Celiac Safety Score

55
Moderate Safety

The Wheelhouse exudes a cozy, welcoming vibe perfect for brunch or casual bites, but there's no clear indication that it offers dedicated gluten-free facilities or strict cross-contamination controls. The menu features classic comfort foods like sandwiches, mac & cheese, and breakfast options that could easily contain gluten. Without explicit safety protocols or dedicated prep areas, it’s hard to confidently recommend this spot for celiac diners seeking a safe gluten-free experience.
