Had an amazing bacon egg and cheese on a GF bagel! Did not get sick
Went to Red Hook yesterday and asked about celiac-safe options, not expecting to be able to eat. I was so surprised when they knew exactly what I was talking about and told me that they would clean their area and toast my bread in a clean pan! I was able to get pretty much anything on the menu, even the potato salad that comes with the sandwiches! They also let me know that they are getting a dedicated toaster soon!!!
Oh and, no reaction later!
This place is very sloppy about cross contamination, be warned. I mentioned that I have celiac and that the gf bread needed to be prepped and toasted separately. The person working at the register seemed uninterested in what I was saying, even a little dismissive. Shortly after eating my sandwich I became pretty ill.
This place is fantastic. Gf bread for sandwiches tastes amazing. Big selection and really accommodating to make most things GF. Love it here. Great smoothies as well
Cross contamination is bad. Same toaster for all bagels. Small kitchen. Why bother offering GF at all?
Cute place. Friendly people. They have some wrapped gluten-free baked goods and breads from Taffets gluten-free bakery, but don't have the capacity to avoid cross-contact. They only have two pans, so their eggs are made in the same pans that they grill their sandwiches in. No ability to safely toast the gluten-free bagels.
cute little coffee, fresh sandwiches on taffets bakery multi-grain loafs
