What Gluten Controlled Means in Our Kitchen


Gluten controlled means that while we cannot guarantee zero gluten cross-contact, we use only gluten-free ingredients for these meals. We have a designated section of the kitchen and color-coded utensils specifically for preparing food for allergies and intolerances. This system helps reduce the risk of gluten contamination.


For example, we have a separate fryer reserved for gluten controlled meals. This means your food might take a little longer to prepare, but your safety is our priority. We want you to enjoy your meal without worry.


Why Some Ingredients Matter More Than You Think


Many people don’t realize that common ingredients like vinegar can contain gluten. Because of this, we avoid using vinegar to polish cutlery or in any part of meal preparation for gluten controlled dishes. This attention to detail helps us keep your food as safe as possible.


Flexibility for Other Allergies/Intolerance and Dietary Needs


While gluten intolerance is a major focus, we also cater to other allergies, intolerances, and dietary requirements. Most of our meals can be tweaked to suit your needs. Whether you need dairy-free, nut-free, or other allergy-friendly options, just let us know. We want everyone to feel included and cared for.


Why We Created a Dedicated Gluten Controlled Menu


We understand how frustrating it can be to ask for a special menu when eating out. That’s why we have a dedicated gluten controlled menu in our menu holders. You can easily find meals that suit your needs without extra hassle. Our goal is to make your visit smooth and enjoyable, with minimal impact on your dining experience.
