Amazing and delicious. This is a destination sandwich spot for me because I only come up here for dr appts. It's too far away to go to often and there are none closer

The staff definitely told the kitchen I HAD to be G free, and they complied . It wasn't buzy at the time, so I could tell they were being very careful .

Update-tried the new GF bread club sandwich twice. Got sick both times. Second time I got no condiments on it and not toasted. Can't handle CC. I can only eat the baked potato or a pick two with plain salad and baked potato. I do not feel they are careful in the kitchen at this location. I have been glutened several times but it's a family favorite. Plain potato with butter and sour cream has never hurt me though. If I go pre lunch rush, I risk the club potato and have been fine.

So glad they have added gf bread to menu so that I can now have sandwiches!

I emailed management to ask if it’d be safe for a Celiac. In sum, they said “no.” I’d suggest taking their advice.

This is what the note said in full:

“Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and concerns with us. To have information about our ingredients and nutrition facts, please go to the nutrition tab on our website. However, if you have allergies, we recommend not eating our product due to cross-contamination. If you still want to get more information you can contact the store management directly to inquiry. We value your business and would love the chance to make your next visit a great one!”

They have a good online menu that identifies allergens - which is helpful. I didn't ask about cross contamination/ shared fryers as I order salads and soups. The veggies chili is delicious. Also got a plain potato (which was huge). I was surprised there were so many gf options for a deli.

The gluten free bread is very okay here - it crumbles pretty easily but is, at least, soft and normal sized. Not the best sandwich I’ve had but not the worst either. I’m glad they have options here.

Always accommodating for GF requests. Kitchen uses protocol for cross contamination prevention.

They had a small separate menu for gluten free options and were very kind and understanding when discussing my disease!
