I love the idea of a grilled cheese bar and the plethora of options and customizability of everything is super exciting! 🧀🥪

They have gluten-free bread and have a dedicated preparation space for the grilled cheese and patty melts.

You can also note allergies on your order at the kiosk. If you have any questions or concerns, the staff is very friendly and willing to answer any questions you have.

I ended up getting two separate grilled cheeses because I was really hungry. The first was the barbecue chicken grilled cheese and I added bacon to it. I was worried that the jalapenos would be spicy, but they weren't at all! 🥓🌶

The second grilled cheese I got was to go and I got the truffle grilled cheese, it was so creamy and the mushrooms were absolutely delicious. 🍄

On top of both of those I got a lemonade and it's a house-made lemonade that isn't too sweet and isn't too tart 🍋

Last thing to note is that they have a gluten-free sticker that is also tamper safe! The placement isn't really related to tampering, but it is nice to have a flag that says that it is gluten free. As a suggestion: I think it would be smart if they put the sticker on the edge of the box near one of the openings. So that you know that if the package has been opened, the sticker will be torn and not the food has been tampered with. Otherwise, it is a great marker to know that your food is indeed gluten-free!

Mainly, I'm excited to go back and try more combinations out! Definitely recommend that you stop here next time you're in DC!
