They have some gluten free/sensitive items Gluten free bread. I had veggie sandwich on gluten free bread and side potato salad. Very Good! The Manager ensured all safety measures in preparing mine to avoid cross continuation and I was fine!

Hard to screw up a baked potato so I didn’t try anything else. Service was great and conscientious . Best Iced Tea in South Bend.

Nachos say gf on the menu, but when asked they really aren’t, so why are they gf on the menu? Here at 7pm, they close at 8, and they’re out of spuds, which was a bummer when half their menu is spuds. I Ordered a salad because they don’t have any sandwiches on gf bread, which in this day and age, across from a college is strange. Limited gf menu. Only here, because we are traveling through and staying at the hotel next door. The salad was really good though, which is why they got 3 stars. Staff was friendly too.

No GF bread at this location but they have GF soups and salads. All their salad dressings are gluten free too. I highly recommend the chicken chili!

I order the Italian on Gluten Free bread. I also get the potato salad and a pickle. In the 6 years I’ve been eating here I only had one reaction and they were EXTREMELY busy that day. I always tell them It is for a Gluten Allergy before I order and then ask them to let the cooks in the back know. They are very careful.

Hit or miss. I’ve been lucky the past few times, but my first time going I got very sick. I gave them another shot and since then i’ve been good! I get the Savannah copped salad and it’s so good! They have gf bread, salads, and potato’s!

They have an allergy option on their app, also a choice of GF breads with the sandwiches. Giant spuds and salads are also good options.

I have not had any issues here. I know chains are risky, but I’m addicted to the nacho basket and chef salad (no croutons). Have never had symptoms from it.
