I went gluten free about six years ago and one of the food items that always falls short is gluten free rolls for subs. That was until I found out Jersey Mike's had gluten free subs. I went to this location based on a friend's recommendation and wow! Their gluten free roll is awesome. I got the chipotle chicken, which was amazing. It is very filling so be careful ordering a full instead of a half.
Affordable bites served with fresh ingredients amidst a welcoming ambiance that’s tough to match.

As someone with celiac disease, I appreciate the precautions they take to ensure the lowest possibility of cross contamination and still make me a delicious gluten free cheese steak sub 😋 thanks for caring and thanks for the meal!

I went to Noodle and Company today and they didn't have zucchini noodles and I have a gluten allergy. The employees were super helpful with getting gluten free pasta and making sure it was safe for me. They were very friendly and I had a wonderful experience with yummy food!
A popular spot known for great service, but recent changes to their bread recipe have stirred up some frustration among regulars.

I like Chick-fil-A but I am annoyed that they added sesame to their bread, now my brother can only eat there if we get him a chicken sandwich with a gluten free bun, meaning he has to piece together the whole sandwich himself if we get it to go. I am angry about how they responded to the new allergen law concerning sesame, but otherwise I think that Chick-fil-A is a great place.
Enjoy quick, delicious pies made fast, with a vibrant atmosphere and attentive vibe, perfect for a relaxed lunch or takeout.

My favorite place to eat. I recently had to switch to a gluten-free diet due to food allergies and health concerns. Jersey Mike's is always very attentive to my needs and ensures that my sub is gluten-free and made fresh. It's a great place to enjoy a meal.

I had an issue after asking for a gluten free bun for my sandwich. I spoke with Ms. Flor and she apologized and immediately set me up to receive a new order at my convenience. I was even able to go to the drive thru to pick up the order.
Known for great vibes and a loyal following, this spot has a complex history but remains a favorite for its consistent quality.

Aside from their questionable anti-LGBTQ history, I have nothing bad to say about all their locations. Always good food, even my Celiac wife can have their fries and grilled nuggets. I've also heard from friends about more openly gay and bi employees. As long as they can keep it up I'll keep going.
Great they have Gluten Free rolls for sandwiches. They take precautions to avoid cross contamination. They also had Udis GF Snickerdoodles. Soft and chewy! I wish you had the option to toast the rolls.

First time here and the Breakfast All Day Burger was amazing, plus they have gluten free buns which are absolutely amazing. All the staff is friendly and helpful and Camilla was great at checking in on us after we started eating. Highly recommend coming here!
Me and my mother went yesterday evening and made sure to mention an allergy to gluten. Key note is "ALLERGY" so it's not just a preference. It was fine as first because they seemed to be playing it safe until my mother was half way through her food and picked up a regular, gluten, noodle out of her Mac n cheese. I walked up to the front of the building and showed the employee working and she acted like she didn't care. She said "I'm sorry" and shrugged her shoulders. I held my mothers hair the entire night while she was sick because of the insensitive to her allergy.
I have been wanting to try Elevation Burger for a long time now. I ordered a Fiery Burger, onion rings, and a bottled drink. Honestly, I was not impressed. The onion rings weren’t fully coated so I could see large holes revealing the onion underneath. The burger was decent but not as flavorful as I am use to. My main problem is that I dont think this meal I have described was worth $18+ on my money. Unfortunately, I will not be visiting again.
Nice gluten-free food spot though for those willing to pay those prices.
Expect a warm atmosphere where staff go above and beyond to ensure everyone feels comfortable and cared for.

Chance who works there was so kind to my mom and me. I have gluten allergies and he was very helpful and polite. He was especially kind and solicitous to my mom who has mobility and dementia issues. Love it!

I seek out Noodles and Company when I travel, as there are none 8n upstate NY.
This was delicious and quick and the restaurant was clean and tidy.
The pad thai was the best I've had at Noodles and Co. Perfect amount of sauce, the egg was fluffy and plentiful and the chicken pieces were perfect - not dry at all, and adding to the entree. My son has never had pad thai like this, and he said, these eggs are sooo good! Why don't more pasta dishes have then, lol. They were super fresh and fluffy.
My son and I even shared an entree and we were both full. It was surprisingly affordable, considering it's location not too far from Baltimore and D.C. and their sometimes exorbitant prices.
We got Sweet Frog yogurt in the plaza for dessert. But i know the rice krispie treats and N&C are great! Sweet, but not cloying and a great end to their meals.
I appreciate this fast casual chain because it's easy to get any needed combination of gluten-free, dairy-free or vegetarian meal. I always feel great after eating it - no sour or greasy stomach or unhappy belly the next day, unlike other fast food restaurants commonly convenient when traveling. I highly recommend Noodles & company anywhere, and this location was so thoughtful, coming to offer me an extra plate when they thought we could use it and keeping things clean after other diners left. I have to add, it was clearly a very busy day for them, but the crew worked together quickly to keep up with orders and they don't seem harried despite it being a very busy holiday weekend with many soccer and other events going on in the region. They were patient, helpful, polite and efficient.
Great experience, I highly recommend the Germantown franchise.
A good fast place for a meal. I don't understand the Chick-fil-A hype but I appreciate they are an above average fast food stop. The waffle fries and Polynesian sauce are a win for me. They are also one of very few places that offer a gluten free bun option where the bun doesn't taste like cardboard.

I live in the neighborhood so location with easy parking convenient. The problem is with their gluten free buns. I have a gluten sensitivity but not allergy. I know their kitchen is not gluten free but after 30yrs of avoiding gluten I know when I've been wheated. Often stomach discomfort and face rash are the tell. I think that Shake Shack Kitchen is so busy that they occ use the wrong bun. My last burger had bacon on it although not ordered. 3 hrs later the stomah ache and rash. If you are eating gluten free avoid buns.Even when staff said the bun is gluten free and the order print out has charge for gluten free bun I'd be wary.
Experience a lively atmosphere with tasty options and refreshing drinks, making it a perfect stop at the airport.

The staff at the DCA airport was friendly, professional and knowledgeable about the food. My food was hot, fresh and tasty! I have celiac and at times am very cautious of where I eat but so glad I decided to try the food and I will be back! Also the iced tea was fresh and delicious!

Chick-fil-A is great for when it comes to gluten free dining. Their buns are sealed until the person opens it themselves to ensure no contamination. The bun itself is very good, soft and pillowy like a real bun and tastes good too. Grilled options to ensure that you get nothing that can be glutenized.
