Celiac Safety Score

75
Good for Celiac

Barcelona Wine Bar offers a lively, upscale Spanish dining experience with a surprisingly good range of gluten-free options, thanks to attentive staff who mark menus and make modifications. While it’s not a dedicated gluten-free facility, many servers are well-educated about cross-contact risks and actively help guests navigate the menu. Just keep in mind that the main menu isn’t explicitly gluten-free, and there's no dedicated fryer, so some caution is wise for highly sensitive celiacs.
