Made in a facility with non gluten free foods, however the staff went to great measures to minimise cross contamination. The lettuce was sourced from a new bag to avoid gluten crumbs. Gluten free by ingredient Mayonnaise was provided in a separate pouch. The bread roll was delicious and a medium size filled with their recommendation of Turkey Bacon Ranch. Very tasty meal.

Ate there twice (so far!) Didn't get glutened, but as they offer other products that do contain they won't guarantee a gluten free experience. I got the Veggie, and both times it was fantastic, the roll is so good. Best G.F sub I've ever had!

We picked up dinner here on our way back into the park one evening. I'd never eaten Firehouse subs before, but had heard great things from Gluten free IG influencers. I was excited to try and was not disappointed! This was the best GF bun/roll that I've ever had! I like that they label the items, so there's no guessing which sandwich belongs to who. Can't wait to eat again at one locally. Wish there was one closer in my area.

They have a gluten free sub bun, they put it on foil when toasting the sub so it doesn’t touch the rack. Change gloves when asked. Took precautions to make sure there was as little cross contamination as possible. Still the possibility since it is not a gluten free restaurant. Had an amazing experience and the staff were so kind.

Staff was super friendly and well informed. Gluten free bun tasted amazing, and he did say that the toaster is shared but the bread is placed on foil. Best sandwich I've had in months!

Great GF roll. Haven’t tried having them toast it, but I didn’t get sick from the two times I’ve gotten food from there.

Went here last week. When I asked for the gluten free bread they asked if it was preference or allergy! Which i find is very nice, they changed gloves. They use Schar bread. It was so delicious! Didn’t have any issues later that day. But I am NOT diagnosed celiac, but I am gluten intolerant due to other autoimmune conditions.
