Marco's Pizza

I think they're new to the gluten free game as their website didn't even show it. I called and they offer a gluten free medium crust. Was delicious and I haven't had any type of reaction. They aren't a dedicated gluten free facility though so they put a warning sticker on the box. They do take precautions as best they can not to cross contaminate but they just don't guarantee it.

Anyway, delicious pizza and I haven't had any type of reaction. They deliver as well. I will be back.

Marco’s Pizza offers Gluten-Free crust with a dedicated cooking section for GF. I have Celiac’s and have never had a reaction to any of the Memphis, TN Marco’s locations. We love this place and I recommend to everyone!

The pizza is delicious but it's not safe for celiac. They use a different ladle but they use the same sauce that's already been contaminated.

Celiac friendly?

No

Of all the chain gluten free pizza from chains out there this is without a doubt the best . Also , all other chains only make gf pizza small size . Marcos has a medium which was more than enough for 2 of us . So not only does it taste the best , it’s the cheapest.

I was very impressed with this store. I called them to have them walk me through their procedure with their gluten friendly (gluten free) pizza and they had all of the right steps EXCEPT they cut all pizzas on the same wooden board at the end. We told them just to skip cutting the pizza and put it straight from the over in to the box. It was so good too and my celiac daughter had zero problems with it. We will def go there again and will take the same precautions to call, have them walk me through it and skip the cutting station. Oh and the gluten free crust is only in medium size.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Same oven but it’s one of those conveyor ovens, has its own prep area, own gluten free only trays. Eaten here 15-20 times with a family of celiacs and never had an issue. You can order online, customize a medium and the crust option is there.

This place has the best gluten-free pizza! I've eaten her several times and never been sick!

They offer all their pizzas with a ‘Gluten Friendly’ crust - Medium size only. They disclaim totally Gluten-free with a warning label on the box that it’s prepared in a shared environment. That said I was VERY impressed and I had no effects. This will be my go-to for pizza. I love the different combinations on the menu plus you can build your own. Awesome pizza sauce! On-line ordering: choose Medium and you will see the Gluten Friendly option. They also have salads.

They have a tub filled with GF baking utensils that are supposed to be used only for the GF crusts. However, I’m not sure about their cleaning methods.

They have a medium gluten free pizza and most toppings are gf.

Need to remove this pizza place. It’s not gf

They have gluten free pizza dough in medium size. Such good pizza. However this location consistently runs out of it and substitutes with regular dough, without saying a word. If you order, make sure to call and make it clear it has to be gluten free and have them check that they have it.

The pizza is only gluten friendly, not gluten free. Also the pizza was so hard to chew, I couldn’t eat enough to get full before my jaw tired out.

Celiac friendly?

No

I haven’t ever had a problem with their gluten free pizza as a celiac.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff member had a mom that was celiac so he was very knowledgeable. Glove change. Not in a celiac safe space but I did not have a reaction.

Very friendly staff and close to the bars for easy run pick up if you are on Turner Street or night out it'll be only 8 minutes away

They don’t even wear gloves let alone change them. Flour was everywhere! I refused my pizza and left. Nasty place

I don't know what made me order from this place considering there is a closer pizza restaurant but I thought I'd give it a shot. They do not have a dedicated kitchen and I understand the risks. That being said, this is AMAZING!!!

Good pizza and they don't charge extra! Great customer service.

I have celiac and have eaten here at least 3 times in the last couple of months (both carry out and delivery) and have never gotten sick. The pizza is delicious and it’s always cooked well and not burned, like some GF pizza places tend to do. I’m also pretty sensitive to cross contamination, and I have never been sick from this Marco’s location. I will definitely continue to eat here!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve eaten here numerous times and have never gotten sick. The staff takes their GF pizza very seriously! (And it’s yummy!)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Their gluten free crust is pretty darn good. Even though there isn’t a dedicated gluten free space, the staff tries very hard to avoid cross-contamination. They have separate gf sauce scoops, pizza screens, and pizza cutters. They put the gluten-free crust directly on the pizza screen so it never touches the counter. But because they have regular pizza, they can’t say there’s no chance of cross-contamination. They avoid it very well usually.

My daughter was starving so we got a pizza. The staff followed our instructions and we didn’t get sick. I am a celiac and have 2 children that have several food intolerances and allergies. I don’t know that all workers are so willing to be so careful

dedicated oven but pizza was greasy

They carry a gluten free crust (which is thin and delicious) but there is possibility of cross contamination. I didn’t get sick, but I’m not celiac.

Just called, they said they keep have glten free dough, but they prepare it on the same counter as the regular dough and cook it in the same oven.

Celiac friendly?

No

I have been getting gf pizza from this location for several years. They consistently deliver a great pizza and take the gf precautions seriously. I have consumed a LOT of bad to mediocre pizza since my diagnosis, so I am thrilled to find a place I can count on for delicious and yummy pizza.

One caveat, since Marco's is a chain/franchise, I would definitely go through the litany of questions (dedicated utensils, cooking mat, etc) at each location.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing GF pizza crust! Must order a medium to be able to select GF!! I have ordered here many times and not been sick.

As far as gluten reaction, there was none which is great! The pizza taste was, meh. Mediocre at best. I got a deluxe style. There was waaaaay to much sauce and the toppings were just ok. Texture of the crust wasn’t bad though. It was nice to be able to order from my couch n have the pizza delivered but won’t make it a regular stop. But it’ll do in a pinch.

3 stars because the staff was honest and friendly, but she flat out said the gluten free crust is not safe for celiac due to high cross contamination. We did not order. I’m thankful to her for being upfront.

Celiac friendly?

No

Great tasting GF pizza. We took for takeaway and was great and no reaction by Celiac with high sensitivity. Recommended!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We get Marcos frequently and have never had a problem with cross contamination. It’s delicious !

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free pizza is available. The owner stated that they use dedicated pans, utensils and cutters. The pizza was good and I didn’t have a negative reaction to eating it. :)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered a medium meatlovers and took it home just in case I got sick from it...pizza tasted great, with a crispy crust, and no reaction at all...I was amazed!!!

Worst experience ever tonight! I have been ordering gluten free pizza here forever. Today when I picked up my pizza it did not look right. I asked if a new one could be made, because my daughter can get extremely sick. After I gave it back to the sales associate not less than two min later the manager yelled gluten free person. I went up to the counter. He threw the pizza back on the counter and said it is gluten free and walked away. Did not care about gluten free precautions at all.

Celiac friendly?

No

This place has its own dedicated gluten free area with dedicated gluten free utensils. My school was the first to order them. The store manager showed our the director the new equipment.

my daughters is not celiac but she has never had an issue with any contamination from this place. its fast and great prices

They have gluten free pizza crust. They were great and added extra sauce and cheese for us. I am thankful to have another option for pizza. My husband got a thick crust "meat lovers" type pizza and he said it was also delicious. They were very fast. We called it in and they had it ready for us when we got there 10 minutes later.

We have ordered gf pizza from here several times and my Celiac daughter has never gotten sick.

Only thing gf is the crust. Talking to the girl at the counter she said they are gluten friendly, cheese is not gf and the pizza is made in the same kitchen with same ingredients as non gf pizzas.

Celiac friendly?

No

They were fantastic! So careful to follow gluten free protocol. The pizza was delicious my daughter said best GF pizza ever. Liked that is is made I medium so enough for 2! Nima reared and was gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Offer GF crust, separate utensils used(cooking sheet/pizza cutter) but still other non GF items prepared in the kitchen. They give the warning of "this is not a dedicated kitchen, not safe for Celiac", explained CC to the person taking our order (Brandon). He said he would use separate toppings not already on the line so that there would not be CC. Felt fine afterwards. Giving 5 stars because he made the GF one first and used toppings not already on the line. Brandon was also very friendly and accommodating!!

Their pizza is amazing however they cook the gluten free in the same cooker as the regular pizzas.

The owner has knowledge of celiac and trains staff on safe practices. This is my go to place for gf pizza. I'm a celiac and so is my son.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This was the first time we tried a take out pizza with my son since he was diagnosed last year. They took precautions to get new sauce out and different utensils. He had no reaction. They said to always talk to manager when ordering.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gf crust! I'm Celiac and extremely sensitive, but have eaten here twice and had no reaction. This is my new go to for gf pizza!

Lots of options! Very good!!!!!

Awesome gluten free pizza, very friendly staff who like to help you find great deals.

OMG I LOVE THIS PLACE *droool* the pizza is amazing, the pizza dough is awesome AND for those of you like me who hate and DESPISE pizza sauce, they have GF white sauce. Eat it, eat it now.

Our favorite place for GF pizza around! Been here many times. Even search them out when we travel because we've always had great experiences here.

The staff was knowledgeable when I called and asked. They offer a medium size pizza only with any toppings.

Their GF crust pizza was delicious.
