Celiac safety assessment and key features

55%
Moderate

If you’re gluten-free, The Butcher’s Daughter in Williamsburg is a bit of a mixed bag—think vibrant vegetarian comfort with some celiac caveats. Their kitchen clearly celebrates plant-based, seasonal fare, and they do label many gluten-free options on their menu, which is always a relief to see. That said, it’s not a dedicated gluten-free facility, and there’s no mention of separate prep areas or written cross-contamination protocols, so ultra-sensitive celiacs should approach with caution. You might find safe havens in their smoothies or simpler salads, but if you’re looking for peace of mind alongside your avocado toast, you’ll want to chat with the staff and double-check every dish—because, honestly, we all know how stressful that can be when you just want to relax and enjoy your meal.
