Great selection of GF flours and products. Sushi is reliably safe (of course don’t get the faux crab or anything with fried items on it).

There are packaged, gluten-free options that are completely safe, but anything on the salad bar or hot bar is open the cross contamination. I usually do pretty well with the soup and salad but have been glutened on occasion from the hot bar.

Unless your looking for over priced frozen bread,cake or cupcakes - Don’t wast your time. Very disappointing selection.

Pricey, but if you want one of the best gf beers and you don't mind a splurge, try the three varieties of Green's from Belgium!

Went there to pick up something ready made but was surprised by their quality and availability of buffet hot lunches to go I understand buffet can be a questionable thing for those with severe reactions BUT I had a look and nothing with gluten was nearby those GF items. I love whole foods for the fact that they have every single ingredient listed on the label so you know what you're getting. Pretty pricey though ($18 for the smallest box). But tasted good.

Definitely have a ton of grocery store options with an impressive gluten free selection. I’d only go with pre packaged stuff though

It doesn't appear that wholefoods employees know what gluten free means. There are not many options and they kept pointing out vegan options that aren't gluten free. Or they point in a general direction and say something like you might be able to find some pre packaged options...I couldn't.

This is a very large Wholefoods with a lot of hot bar and salad choices. I usually get a gf frozen meal from WF and heat it up in the cafe but I did risk the food bars. Unfortunately I felt a bit queasy later on so not a good choice.

There is a brand of frozen bread here from a brand called ‘Something Sweet Without Wheat’. I got their loaf of harvest bread labeled gluten free, wheat free and dairy free and it tasted really great. It also held up really well during my road trip as I pulled out a couple of slices each day for hotel breakfast buffets.
