Anywhere there is gluten pizza dough, wheat flour, and a buffet-style (open topping containers, etc) method of serving customers, it is not truly gluten-free friendly.

Even though they offer gluten-free pizza, there is a HEAVY amount of cross-contamination that takes place. Gloves aren’t changed, pizza pans aren’t cleaned between uses, flour contaminates all open containers of toppings, salads, etc.

Good tasting food, but I’ve had symptoms with both pizzas and salads at this establishment.

I heard it was safe for me to eat here. I had hungry kids and I didn't eat lunch since I couldn't have that either because of gluten. Ordered a gf pizza. They would not, refused, to put my pizza on a separate tray to cook it. So threw it into the oven with all of the other gluten pizzas. Mod pizza is a huge NO!

Wonderful pizza, lots of toppings to choose from and can have up to 30. Best gluten-free crust I’ve tasted in a pizza, Bonus is that the meat is nitrate and nitrite free so no worries. Just be willing to wait five or 10 minutes for the pizza to come out of the oven but it is totally worth it.

Most important note if you want the gluten-free crust, know that it’s there because it says it on the website and you have to ask specifically for it

Updated review: The same thing that happened to Cheryl happened to me the first time. I decided to give it another try. I explained that I’d tried them before and needed more assurance the pizza would be safe. I went early for lunch. I asked how they cleaned the metal trays they bake their pizza on. He said one stack of pans had just been washed (not sure how). I ordered a GF cauliflower crust pizza (see photo) and didn’t have any symptoms. I would try it again, but only if I was there very early, to avoid items becoming contaminated.

First review: I ate here once and was sick afterwards. Yes, the pizza tasted very good. Yes, they have gluten free crusts that come wrapped, but they put that gluten free crust on a tray that they grab off a stack of trays used for wheat pizza. There are no separate trays for gluten free. I would not recommend it if you have celiac disease.

The guy took a used pizza pan, shook it to remove glutinous crust, placed the gluten free pizza dough on the pan, swabbed pizza sauce on it with the same ladle he had used to swab a glutinous pizza dough using sauce that was contaminated with gluten. I reacted to it. So, don’t eat there if you cannot handle contaminated food.

Best GF pizza I've had. They use a new cutter on each pizza

By far the cheapest gf pizza you can find in Bellingham, possibly the Pacific NW. For a two topping gluten free pizza, you're looking at about $11 WITH TAX. Maybe not the greatest flavors, but they are fast, good-sized, and hit the spot. They don't seem to charge if you ask for extra red sauce either. The special lemonades are also great. You really can't go wrong at MP if you're looking for some gluten free food in Barkley Village. Note: They mention on their menu that they can't guarantee totally free cross-contamination. I'm gluten free for a chronic disease, and I think I've done ok here. Your mileage may vary, so I've marked this as not celiac friendly.

Celiac friendly?

No

A celiac nightmare. Tried once and got very sick. There are no precautions in place to prevent cross contamination. I recommend avoiding at all costs.

After traveling for 12 hours, I needed a quick yet safe place close to my hotel to eat. I avoided pizza since they only have 1 oven and I had concerns about cross contamination. They have a few different salad options and all the dressings were gluten free. I was easily able to add on extra protein. Vegan cheese options also available. I know as celiac that it's tiring to always need to eat the salad option, but it worked for me today.

Other Characteristics

• Good for dairy-free

This location will not take the proper precautions for a celiac. They refused to cook my pizza on a piece of foil, which other locations accommodate without question. Absolutely do not recommend for someone with celiac or a high sensitivity.

While the staff were friendly, they claim their district manager does not allow them to cook their pizza on foil. Absolutely do not recommend for someone with celiac or a high sensitivity.

They have decent crust and unlimited toppings but make sure to ask for special utensils and tray, there is cross contamination so I had to be stern to ask for clean utensils, the other reno location was more precautious!
