They have gluten free options marked on the menu, and seem to take care in preparation. But my food has been fresher from other locations. My roasted chicken was dry and the end pieces of the sides were hard. Like marble. Maybe it was just an off night. My rosemary sweet potatoes were stone cold, too. Everyone else at my table was happy with their food.

Got sick. I asked the cashier to note a gluten allergy but when I got my order it didn’t say anything on the receipt. I found a piece of bread in the tomato bisque that I ordered only after I had eaten about half of it. I don’t trust that they taken precaution in the kitchen even though they claim to be good with allergies. As other reviews mentioned, the food was not that great in flavor either.

Mediocre food. It was gluten free, but not good just okay. It tastes worse than Panera. I didn’t get sick from it.

I work for Modern Market. We are super gluten free friendly and can even prepare food with an eye to avoiding cross contamination. I have worked here for 3 years, eat the food very regularly and have never had a reaction. I work in guest relations, give me a call with questions!

Delicious and easy to manage gluten free! I got a bowl after reading other reviews since cc is an issue for me, but everything is very well labeled for GF, DF and nut free. The food is delicious. Almost too many options 👀😋

Loved this spot so much we ate there daily this week while staying a few blocks away. Almost everything is or can be made gf. So much better than chains. Loved the thai coconut salad (the 1/2 portion was really big). I also enjoyed the mango chicken bowl which was spicy- they gave me sour cream when I requested it which made it perfect! We got to go once and ate there twice- all of which was smooth and delicious! They also have gf baked goodies which are all gf so we felt good about cross contamination risks.

Delicious food, a lot of options and staff knowledgeable. I saw some reviews to avoid pizza and subs, I did that and ate some of the bowls and was fine. Super good place!

A lot of reviews are saying it isn’t safe if you get pizza or sandwiches. I got the salmon curry bowl and explicitly told them it was a gluten allergy. It was yummy, fast, and I didn’t get sick. Order smart, communicate, and you should be fine!

I think the salads are probably safe, but I ate a gf pizza here yesterday and it made me really sick. Definitely cross-contaminated, so if you're going to eat here, avoid the pizza.

Delicious sandwiches on gluten-free bread that tastes like normal bread!

Modmarket is decidedly not celiac friendly, as the cross-contamination is sky-high. I sent back/refused to eat a sandwich that the guy handled, without gloves, after he prepared a regular sandwich.

Getting take out food, especially breakfast food, is hard for celiacs. This place is reliable and fast.

Menu is well labeled. The person taking my order did not indicate the pizza should have been GF. I had eaten here before and knew enough to know it looked different. When I asked, the guy said it wasn't and remade it. He let me give the non-GF pizza to my friend.

Loved this place. I let them know I have celiac. They suggested the safest options. I ate without incident and am very grateful for their help. I highly recommend to fellow celiacs.

I would give this place no stars if I could. Not celiac friendly. I even tried to ask for my money back after being sick for 4 days after eating there and was denied that. Terrible management/customer service.

Great healthy GF food. Highly recommend. Busy and loud. The receipt is particularly great as it gives nutritional break down

This a great place. Most things on the menu are gluten free. The menu is clearly marked. All naturally sourced ingredients. A true gem.. I am the only one in my family who is admittedly allergic to gluten, and we all could eat here and they loved it as well. If you need a delicious gluten free meal in downtown Denver this is the place.

Menu is marked with gf designations where appropriate. I had the flank steak plate with rosemary mashed potatoes and balsamic glazed carrots. It was one of my favorite meals of this trip, reasonably priced and I had no reaction. (Celiac disease)

Our celiac son's gluten free meal tested positive for guten with our Elisa gluten test kit. The rest of our meals were very good. Manager of course refunded his meal and did feel very bad. I think too many hands moving around in kitchen area. His garlic mash potatoes had bit of my other son's sweet mash potato on the edge-obvious cross contamination. Since test takes about 10-15 minutes, celiac son unable to eat and left hungry and very sad. Learned our lesson, rest of our trip we tested his meal first before ordering any other meals.

Had a chicken sandwich on the gluten free wrap and it was delicious! Just visiting the area but would go back again for sure!

Lots of gf options. The cashier was very helpful and looked up the ingredient list for items I had questions about. I got the steak plate with mashed sweet potatoes, and the portions were huge! Definitely felt like I got my money's worth. My non-gf husband really liked his pizza too. Highly recommend as a good fast casual option.

This is seriously one of my new favorite places. The food is amazing and very filling and they have a wide selection of gluten free dishes. I am not sure if they are celiac friendly, as I only have a gluten sensitivity, but I am positive they would accommodate.

Love this place!! Great options! Pizza but no sandwiches plus salads and plates. Surprisingly good food - a lunch place with better than dinner food! Had pizza one day - very thin crisp crust and fresh flavorful toppings. Much better than the average GF pizza. Salad the other day I went and it had caramelized onions and potatoes on it! Loved it! One of the best salads I've ever had! Certainly seemed to take GF seriously. Have it marked right on the menu and put allergy on my slip! I didn't get sick either time (I'm celiac but not super sensitive). Highly recommend - definitely one of my new favorite spots!!

Yum! So many options and everything that's gluten free is clearly marked on the menu. They have gfree wraps, pizza, soups, salads and breakfast foods.

Really flavorful and delicious fast-casual food! Their focus is on fresh, unprocessed ingredients. Half portions of brick oven pizzas (gf) and salads can be ordered for individual portion. Sandwiches can be made on gluten free bread, too. Most items on the menu are gf or can be made gf. They also serve breakfast (I did not have). Nutritional details come printed on your receipt. I love this place!

Loved this stop for a quick counter service meal. We liked it so much we returned for a second meal. We had bowls and there were non GF diners with us who also very much enjoyed their food. Wish this was an east coast chain.
