We stopped at George's while passing through Raglan and loved our experience. They have a separate fryer and I had delicious fried chicken. After asking about their protocol for gluten free pizza I opted not to eat it. They do use a separate plate when they put it in the oven so it doesn't touch anything but they have an assembly line with the toppings so there is a risk. They offered to make mine first since we got there right when they opened so all the toppings were fresh and not contaminated but I opted for the fried chicken which was delicious and highly recommended.
