Review of Le Pain Quotidien

NOT SAFE for celiacs. When I asked about their gluten safety protocols, the first person I spoke to said “yes everything is clean and safe we avoid cross-contamination and have separate utensils for everything“. Then the manager came out, and said “no, everything IS cross-contaminated. The flour comes in and it gets everywhere. I wouldn’t trust anything.“ I believed her. So I had a coffee. Which was nice. But if you want food, this is not the place to go.
