Salt & Straw

Staff seemed to lack confidence in what was GF and cross contamination risk, but they were nice and got the manager. I felt comfortable because I’ve eaten at numerous locations without an issue.

Update: finally decided to test with my Nima sensor and two of the three flavors (I bought pints) tested positive for gluten.

They asked every customer whether they have allergies. My friend has nut allergies and I have celiac, so they immediately went to their fridge and opened new pint containers for us to sample so there wouldn’t be any contamination. Both of us were fine after and we really appreciated the extra steps to keep us safe despite the huge line out the door!!Mint chocolate chip (this one is vegan) is my favorite flavor but the matcha raspberry get special mention too. Enjoy your ice cream everyone!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was well informed and accommodating. I chose my ice cream flavor, they confirmed it was GF, and since I told them I have celiac they opened a new pint and brought out a new scoop to prevent cross contamination. They also informed me that machines are washed between flavors during production.

Watch out for cross contamination as the scoopers are left in the same water for all ice creams.

I told them I had a gluten allergy so they used a fresh scooper and scooped out of a fresh pint for me.

Wow! What a great experience! They had an employee that focused exclusively on me. He opened several fresh pints for sampling, got a clean scooper for my final selection, and ultimately was obviously very familiar and sensitive about possible cross contamination. Plus, excellent ice cream! I will definitely return!!
