Happy Joe's

Not safe for cross contamination reasons but if you don't have an allergy it doesn't taste bad!

Excellent gluten free pizza!

Order GF pizza from here a lot. It's awesome to be able to enjoy their taco pizza!!

Celiac friendly?

No

My stomach ends up so upset anytime I have the GF still. I have a friend who use to work there and says they typically don’t wipe down anything before preparing the GF crust.

Ordered a gluten free taco pizza & within 2 hours broke out in celiac rash/DH & was sick for over a week. Avoid! A cross contamination nightmare!

Celiac friendly?

No

They have gluten free pizza but the last time I ate here I reacted to it. Guessing cross contamination.

We used to get Happy Joes GF pizza in Coralville, Ia with rarely an issue of cross contamination. In the past few months there has been a change in management or ownership according to delivery team. Since that time, 2 of 3 pizzas have resulted in symptoms of exposure. Unfortunately the Coralville HJ is no longer an option for pizza for us.

I know many who love their gf pizza. I’m just not a fan. But glad that they offer this option to our community.

The gluten free pizza is great, but not all of the workers are trained to not cross-contaminate it.

Good pizza. Taco is my fav and didn't get sick.

Gramma’s serves Happy Joe’s gluten-free pizza crust and toppings. Decent option for gluten-free food if you’re passing through the World’s Largest Truck-stop along I-80

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Happy Joe's offers all of their pizzas on a small gluten-free crust. Happy Joe's takes extra precautions to ensure the pizza does not come in contact with gluten. I have had Happy Joe's meat-lovers pizza numerous times with no issues. Highly recommend! Fairly inexpensive pizza too.

The pizza was delicious. I only gave it four stars because the size of the pizzas were even smaller than pizza ranch but for the same or more price. However, it was nice being able to enjoy their signature taco pizza!

Talked with the manager when we arrived. They were aware of cross contamination concerns and used separate toppings and sauce, as well as clean utensils and a clean prep area. Our daughter loved the gluten free crust. For ice cream, the server used a clean scoop on request and even let us see the ingredient label on the ice cream to ensure we felt comfortable. They acknowledge that there is gluten in the kitchen but seemed to take all steps to mitigate cross contamination. We had a very positive experience.

Used the same pizza cutter to cut my gluten-free pizza (was a glutened pizza cutter).

Celiac friendly?

Happy Joe's has gluten free pizza and toppings. I love the meat and taco pizzas. Toppings are gluten free and so is the Jogurt. I have Celiac Disease and I done at Happy Joe’s frequently.

The staff was helpful and I didn’t get sick.. cruet was better at the Happy Joe’s in Davenport where jungle bungle is..*pics attached(pizza and taco salad)*

I had a 1 topping GF pizza .. I was fine afterwards and the pizza tasted almost regular lol !!! Also I’m intolerant.

Meat,crust,spices are all not gluten free in most. Ask if it also a dedicated gluten free facility.

Celiac friendly?

No

Udi's crust, small size only. Could eat a salad. Given the size of the town, I was happy. Would guess that cross sensitivity might be a problem, but my gluten sensitive spouse had no issues.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

the pizza is excellent here, and I've never had a problem. I always get the taco joe, though I love that their pepperoni is a bit spicy as well! compared to the Grand Forks location, they make them here so much better. I'm guessing they have some GF crusts unthawed, instead of sending them in frozen. I was eating these weekly for a while, once I tried it...

Family member got sick both times, avoid at all costs, go across the street to the Mexican restaurant

Loved this place before knowing about my gluten allergy, pizza tastes and has consistency similar to their regular pizzas. Not the best gluten free pizza but good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

had a gluten-free pizza, taste pretty good

The staff of this restaurant is very friendly and they were really pleasant and patient about answering or questions about how they prepared the pizza. They have gluten free crusts, prepare the pizzas on a separate clean sheet of paper, change out the brushes for the sauce, and use a clean cutter. The pizza was very good and tasted like the standard Happy Joes's pizza. What more could we ask for?

great to see these options here. I've eaten here several times with no reaction

Celiac friendly?

Yes

very attentive to my daughter who has celiac. we have eaten here quite a few times and have had no issues. great staff.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not cheep but was close to my pre celiac memory of the pizza. I called first and they were able to tell me their process with no hesitation.

Pizza was just okay. Gf crust tasted like cardboard. Was probably udi's. Mushrooms are from a can. Husband loved the wheat crust though. Better for those who can eat gluten!

wonderful GF pizza and very affordable!

Celiac friendly?

No

If you have celiac diease Avoid. I've never been so sick before. No precautions taken. Cooks uses everything for same containers. Cross contamination nightmare.

Celiac friendly?

No

Only gave 1 star because I could do less. Doesn't even deserve that. they use same pans they cook there non gluten-free pizzas on. No separate kitchen space. They use no precautions AVOID

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good pizza, never been sick. I only gave 4 stars because of the cost and their gluten free crust is always undercooked.

We visit Dubuque every other year, and going to Happy Joe's is a must!! I loved them before I went GF, so I was a little worried about their Gf crust. I have to say, the GF taco pizza tastes the same as the non-GF pizza! Yum! I can't wait to go back!

Celiac friendly?

No

We called and asked a bunch of questions and it sounded like we might be able to eat there, but we found out they do not switch utensils and use the same ladle and sauce to put on every pizza gluten free or not. Due to cross contamination issues we were unable to eat there

Celiac friendly?

No

Was glutened twice by this restaurant after telling them multiple times about my celiac.

Celiac friendly?

No

The sauce isn't gluten free, but the crust is!! How ridiculous!

GF taco pizza!

Celiac friendly?

No

I ordered their gluten free pizza, and verified that it was completely gluten free. Well after eating, I started to feel ill and had been glutened by their pizza. I later called and filed a complaint, they seemed to not really care that they messed up. All they offered was a 15% coupon on my next purchase, which I will never eat there again due to their non-caring attitude.

Celiac friendly?

No

gluten free crust, however it is very pricey!! It cost $41 for the two of us to eat and we got waters!

Best gluten free pizza crust I have ever had!

Any pizza you want on gluten free 9" crust. Just be careful of the toppings. And I saw the guy change gloves before handling my crust. All the toppings came from communal bins though so if you're really sensitive be careful.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The gf taco pizza is pretty tasty. First time trying them and it was better than Godfathers gluten free crust.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten-free crust tasted great, similar in taste and texture to the regular crust. The crust is made in a GF facility but Happy Joe's is very up front that they cannot guarantee cross-contamination. there's even a notice taped to the box. $10.99 for a small, only size they offer gluten-free.

Their regular pizza is awesome but now that I am gluten intolerant I've been glutened each time I had their pizza. Won't chance it again.

gluten free crust has a very good taste

My favorite place to eat gluten free pizza.

pizza was okay, decent. super dirty there. trash everywhere.

Gross pizza, do not eat here.

Great pizza, crust is amazing, didn't get sick

Great crust, if you have more extreme intolerance I suggest to tell them to use a new sauce brush, but it is excellent!!

This is the best gf pizza out there! Def recommend!

Don't expect good gluten free quality if they are busy
