Gluten-free food at PPG Paints Arena

4 foods to ask about · 1 club only. The guide lists each food, where to find it, and what to ask.

Look for the Gluten Free Rustic Turkey Sandwich in the Fifth Avenue Food Hall near section 116, and ask how it is prepared.

What to ask at the stand
  1. Is this the gluten-free version? Can I see the label?
  2. Is it fried in the same oil as breaded food?
  3. Can you change gloves and use a clean surface?
  4. Is the gluten-free bun kept and toasted apart from regular buns?
