Lamppost Pizza

My daughter and I have celiac disease. While I realize there is the risk of an accidental glutening anytime we eat at a restaurant that is not gluten-free, I think it's worth the risk if I'm comfortable with how the location handles cross contamination. So, I always politely ask my questions about prep and ingredients and then tip well. When I called, the person I spoke with (sounded like the owner) was very resistant to answering my questions. He was defensive, said I shouldn't eat his pizza since I was "more worried than most". I actually have no problem w a restaurant telling me their location is not celiac-safe; it shows concern for the health of their customers. In this case, the sad part was the little I got out of him sounded safe, but he would not answer all the questions. My non-celiac son and husband are going for a little league party, my daughter and I will have girl time elsewhere.

Celiac friendly?

No

Menu is not listed, you just have to ask or it comes up with crust substitutes when you order online. Lampost has GF crust up to a large a large size. A large 3 topping pizza came out to $30, I feel like it’s unheard of to find a large GF pizza for that price. For the great price and quality/taste of crust I would definitely go again. For quality/taste alone I’d give it maybe a 3.5/4 it’s pretty basic but good.

They do have gluten free pizza, cooked on a separate screen, but only one size, very expensive ($21!), But very good!

They are a very popular pizza chain. My family loves them. Not at all safe for someone with Celiac.

No

I ordered a GF vegetarian pizza here last week and 2 hours later my chest got super tight, my heart was beating out of my chest, and it lasted for 2 hours. So, either the crust was NOT gluten free, or it was cross contaminated.
