The salads here are amazing! If you are celiac I wouldn’t recommend getting the sandwiches because they don’t have a separate area or separate utensils but in terms of salads they have “gluten free” mixing bowls and utensils... I’ve never gotten sick from here and I highly recommend the modern ceasar no tortilla.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not safe for celiac. Shared equipment, utensils, and spaces. At least staff was upfront that their menu is not okay for celiac or allergies.

Celiac friendly?

No

Love their gluten free sandwiches, and their overall menu

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Cross contamination is the norm. Not Celiac safe I'm

Used to eat here all the time and be fine. The last 4 times (over the course of several weeks) I ate a gluten free (allergy indicated) Italian Love Sandwich and I had a gluten reaction each time!!! Something has changed and I obviously cannot go back anymore. BEWARE!!!

Amazing gluten free bread. Love this place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Asked employee about CC issues when walked in, was assured they use separate panini presses for GF & wheat products. Placed order, then told by man behind counter, they use same press, wouldn't put anything in it to prevent CC, & showed us the statement on their menu stating they used shared equipment. Needless to say, we left. This is not Gluten Free, you can offer as many GF products as you want, but when you don't try to prevent CC, it's NOT Gluten Free.

Celiac friendly?

No

Yum! Their gluten free bread is pretty good. Turkey club with avocado!! They have an allergy button that they push and the workers lay down a piece of paper and change their gloves to accommodate you. They usually have a gluten free soup too.

I wanted to try this place but was immediately informed that they don't take precautions to prevent cross-contamination.

Celiac friendly?

No

I got the gluten free tuna melt with no red onions. The bread was so tasty, with a sweet nutty flavor, and the veggies were fresh and colorful. The tuna melt was made with veganaise, so I didn't have to worry about my food, it was perfect. :)

Probably my favorite sandwich place ever! All their food is from local farms. Even their beer, soda and chips are fun brands that you don't see everywhere. Their sandwiches are unique and delicious and their gluten free bread is pretty good. Several gluten free sandwich items that are clearly marked and they're sensitive to allergies.

They have great gf bread and my favorite salad is the farm salad with tons of vegetables and a great dressing! Yum

My favorite gf sandwiches! Mmm the gf bread they use is from a local bakery :)

I actually loved the food but although they have a dedicated toaster for the gluten-free bread, they did not know about having a separate station for the sandwiches; my concern is with cc with the sauces and knives. However, after talking to the manager, they seemed open to improving. I'll follow up!

Went here for lunch, great option as everything is marked as gluten free or can be made gluten free. They noted it all down on my order and had no issues or reaction!
