TWENTYONEGRAINS

Multiple independent reviewers (including symptomatic and asymptomatic celiacs) confirm a dedicated gluten-free kitchen across two locations (Midtown and Brooklyn). The owner is reported to have celiac disease themselves by multiple reviewers ('the owner is coeliac'; 'Owner is a celiac like us'; 'the owner is very aware because of their own celiac disease diagnosis'). The venue's own description states 'all crafted in a dedicated gluten-free kitchen by a team fully trained in gluten-free safety protocols.' One reviewer reported a possible CC/glutening incident at a now-closed previous location (W 52nd St / Urbanspace food hall), and one Brooklyn reviewer observed what appeared to be non-certified Quaker oats in the kitchen. The owner confirmed each current location operates in a fully separated, dedicated kitchen space (CloudKitchens model). No formal accreditation found in sources.

Per-allergen evidence

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 0.78 ·

Insider-led, Owner, chef, staff, or a close friend or family member needs to avoid this allergen themselves; kitchen practice reflects that.

Multiple independent reviewers (including symptomatic and asymptomatic celiacs) confirm a dedicated gluten-free kitchen across two locations (Midtown and Brooklyn). The owner is reported to have celiac disease themselves by multiple reviewers ('the owner is coeliac'; 'Owner is a celiac like us'; 'the owner is very aware because of their own celiac disease diagnosis'). The venue's own description states 'all crafted in a dedicated gluten-free kitchen by a team fully trained in gluten-free safety protocols.' One reviewer reported a possible CC/glutening incident at a now-closed previous location (W 52nd St / Urbanspace food hall), and one Brooklyn reviewer observed what appeared to be non-certified Quaker oats in the kitchen. The owner confirmed each current location operates in a fully separated, dedicated kitchen space (CloudKitchens model). No formal accreditation found in sources.

Honest caveat: One symptomatic celiac reported a glutening at a now-closed prior location, and a separate Brooklyn reviewer spotted what appeared to be non-GF Quaker oats in the kitchen — ingredient sourcing should be verified directly with the venue.

Keto

confidence 0.30 ·

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.

One Brooklyn reviewer tags the venue as 'Good for keto'; however, a separate Midtown reviewer notes a companion on keto 'was not able to eat their food', suggesting keto suitability is inconsistent and menu-dependent. Confidence is low and users should verify specific items.
