Subway

Subway offers a pre-packaged gluten-free roll that is manufactured in a gluten-free environment, but the roll is prepared and toasted in a shared kitchen alongside gluten-containing breads. Staff are instructed to change gloves and clean the build area, but multiple independent reports note that this procedure is not always followed, and the chain's own allergen statement says it cannot guarantee any item is 100% free from cross-contact. Several coeliac bloggers advise against eating here due to the high risk of cross-contamination. If you choose to visit, ask staff to change gloves, use fresh deli paper, and avoid the toaster.

Honest caveat: Multiple independent coeliac bloggers report inconsistent staff adherence to cross-contamination procedures, and the chain's own policy states it cannot guarantee any item is allergen-free.
