Celiac safety assessment and key features

Sparrow Pizza Bar has carved out a real niche for gluten-free pizza lovers, offering a dedicated gluten-free fryer and a thoughtful selection of GF pizzas, fries, salads, wings, and even desserts. While it isn’t a 100% gluten-free facility, staff are consistently described as knowledgeable, attentive, and eager to accommodate celiac concerns—I've seen multiple reports of separate prep spaces for GF orders and clear menu marking. There's a sense of relief here: diners with celiac (myself included) often leave feeling safe, satisfied, and—let's be honest—a little surprised to find pizza this good that doesn’t leave you worrying for days. Just remember to double-check sauces (the white sauce isn’t GF) and always confirm your needs with your server; the care is there, but so is the wheat flour elsewhere in the kitchen.
