza I've had! Usually a little bit of a wait, and a tad pricey, but it's well worth it!

Always a great experience with delicious food. Often a wait for a table, but I prefer the bar anyway. Great options for GF pizza, delicious, fresh ingredients, and the specials are always interesting and worth trying. Good selection of GF beer and cider. The staff is always friendly.

The best GF pizza in the area! I've literally tried all of the other options and this crust is fantastic! We always get the special because they have a more creative topping - both a veggie special and a meat special are offered.

Very tasty, and alot of options for those with celiac. On their menu they have a disclaimer, saying they can't 100% guarantee gluten free - because they make pizzas and have flour in the air. But I had no problem

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Best flatbread pizza, just like elsewhere are other locations

They cook all gluten free pizzas on a tin foil pan so they don’t go on the stone with the regular pizzas. They prepare the pizza in a separate area.

Always delicious but the seem to drop the ball more often than not if you don't engage management. ALWAYS ask to speak to a manager here.

Knowledge server and a delicious GF vegan crust for an additional $7. I had the Mopsy’s Kalyan’s Pork which used GF only soy and other products and a salad. All quite delicious. All toppings seem to be GF as well. Shared oven may make it dicey for celiacs.

Also went at an off time so it wasn’t super busy. The prepared my pizza in a disposable pan & baked it in the brick oven. I did not have any issues. It had a nice thin crust & truly was a delicious pizza! It did cost $5 more to have the gluten free crust. The gluten free crust also only comes in one size.

They make their pizzas in a totally separate area and keep it in its own pan when they cook it, great atmosphere and great food

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered a gluten free south Windsor flatbread and it tested positive for gluten with my Nima sensor. Smelled delicious, I'm sure it's great for people with mild sensitivity. They were very apologetic.

Celiac friendly?

No

Eh. Would not order again: I don’t like the flavor of their crust and always find that there isn’t enough cheese or sauce. It can get to $20 for a personal pizza if you start adding extras. I’d rather just get a frozen Freschetta pizza- or even a frozen American Flatbread pizza for that matter! They are somehow different.

Gluten free pizzas cooked on a tin and served in the tin so you know they were not touching the oven

Not my favorite GF pizza (crust is pretty soft) but reliable, convenient, and satisfies the pizza craving

No nuts in the whole restaurant!

The manager came over and talked to me after I ordered a GF pizza for my son. She explained that they change gloves, prepare the pizza in a separate part of the kitchen and in a separate oven, but cross contamination is still possible due to all the flour in the environment. My son with celiac did not have any reaction and enjoyed his pizza.

The few times I’ve gotten takeout from here the pizza is super soggy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gf pizza crust, prepared in an aluminum pan. Their toppings aren’t amazing though

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We went when it wasn’t super busy, so there wasn’t a lot of flour flying around. The gluten free pizzas are cooked on their own disposable pan in the same oven but they were aware of my diagnosis and were very knowledgeable.

It was a great pizza place with a brewery vibe set in an old mechanic’s garage. I was able to Ofer GF pizza crust and vegan cheese as well as having multiple GF, DF dessert options! They were very careful to put my crust in a pie tin to avoid cross contamination! Highly recommend.

I'm very sensitive and did not get sick. The sausage tasted great! The brownie was average for gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have been to other flatbreads without issue. Last night was the second time I was glutened at this particular location. Never happens at the other ones. For some reason, they always remove the pizza from the aluminum tray they bake it in, and serve it on the ones they serve everyone else’s pizza on. Why? none of the other locations do this. Those trays may be washed, but transferring to other surfaces is not safe in a place like this. I watched them cut and transfer pizza without washing, changing, or soaking a single hand, board, or pizza cutter (looked like the cutters were color coded by vegetarian, vegan, and meaty). Honestly, it wasn’t even busy this time and I still had issues.

Celiac friendly?

No

Dedicated line for ciders on tap! Never had any cross-contamimatoon issues with flat breads, either. Come 2nd and 4th Mondays 7-10 for Rhode Island Pub Sing!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They understand when you tell them allergy when ordering a gluten free pizza. Make sure to mention it is an allergy so they know to put it on a safe aluminum pan to bake. They prepare the gluten free pizzas in a separate area away from the regular ones. When I asked for a box the server first boxed up the regular pizzas and said she would go wash her hands and be back to do mine. Good pizza as well! They are up front on the menu about potential for cross contamination because it is a pizza place and they are trying to cover themselves but they are the safest pizza place I have eaten at both at this location, in Portsmouth and Portland.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing pizza, the best I have ever had. They took serious precautions. My waiter was awesome.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food and I was able to order any pizza I wanted on a small GF crust. I used to love going to Flatbread prior to going gluten free and was so excited to have success with this pizza.

Had a delicious pizza and did not get sick! Menu even had a section for gluten free drinks! There is a risk of cross contamination due to flour being in the air however they prepped my pizza in the back from ingredients straight out of the walk in fridge to minimize that risk.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I am not celiac, just gluten intolerant, but I was impressed with the care that they took with my GF pizza. It was prepared in a separate area, away from the regular pizzas, and was cooked on a disposable aluminum pan. I had the BBQ pizza with pork, pineapple, and goat cheese. It was delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I came here for lunch today and had the BEST gluten free pizza I’ve ever eaten. Normally I hate GF pizza because I don’t like the standard crust that most restaurants use, but after reading a few reviews I decided to give this one a try. I was extremely pleased!! The crust reminded me of regular pizza; it was the perfect texture. The sauce and cheese on the pizza were delicious too. The pizza was also cooked on a separate, disposable aluminum tray to reduce the risk of cross contamination. I would definitely recommend this place and would come back here again for sure!!

I love the pizza here but have reacted at least three times. I finally got it through my head that it isn’t safe to eat.

Celiac friendly?

No

Celiac and wheat intolerant. The pizza was really good. They make it in a "gluten free only" area of the restaurant and even have a stone oven only for gluten free food. Will be back if ever in Providence again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Best staff! They have a separate area that they prepare the gf pizzas with gloves and put them carefully on a tin foil basket before baking. The BEST gf pizza around ❤🍕

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Acted like they do this all the time with GF. Got sick within 10 mins of finishing my part of a GF pizza. So cross contamination likely. Add to that... it didn’t even taste good going down. Dry dry dry ingredients and bland flavor. I wouldn’t return there.

Celiac friendly?

No

Flour flies through the air here! Be careful! Seated near where dough being rolled out watching them toss flour. Dough was undercooked, had to be sent back. Still very doughy in center. Will not return here.

Celiac friendly?

No

I have been diagnosed for 3 years and this is the best pizza crust i have had. The outer crust had a bit of fluff to it and that is the first time i had fluff on the outer edge. Service was great. Totally recommend. Bit more pricey but so worth it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food was great!! I was able to watch them make the pizza from where I was sitting. When they made the dough, they washed their hands and changed their gloves. When they were about to cook it, they put it in foil as to not contaminate it. The staff was also very knowledgeable and knew what to do right away. If you are near Flatbread Company, I highly suggest you eat there.

Celiac friendly?

Had a GF BBQ Pulled Pork Pizza with Pineapple and Goat Cheese . . . DELICIOUS!!!

Staff is great here! Gf pizza is made in a separate pan and prepared in the back. Eat here all the time and have never had any issues! Even their bbq sauce for the pizza is gf.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Always super friendly wait staff! However, do not eat here if you have celiacs... they said it would be safe but I had a severe allergic reaction twice (I was stupid enough to do it again) and was sick for days (I have a wheat allergy on top of celiacs). Now whenever I go there with friends and family I just have a glass of rosé 😂

Celiac friendly?

No

Delicious pizza prepared & served on a disposable pan.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Pizza here is amazing and I've never had any issues! I definitely recommend the white pizza.

Great and safe GF pizza! The waitress took all of my concerns seriously. They use a pizza crust that's in its own aluminum tray, they use completely separate toppings, and cut it in a different area that's above where they cut the gluten-full pizzas. I'm writing this review 24 hours after eating and I'm feeling great!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing ambience and great flatbread. They have 2 different kinds of gluten free crusts - one has honey and the other one is vegan. I had the vegan one. We ordered 2 different pizzas each time and ate their twice. Tested it with Nima and came back gluten free. They know about cross contamination and their gluten free kitchen area is completely separate. However, they have only one wood fired oven but take precautions and place gluten free pizzas on a foil. That takes care of cross contamination. And proven by Nima. Happy to find this place. Also, my wife is vegan and they let us buy vegan cheese from outside (they don’t carry it) for our pizzas. Very accommodating. Do try their house Cabernet. It’s worth the $14/glass. Gluten free crust is $7 extra but so much worth it. Would go back here again if I’m here again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is my favorite pizza. Safe, delicious and fresh! We go here every time we take our daughter to Story Land and it is one of the highlights of our day.

One of many flatbread companies I’ve been to! Gf pizza is cooked and served on its own foil tray

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve been to many flatbread companies in New England and they’re all great! Love the toppings, and the gf pizza is cooked and served on its own foil tray. Been to this location multiple times and have never had an issue. All of the waitresses I’ve had were knowledgeable as well.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is our favorite pizza! We love the variety of organic and local toppings. Gourmet pizza is pricey and add on another $20ish for gf crusts and my family of four never gets out of there for under $100. Even if we do takeaway. Not a weekly thing but good to quell a pizza craving!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent pizza and super safe, they definitely know their stuff!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I used to go to Flatbread when I was taking a summer course at Umass Lowell and was blown away by the quality of their crust - make sure you pay extra for the house made crust! It’s totally worth it. Needless to say, I’m very glad there’s one here in Providence! You can’t beat the atmosphere and the pizza. The drinks are good too!

Great toppings and atmosphere! They cook the the GF pizzas in separate trays to protect against cross contamination. I've eaten here multiple times without a problem. Good cider selection too!
