Celiac Safety Score

50
Moderate Safety

Empório da Tapioca offers a selection of gluten-free items including bread, cookies, cupcakes, muffins, and desserts, making it a viable option for gluten-sensitive diners. However, the establishment does not have dedicated gluten-free preparation areas, which raises concerns about cross-contamination. With a perfect rating from a limited number of reviews, the establishment's gluten-free offerings are promising but lack explicit safety protocols for celiac diners. Overall, while there are gluten-free options available, the absence of dedicated facilities necessitates caution for those with celiac disease.
