Celiac safety assessment and key features
The Herb Box makes a genuine effort to welcome gluten-free guests, with plenty of tempting options clearly labeled on the menu—from vibrant salads to gluten-free baked treats like that strawberry-lemon cake. That said, celiacs should tread carefully: this is not a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, and cross-contamination remains a real risk, especially with fried items and bread swaps. Some staff are attentive and try to accommodate, but there have been missteps—like sandwiches arriving on the wrong bread or confusion about fryer safety—which can rattle anyone who’s been burned before. If you’re highly sensitive, you’ll want to stick to naturally gluten-free dishes and have a very clear chat with your server (and maybe the chef) before ordering—otherwise, you might leave with more than just good memories.
